    I know that climate change is caused by greenhouse gases and the green house effect.The green house effect is made out of different gases. One of the gases is carbon dioxide. All living things have a carbon footprint. That means you give of carbon dioxide when you breathe. Carbon dioxide along with other gases creates the green house effect.Which is when the suns light and heat gets trapped on the Earth’s surface. That is what I know about climate change.

    One way we are causing climate change is we are polluting the air. One way we are polluting the air is by the gases that are coming from factory’s that is bad for us and the environment.

    Burning of fossil fuels produce carbon dioxide and other green house gasses. A little bit of carbon dioxide is good but, too much carbon dioxide is bad for the environment. Carbon dioxide traps heat from the sun in are atmosphere which is good but, the more carbon dioxide our factories are putting out the more green house gasses are trapping heat making Earth warmer thus causing climate change .

    I know that the greenhouse effect makes the carbon dioxide go back to the air. Factory’s are bad it pollutes the air. The glaciers melt which gives more water to the earth but can create floods.

    The Greenhouse effect is like a blanket over Earth. It traps in the heat and keeps Earth warmer and warmer and warmer until its TOO hot. The Greenhouse effect is caused by all the bad gases like carbon dioxide get released into the air. A little is fine but there is too much of it the atmosphere. Trees can absorb a lot of carbon dioxide but since the clearing of forest so much is released into are atmosphere.

    the climate has gotten 40% warmer in the past 200 years. This is because of human activities like cars factories and cutting down trees. These activities are making more green house gases that are trapping the warmth.

    I think climate change is when the climate changes. People can help if they stop cutting down trees and using there cars a lot. So carbon dioxide doesn’t get in the air and warm up the earth because the earth has gotten 40% warmer in the last 200 years.

    I know that when something dies it decomposes and the remains then turn into oil. This happen when the heat and pressure from the ground form the oil.

    I know that the industrel revolution started global warming with all the factories popping up making all the air pollution which makes the green house gases and give us global.

    Climate change is when the earth starts warming up. This is happening because when people are working in factors the machines are burning coal and is causing co2 to go into the air and co2 in not good in the air. But when trees are alive and not cut down the trees suck in the co2. But when people are cutting down more trees there will be more co2 in the air and that is not good.
