What is climate change?

Climate change is when the carbon level is going up and:

 

  • The temperature is going up

  • The sea level is rising

  • The land is disappearing

  • There are not as many homes for arctic animals

  • People need to move house because of sea level rise

  • Freshwater is also disappearing

 

 

All these things are not good and if it keeps happening, it will actually be the end of the world.

We can defer this by

  • Growing more trees

  • Building power stations

  • Using solar power instead of burning coal

  • Use public transport or riding bikes instead of cars

 

These things will help the temperature to go down instead of up.
