Climate change is the greatest environmental challenge facing the world today.
Rising temperatures will affect weather patterns, sea levels and the frequency of extreme weather events – and scientists have become increasingly convinced that human actions are to blame.
As our demand for energy has increased, the amount of carbon dioxide that’s released into the atmosphere has increased too – and that’s the main cause of climate change.
To reduce the threat of climate change, we must reduce the amount of carbon dioxide that we produce.
