In the previous lesson we learned about the effects of climate change. It help
you realize the consequences of personal and local actions to global and planetary
climate change. As a continuation, this lesson will focus on the steps to address the
problems of climate change. Then the students will make a stand on how the
consequences of one’s action affect the lives of others and the environment.
What’s In
Last meeting you learned that climate change is indeed occurring and is almost
certainly due to human activity. Human activities, such as agriculture and
deforestation, also contribute to the proliferation of greenhouse gases that cause
climate change. The rising sea levels due to the melting of the polar ice caps is caused
by climate change. The warming ocean temperatures are associated with stronger and
more frequent storms.
This time, we will discuss the steps to address the problems of climate change.
How you can personally contribute towards solving the problem of climate change and
what are the consequences of one’s action that affect the lives of others and the
environment

10 Possible Solutions for Climate Change
1. Stop Cutting down Trees: Believe it or not, cutting down trees is the prime
reason of the climate change. Planting new trees can quickly scale back the
speed of the emission of gases.
3. Less use of Fossil Fuels: The high discharges of the greenhouses gases are
diminishing the ozone layer which gives global warming. It is then one of the
major causes of climate change.
4. Unplug your Devices: In almost every house, there are at least a dozen of
appliances which includes air conditioner, television, microwave, washing
machine and others. These devices lead to global warming, hence the climate
change.
18
8. Experimenting the Earth: There are many experiments being done on Earth
which might control climate change. Some ideas like, Geo-engineering, radical
interventions to either block sunlight or reduce greenhouse gas are probably
the last options to control the climate change.
10. Personal Solutions to Global Warming: There are many steps which
everyone can take in order to control the climate change. A small step by
anyone can make a big difference.
Drive less and cycle more while going to school or work.
Upgrade your refrigerator and air conditioner, especially if they
are more than five years old.

Directions: Explain the consequences of one’s action that affect the lives of others
and the environment.
