Summary Of Kids Trees And Climate Change By Mark Hertsgaard
In his essays “Kids, Trees, and Climate Change” and “The Green Dream” Mark Hertsgaard informs us of a current would issue that is occurring that was created by humans, global warming. Americans should take global warming as a serious matter because it could extinct some plants or animals due to the climate warming up which is not suitable for some species. Also it creates ice caps to melt at rapid speeds which could lead to parts of the states that live on a border of the ocean to flood.
Mark describes the issue and advises what needs to be done by first grabbing our attention. In “The Green Dream” he stated that each year, the United States government purchase 56,000 new vehicles from Detroit for official use. Washington could bring help bring economical cars to use if it told Detroit. It would have to on hybrid-electric engines and/or hydrogen fueled. Mark also talks about the most polluted cities in the world. Nine of ten cities with the most polluted air are in China. By reading both of the passages and by role playing, Americans should understand the issue that is currently going on with pollution and …show more content…
how it can affect many lives and species in this planet. If nothing is done of this worldwide matter, then there will traumatic consequences. Mark asks us to not let this cause drift away without looking at it, but to step in and make change to the world and prevent it being destroyed by us.
According to Mark, “Most people want to help want to do right by the environment.” So he informs us how every single one of us could help in this cause.
A great way to control global warming is by planting millions of trees to help clean the air from the fumes and exhaust that come from factories and vehicles. Trees take in the carbon dioxide and produces clean air, there are no other ways to create clean air other than using nature itself to reduce or maintain the level of it. He also states that the deployment of wind and solar technologies has been skyrocketing which in result, Denmark has more of a quarter of electricity from wind, aiming for 50 percent, Lowa at twenty-five percent as well as California. Another way to maintain a healthy environment is the use of electric cars, charged largely by the solar powers, which removes all reliance on
gas.
In conclusion, Mark notified of the reader of the issue that has come up with a large amount of pollution that leads to global warming. He doesn't want to see his planet slowly destroying itself and therefore asks us to make a change, plant trees, save energy by purchasing energy efficient bulbs, also buy using hybrid-electric cars to reduce amount of fumes that come from cars. According to Mark, if action isn't taken for this matter, there will be catastrophic consequences.
