Greenhouse Gases: What Can You Do?

Greenhouse Gases: What Can You Do?

By: Cam

Greenhouse gases 

First off I’ll name the MAN-MADE things that make greenhouse gases, such as vehicles, factories, boats, and airplanes. Deforestation is another cause for greenhouse gases. According to You can save the planet by: Jacquie Wines, greenhouse gases come in many forms, like water vapors, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, and ozone gases. These gases trap more of the suns rays in earth’s atmosphere and warms us up. 

How you can help?

The best way to decrease the amount of greenhouse gases there are is, is to ride your bike or walk instead of driving places. Some people think they have an excuse because they live farther away from town, but if that’s the case public transportation is better than driving your own car. Another really good way is to get an electric or push lawn mower because according to the book You can save the planet 40 cars driving on the road for a year equals 1 lawn mower that runs on gasoline running for 1 year; it’s the same amount of pollution. 

What I plan to do 

I plan to ride my bike more places and turn off lights that aren’t needed.  Please post a comment telling what you do, or plan to do, to help reduce greenhouse gases.
