One of the biggest concerns I have for our environment is with Global Warming. It is having a colossal negative impact on our environment and the things that inhabit it. Global warming is causing glaciers in the artic to melt and even more water to the ocean. This is bad because it not only destroys habitat for artic animals, killing them in the process, it is also making sea levels rise that could cause more destruction and deaths among people as well.
Global warming is caused by gases being trapped in Earth’s atmosphere and collecting more and more heat that is thrown back down on the planet. Some of the biggest greenhouse gas contributions are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide. The only way to stop this is by the collective decision of mankind to use cleaner alternatives for everyday appliances than they are right now.
In conclusion, global warming is one of the biggest contributors to the downfall of our environment. I truly believe that for the good of our planet, mankind need to come together and help fight the increasing greenhouse gases to help put a foot in the door to saving our planet.
