Climate change: whose problem is it?

The reason of the climate change is global warming and global warming is caused by carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide is let out from cars, jets, trucks, and so on. Some people say climate change is not happening but we do not realize it is happening. We should believe scientists for this theory on climate change because they must have arrived at this conclusion after a lot of tests and research.

The effect of climate change is that the arctic poles are melting, it is getting hotter and, most importantly, the ozone layer is ‘tearing’. If the climate change goes on like this in the future, the temperature will be higher than it is today and will still increase if we use cars that use fossil fuels. The rich people should spend more money on planting plants to decrease the effect of climate change. The government should lessen down cutting of trees.

Some adults do not care about climate change and some who care think they can not do anything about climate change. We can not just rely on new technology to save us; we also have to take some actions ourselves on this issue. Or else, by the time we are adults, it will be really ‘hot’.
