A Greener Planet begins with me!

Almost everyone is talking about Climate Change… what is it? How does it affect me? What does it have to do with me as a human  leaving on planet earth? What is Global Warming? Well,Global Warming is the long-term hearting of Earth’s surface, due to human activities, primarily fossil fuel burning, which increases heat-trapping greenhouse gas levels in Earth’s atmosphere.(United Nations)
This causes a rise in temperature which affects our planet negatively, where we experience droughts wild fires, heart conditions and asthma.
What could be the cause? Well I would guess YOU. How are you the cause?
*Deforestation which is the cutting down of trees on a large scale
*Transportation that runs on fossil fuels 
*Industries and Powering Buildings that draw coal, oil and natural gas for heating and cooling.. which contributes highly on greenhouse gases.
