Climate change is caused by burning fossil fuels and electricity usage, which release carbon dioxide that traps heat in the atmosphere and warms the Earth. Small actions like turning off lights and devices when not in use, recycling, reducing waste, reusing items, and choosing low-carbon transportation options can help prevent further climate change. If everyone made these small changes, climate change would cease to be a problem.

3. Most climate changes happen when fossil fuels
are burned and sent to the atmosphere. It
can also be caused by too much electricity
being used and the smoke coming from a
car can effect climate change as well! The
earth uses carbon dioxide (CO2) to trap
heat. Electricity, fossil fuels and cars also
produce CO2. This makes the earth warmer
and upsets the earth. It makes floods, melts
ice caps and causes big problems. Even 1/3
of food is wasted in the western world!!! The
more CO2 one produces is called a carbon
footprint.

5. It’s easy to prevent climate change! Even if its just a small
thing, like turning off computers or lights, it could make
a very big difference. Start by turning off electric devices
when your done with them (because it also costs lots of
money to keep them on all day!) and try using the three
R’s (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle). Instead of driving to
school, walk or cycle. If you live far away from school, at
least drive closer to school and walk from there, or you
could even get the bus! Maybe you could buy an electric
car if you want to. Recycling rain water and having a
two minute shower is another way of preventing this.
Stop printing. If everybody on earth did all this, climate
change would never be an issue!!!
