We believe that the increasing carbon dioxide levels have resulted in climate change. We know that some people believe that it’s a hoax. But, we have scientific evidence supporting its existence.

Climate change is how the increased carbon dioxide levels due to overpopulation and overproduction of greenhouse gases is causing drastic change in environments such as polar ice caps melting or entire environments being destroyed.

One piece of evidence to prove climate change are the carbon dioxide levels. The amount of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere has been the highest in 3 million years.

that last year, 2016, was the warmest year on record. More proof of climate change is that last year, 2016, was the warmest year on record.

Another thing is that 11 percent of all global greenhouse gas emissions are caused by deforestation, cars and trucks.

People are bring affected in ways such as droughts, floods, heat waves extreme weather and sea level rise.

The constant drought in some countries have resulted in their agricultural economies being destroyed. The polluted air and water has also affected their health and wellbeing

Another thing is that 0.7% of the world’s forests are coastal mangroves. But they still store up to 5 times as much carbon a tropical rainforests.

So in conclusion, climate change is affecting the Earth in drastic ways. One of the key things to saving our planet is to convince our planet it’s a serious topic. Climate change is REAL!
