Greenhouse Effect

Greenhouse Effect 

• The greenhouse effect states that the emission of greenhouse gases (pollution) is destroying the ozone layer. 

        • Gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) are becoming more prominent in the atmosphere because of deforestation, when these gases are produced they trap UV rays in the atmosphere which is why global warming is happening.

• When we emit these gases more than we should we are destroying our planet, so for future generations they won't be able to live the way we do now.

• Deforestation is one factor that strongly influences the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.

• Also the ocean absorbs a lot of the carbon that we release into the air, not all of it but a lot, this changes the water and makes it more acidic leading to the extinction of species and sick marine life.

Reflection 

I really enjoyed writing about this topic because I had researched about global warming and other political environmental issues in the past. One thing I found interesting that I didn't know before was that the ocean absorbs the gases we emit and that is also destructing the oceans because we also pollute/liter and stuff like that in the ocean so it jut adds to the harm. I also didn't know that deforestation was a big issue with global warming.
