There are many ideas circulating about global warming these days and I thought I would clear them up by exposing the facts. While it is true that humans haven't caused global warming it is true that it is a natural process that humans have sped up. The problem is that the process has been sped up to the extent that it is harmful to our environment. Ultimately we can't stop global warming but we can eliminate the factors that speed it up.
The energy that comes into our homes to power the lights and the refrigerator all comes from a power plant. In the process of making electricity that power plant ends up polluting our planet with carbon dioxide. When the carbon dioxide enters our air it traps the heat from the sun making our atmosphere to heat up. This is only one way that the human race has sped up global warming.
We can fix the pollution problem that speeds up global warming by installing water heaters and solar panels on our houses and buildings. We can also drive electric and hybrid cars to reduce fuel emissions or we could walk and ride bikes more.
Global warming is a complicated issue but its harmful effects can be reduced with some effort and desire.
