Coal Mining contributes to the greenhouse effect because of two reasons when we dig up coal, it releases massive of methane into the Earth's atmosphere and it is from the coal itself. We burn coal to make electricity and this causes to release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
75% of the carbon dioxide will not sway for the next thousand years and 25% of the carbon dioxide will stay forever and this can cause some massive bad effects.
Rising Temperature
The temperature has increased over the past few decades and has increased significantly in this time period because of the burning of fossil fuels.
- Melting Ice
- Because of the increased temperature, the North Pole and South Pole have signicantly melting and increasing the sea levels that risk of us well-being.
- Heat Waves
- Due to the increased temperature, now it has more intense of heat waves that can risks of our health
- Disruption of the Ecosystem
- The change of the temperature can be affected by the disruption and behaviour of the plants and animals, some of them may struggle to adapt and die.
Global Warming has caused us many problems that we have to solved before it becomes too late, These are some solution to stop Global Warming
Saving Energy
Almost all of our energy comes from coal, oil, and gas that contributes to the greenhouse effects. We can use less energy by lowering heating and switching LED lights bulbs. Unplug chargers, electronics and appliances when they are not being used to save energy.
Vehicles
When we are traveling to the mall, the store, or going to our friends house, we use cars or motorcycles that burned petrol and diesel that produce tons of carbon dioxide and for longer distances, we use trains or buses but they also produce Carbon dioxide. We can use electric vehicles like electric cars, electrics motorcycles, or we can walk to our destinations.
