One of the main causes of climate change is
pollution.
Pollution is caused by human activities.
The burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil,
is releasing more and more carbon dioxide in
the atmosphere.
Fumes from our cars, buses, lorries and factories
are also polluting our atmosphere.
As a result, the Earth is becoming warmer and
the climate is changing.
How do you feel when your body temperature increases?
Imagine now what is happening to our planet when it gets hotter.
What should we do?
Reduce the use of fossil fuels and
encourage the use of renewable
sources of energy: energy from
the sun, wind and water.
What can you do?
Switch off the lights and electric
appliances when not in use.
Save water, do not waste it.
Plant trees.
