25 January Quiz

• What causes climate change and how can we improve this issue?

1. This question is interesting to me because the well-being of the Earth is important. We have an obligation to protect and improve the environment that we live in, as well as rectify issues that we caused.

2. This topic is one that is often spoken about in the public eye. However, many US citizens, as well as citizens of other countries, have little knowledge on the topic. It is necessary for people to educate themselves on such a prominent problem.

3. As previously stated this question needs to be answered:

• Gain a better understanding of the "why" and "how" behind climate change
• Educate the public on a highly discussed topic
• encourage others to take steps to improve the situation
