    Climate change is created by cars, factories, cutting down trees. We can stop Climate change by riding a bike and not using car as much.

    Well, I think we could… Maybe, we could use less electronics and not charge them that much because, that wastes electricity and we need to generate more by making a nuclear power plant! I also think we could also stop using hover boards so they DON’T blow up! Finally I think we could stop making so much new products so the factory’s don’t need to make as much and less smoke goes into the environment! That’s just SOME ways we can make the world a better place ☻
