Although their technical meanings differ (i.e., global warming refers to increases in average global surface-level temperatures; in contrast, climate change encompasses myriad altered climatic patterns resulting from anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions; Environmental Protection Agency [EPA], 2012), these terms are frequently used interchangeably in public discourse, including in news…show more content…
People can reduce emission of greenhouse gases this will stabilize the levels of gases in the atmosphere. Decreasing fossil fuel burning is critical. Humans can develop clean energy including solar, wind, and geothermal energy. This will helps to reduce the amount of coal and oil burned in powering electrical generating plants,( NASA ,2012). Transportations options like all the cars, trucks, plains and trains that had a massive effects on the climate. If people will limit their use on transportation it will also reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Lowering thermostats in the winter and using energy –efficient light bulbs will also reduce the effects on global warming. If we as human do not change the way we live it will leave this earth with a shortage of food and water and without the food and water people and animals will not
