Climate change is caused by greenhouse gases

In order to prevent the climate change, we must reduce the emission of these gases.

So we can plant more trees and develop new energy like windy energy or solar energy to replace traditional fossil ['f?s?l] fuels.

It is caused by the greenhouse effect. The sun heats the earth surface, the earth radiates the energy back out into space, so the radiation gets trapped in the atmosphere by greenhouse gases. This trapped radiation warms the atmosphere, and so it goes back down to the earth, making it hotter than normal. This is greenhouse effect. This effect is caused by greenhouse gases like methane and CO2 in stratosphere. Because of human activities and especially the burning of the fossil fuels.

Global warming can bring many disasters. For example, droughts, hurricanes, bushfires, shrinking polar ice and coastal flooding. Ice cap’s melting, sea level’s rising, means cities such like London, New York, Sydney and Tokyo will be soon merged.

So we can plant more trees and develop new energy like windy ene

rgy or solar energy to replace traditional fossil fuels.
