Climate Change

Humans are one of the causes of the current problem of climate change. Cars are a useful source of transportation for most people, however burning of fossil fuels , and the releasing of carbon dioxide is a leading cause of climate change. These pollutants add up with other things to produce heat- trapping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, trapping heat near the surface of the planet. These gases result in emissions of aerosols that absorb and emit heat and reflect light.
