    issue. Many scientists believe that our production of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases is having a heating effect. On the atmosphere‚ this could be very dangerous for human life. There are several things that we can do the solve problems of global warming. First solution is to stop producing carbon dioxide. We can do by switching from oil‚ coal‚ and gas to renewable energy. Another solution is to plant more trees. Trees absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. Last solution is to use less energy

    to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting from pollution. Atmosphere carbon dioxide (CO2) is known as a Greenhouse gases‚ which means the increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere can lead to global warming which could affect the world’s environment. Scientists have determined that humans are responsible for the increases by use of cars‚ industries‚ and forest fires. An increase in the amount of carbon in the air results in more acidic rain which may cause harm to the environment
