Climate Change is Happening!

By Bethany and Presley


        Today more than 15,000 scientists from 184 countries  have issued a global warning that states “There needs to be change in order to save earth” when a warning like that is issued to the public from over 15,000 scientists from almost every country in the world, it should not be ignored and should be recognized by all humans, if they care about our future. So why are people ignoring? Besides warnings, nothing environmentally catastrophic has happened to our area.


     Although we don’t see these changes, it doesn't mean they aren't happening. Facts and stats don’t lie, the amount of carbon dioxide is higher than at any time in the last 800,000 years. Did you know that burning one gallon of gasoline puts 19.64 pounds of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide traps heat in the earth's atmosphere, thus contributing to climate change. Think about how much gas we use for our cars, or how much your parents use. It all adds up.
