A major cause of global warming is the green house effect. Also burning fossil fuels emits gases that are harmful for our environment. Your probably asking what can we do? Well there is many things that can be done. The goal is to bring global warming under control by lessening the release of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. In the US and Canada there is over 10,000 pounds of CO2 per person per year. This is needs to slow down. The best way to help is reduce our use of oil, coal, and gasoline and become more energy effeicent. To become more energy efficient you can switch to energy saving lights and turn up the temperature in the summer. To use less gasoline americans need fuel efficient cars and start carpooling. Actions need to take place and need to take place soon. Whether people start using solar energy, recycle, plant trees, and so on it needs to happen
