Climate Change : Leading causes of Global Warming and How to Solve it
Earth's Rising temperatures
Global warming means that the earth's surface temperature has increased more than the average. The rising temperatures lead to the climate crisis and the destruction of natural ecosystems.
Developing Countries
Developing countries like India and China rely heavily on coal for their electricity production. Gases like carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are known as greenhouse gas emissions. Carbon footprint is a parameter that is used to measure the impact of lifestyle choices on our climate system.
Greenhouse gas emissions
Greenhouse gas emissions are at an all-time high. One of the leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions is consumerism. CO2, CO and methane emissions are known as heat-trapping gases. They prevent the sun's rays from leaving the Earth's atmosphere.
Spreading awareness
It is essential to spread awareness among kids and young adults about mitigating climate change.
Climate scientists have been ringing their alarms ever since 1896 when Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius first talked about global warming in his assessment report. He later went on to win the Nobel prize in 1903 and is related to the young climate activist Greta Thunberg.
