Climate change is a huge question in the world today. Is it real? How is it happening? How do we stop it? From my knowledge, climate change is a very real thing that is caused primarily by humans. There are countless experiments and tests done to solve this mystery. From what scientists have gathered, global warming is caused by emissions of Carbon Dioxide. Carbon dioxide is called a greenhouse gas, which means that it is absorbing the heat that is supposed to be going back into space. For this reason, Earth is becoming warmer and having a bad effect on life.
Climate change is contributing to wildfires and glaciers melting. With the increase of heat, dry land and shrub is more susceptible to spark a fire. Once a fire is starts, it travels rapidly because much of the land, especially Arizona is hot and dry. These wildfires lead to the melting of glaciers because ashes from the fires is being traveled by the wind to cold places like Antarctica and Greenland. When the ashes land there, it makes the ice black, which attracts more sun and starts making the glaciers melt. If t he Earth continues this process, global warming will continue and who knows what shape the Earth will be in later on. Humans are the only ones who can change global warming. If we band together to not produce as much carbon dioxide, global warming just may vanish
