Climate Change is real, don't say it isn't. Climate Change is caused by greenhouse gases entering the atmosphere, and letting the warmth of the sun in, but not out. Now you're probably wondering if there is a cure to this, and there is. It is actually very simple. Hey! Stay with me here, there is a simple cure, and if everyone on the Earth does this, global warming can stop to an extent. It's basically just stopping using greenhouse gases, and CO2 or Carbon Dioxide is one of these greenhouse gases. Cars that run on things like batteries or something are one of the things that are actually friendly to the environment, and maybe the atmosphere, ha! I'll begin to list some greenhouse gases so you can see where we are going. -Fossil Fuels, Methane, Nitrous oxide, water vapor (Surprised?) and ozone.
There are many things that we can do, from using electric cars to using other methods of getting energy. Yes, Canada's oil exports are one of the things keeping it's economy still alive and well, but oil and gas can be possibly a greenhouse gas! So what can we export? Well that brings us into our next thing we can do. You're probably wondering what I'm talking about, and I'll lead you to it. Electric Cargo Planes, and Ships, surely sounds hard to make, but still possible. I mean, boats and ships run on, well you know! Oil! Now anything that burns basically becomes a greenhouse gas. Alright, so surely electric planes and ships will be a hard thing to make, since it will need something to insert energy into it. Well simple enough, you can add something like a big battery, so when the ship is charging, you can add some sort of plug into it, I don't know. Now same thing with the plane, just add a big battery onto it, and the engines will run on electricity! Now these are my guesses, they probably won't work and will take years to invent something like a electric plane or something.
We are not alone in solving global warming, NASA and other space corporations know about global warming and are trying to figure out how to solve global warming!
Here is NASA's website for more information!

With a vision of strengthening Green Initiative and developing lush green landscape and paradise with fresh air .
Global climate change is affecting the environment. Glaciers will shrink, ice on rivers and lakes will break up, plants and animals will shift and tree numbers will be decreased. loss of sea ice, increase in sea level and longer, more intense heat.
The global temperatures will continue to rise for decades, largely due to greenhouse gases produced by human activities. the amount of heat-trapping gases emitted globally, and how sensitive the Earth’s climate is to those emissions.
Droughts in the Southwest and heat waves everywhere are possible to become more intense, and cold waves less intense everywhere.
Summer temperatures will continue rising, and a reduction of soil moisture, which would make the heat waves worse .
The contributions of human and natural causes to these increases are still not certain. Hurricane-associated storm intensity and rainfall rates to increase if the climate continues to warm.

The Earth would still be warming, so it will be hotter than it is today. It will take a long time to replace the harmful gasses of earth. In the coming years people will experience decreasing of water in more than 500 cities. In these 30 years the number of hurricanes and storms have been doubled from the past decades. People are facing extreme heat in more than 970 cities. Agricultural activities are getting damaged due to less water supplies .

The affects on the Globe are getting worse, Melting Glaciers, Intense Heat waves, less land, are all examples of what global warming is doing to the world.
Summer, you may think it is the best of the 4 seasons, but there are some things that ruin it. Heat waves, sun-burns, dehydration, and many, many more. Once in Australia the ground melted just because of a heat wave!
Our Winters are beginning to not be so winter-like, it's turning more into Fall instead of Winter. It is possible that this is the effects of global warming beginning to take effect on our Winter. It's clearly possible for our Winters to go all 'Bye-bye!'
In 2018 there was a deadly heat wave in Japan and South Korea. It has claimed 119 lives in Japan and 29 lives in South Korea.
https://www.cnn.com/2018/08/04/world/climate-change-deadly-summer-wxc-intl/index.html This is a website about heat waves and forest fires. There were deadly forest fires in Greece, America and Arctic Sweden. At least eight lives have been taken in California and ninety- one people dead in Greece.
Right now, it is not too late to fix Global Climate Change. We can do so many things to stop Climate Change from going to an extreme level, but now, we haven't done anything. And even if we do stop Climate Change in whole, the effects of Climate Change wouldn't be reverse to the weather of the 1900's for a long, long time.
Now, it's time we should do something. No, I'm not saying to protest against the Government, I'm saying to stop using gadgets that produce CO2, and stop cutting down the trees. Why stop cutting down the trees? One, the trees provide a home for birds and other animals. Two, they turn CO2 (Also known as Carbon Dioxide) into oxygen. This process is known as; Photosynthesis. Something I'd like to add, is that Climate Change isn't going at a steady rate, it's speeding up because of how much CO2 emissions we use in our day to day lives.
Something I'd like to add, the Amazon Rainforest is shrinking. Why is Earth's largest rainforest being destroyed? For some time in human history, deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest was mainly the product of farmers who cut down trees for production of crops for their families and local usage, but it is possible that Climate Change could be causing this too, and if the deforestation continues, millions of animals can loose their homes, and even family!
Thank you for reading this, and spread the message about Climate Change if you can.
Earth covered with Plastic...
Plastic is a highly useful and conventional material and is also one of the greatest environmental problem, yet everyone in the world is dependent on it in infinite ways. For more than 50 years, plastic production has continued to rise. Over time, as plastic has increased in durability, it has gradually replaced materials like glass and metal in a number of industries. Complete adaptation of human behavior towards plastic is difficult to attain, as only 9% of waste is recycled. Therefore in addition to these 4 solutions to the plastic waste problem (reduce,reuse,recycle and refuse) we need a fundamental change in order to make a noticeable impact on the plastic waste seeping into our environment.
