Global warming awareness Global warming is a big problem right now. The increase in temperature leads to lower air. The greenhouse effect supports the idea that the ozone layer affects the growth of carbon dioxide and methane. The above generalizations about the same theories as to facilitate and answer questions. The temperature rise affects coastal communities. It is important to understand how coastal communities and the value of residential and commercial properties in low-lying areas will be affected.

Solutions The most important thing we can do to reduce carbon pollution is to set a specific, feasible limits on the major sources like cars and power plants. The Environmental Protection Agency has the most responsibility from making it for carbon pollution from all major sources.
8
Part of being globally aware, is to know that the largest source of carbon pollution in the U.S. is hardly 40 percent of emissions is the power plants. The Environmental Protection Agency needs to know that the targets are reducing carbon pollution from the power plants that still exist. This can be done in a manageable way that is fair for every state and that would happen in all important reductions.
10
Global warming is the increase of Earth's average surface temperature due to greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels or from deforestation, which trap heat that would otherwise escape from Earth. Greenhouse gases keep heat extremely close to the earth’s surface making it suitable for humans and animals. How
12
There is more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere now than there was in the last 800,000 years. The U.S. limit for 6 billion tons of carbon dioxide every year would be the total, 40 percent of that comes from power plant emissions alone.
