Global Warming
Global warming is completely controlled by human beings. The Earth's temperature increases when carbon dioxide is emitted into the atmosphere. Although the difference may only be a few degrees, this can severely effect nature. Ocean temperatures rise, which can damage the marine ecosystem composed of plants, fish, and sea mammals. The polar ice caps will eventually melt, leading to rising sea levels, that will soon cover many low lying cities in places like the United States, England, and other countries around the world. Global warming can be restricted by new technologies like solar panels, electric cars, or even reduce the amount of beef factories there are (which lead to methane gas being formed). There are many solutions for this problem, but they will only be successful if humans can abide and adapt to new changes.
