Ways To Reduce Global Warming
a. BIOFUELS - Biofuels are fuels produced from biomass (material that is or was recently living) - Biofuels are burnt to release energy, which produces CO2. - The amount of CO2 produced is the same as the amount of CO2 taken in when the material was growing. - So no net increase in atmospheric CO2 concentrations when biofuels are burnt.
b. REFORESTATION - more trees, more CO2 removed by photosynthesis - CO2 is converted into carbon compounds and stored as plant tissues in trees - more carbon is kept out of atmosphere
