There are many things that contribute to global warming and our atmosphere. For example, there are greenhouse gasses that keep the heat in the atmosphere (CH4, CO2, H2O), and there are non greenhouse gasses that keep the heat out of our atmosphere (N2, O2, H2). Many things in our day to day lives contribute to our atmosphere. Like driving, what food we eat, buying things, and even the way we use our energy in our houses. It is important that we maintain a low carbon footprint so that greenhouse gasses are not released into the air. Some ways we can do that is not eating fast food, taking the bus or riding a bike, not buying things from fast fashion brands, or reducing your flights. Cows release methane, which is a greenhouse gas. Because of fast food our demand for cows has skyrocketed, forcing more methane into the atmosphere. Our way of getting around also affects the atmosphere because cars and planes emmit lots of CO2, taking the bus or riding your bike can save energy. It is very important that we stop the flow of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere because the global temperature is rising, affecting animals and natural habitats are being destroyed by high heats.
