    Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere. Burning fossil fuels and agriculture are major sources of these gases. The effects of global warming include rising sea levels from thermal expansion and melting ice sheets, more frequent extreme weather events, and impacts on animal habitats and biodiversity. Solutions include reducing energy usage, adopting the 3Rs of reduce, reuse and recycle, lowering carbon footprints by using public transport and planting trees, and switching to sustainable clean energy. Vietnam emitted 305,200,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases in 2019. Protecting the earth requires collective action.

    Introduction
    What is ‘Global Warming’
    What is Global Warming?

    ● Global warming is the rise in the Earth’s temperature.


    CAUSES
    Greenhouse
    gases
    • Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are
    called greenhouse gases.

    • Common greenhouse gases are: Carbon dioxide


    (CO2 ), Methane (CH4) and Nitrous oxide (N2O)
    Sources of greenhouse gases
    Burning fossil fuels
    Industry, and transportation release
    carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

    Agriculture and Farming


    Animals produce methane. Fertilisers
    also produce nitrious oxide.

    Commercial and
    Residential
    The use of certain products that contain
    greenhouse gases, and the handling of
    waste.
    305,200,000

    This is the amount of greenhouse

    Deforestation & Tree-Clearing
    ● Plants and trees play an important role in regulating the climate
    ● However humans clear vast areas of vegetation around the world for farming, urban and infrastructure
    development or to sell tree products such as timber and palm oil

    Solutions
    What is ‘Global Warming’
    1. Save energy

    ● Invest in energy-
    saving appliances.
    ● Pull the plugs
    ● Have ‘green’ habits
    such as doing
    more outdoor
    activities
    2. Try the 3Rs
    Reduce
    Try to reduce the amount of waste
    you produce.

    Reuse
    Think of ways you could reuse
    household appliances.

    Recycle
    his enables the materials you
    throw away to be used again by
    making them into new products.
    3. Reduce carbon footprints

    ● Plant trees.
    ● Use public
    transport and
    cycle more
    often.
    ● Switch to
    sustainable,
    clean energy.
