    methane, manmade CFC’s), greenhouse effect,
    manmade heat trap, the thinning of the ozone layer,

    warm, cause heat waves/ extreme floods/ droughts/
    tornadoes/ natural disasters, animal/ plant species
    become endangered/extinct, water/food shortages,
    lands below sea level disappear, desertification,
    some areas become uninhabitable

     SOLUTIONS: introduce laws/regulations, reach


    international agreement, sustainable development,
    use renewable energy sources (solar/ wind/ water/
    geothermal power, biomass), use energy efficient
    appliances/ rechargeable batteries/ public transport,
    plant trees, produce less waste, recycle, buy fresh
