Carbon Dioxide is a greenhouse gas that acts like blanket around the earth trapping heat inside our atmosphere. The burning of fossil fuels produce CO2 which speeds up the process of the greenhouse effect. The average global temperature is rising and this can bring many problems to us. Global warming endangers our health jeopardizes our national security, and threatens basic human needs. Some impacts that global warming has are, record high temperatures, rising seas, and severe flooding and droughts-are already increasingly common. Solutions are more fuel efficient vehicles and renewable energy like solar energy and wind farms to create energy and reduce CO2 emissions. Help make a change one signature at a time.
