Stop Global Warming: Save Our Globe

All the countries across the globe are planning on how to fight against global warming. There is no doubt in the fact that global warming can one day be life threatening. Global warming occurs due to greenhouse effect. As a result of greenhouse effect greenhouse gases are release in the atmosphere. These gases trap the heat and create global warming. It has not happened overnight. This process has taken place slowly and gradually. Also, steps can be taken by individuals or by few people in groups to start the fight against global warming. This will not just help us save our lives but also save our planet.

In order to stop global warming, below mentioned things are be under taken:
Point 1: Plant more trees: Plant more and more trees around your house and work place. This will help you I great ways. More trees will not just release oxygen in the atmosphere around, but will also absorb harmful gases like carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases. It traps the heat around and can retain it for years. This leads to increase in global warming effect.
Point 2: Stop deforestation: We should try our level best to stop deforestation. By stopping people from cutting down the trees, we will ensure that the atmosphere around is healthy and pure. This would also mean that harmful gases like methane and carbon dioxide are getting absorbed by the trees. Apart from air pollution, the trees also save us from soil erosion.
Point 3: Save power: We should always try and save power. We should switch off the electrical appliances when not using. Less consumption of power would mean less burning of fossils. Burning fossils are the biggest contributor of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Point 4: Use recycled paper: Instead of new paper every time, start using recycled paper. This will save more trees from cutting down.
Point 5: Stop using plastic bags: We do shopping all across the globe. There are many outlets still using plastic bags. These bags add up to the global garbage and when burnt, they release a lot of harmful gases in the atmosphere. We should try and use cloth bags to save our planet.
Point 6: Change the bulb: A normal light bulb consumes a lot of energy. We should replace the light bulbs with fluorescent bulbs as they live longer and consume less power.
Point 7: Carpool: People should start making carpool a habit. This will save fuel consumption. It will save some fuel for our future generation. Also, fewer cars on road would mean less traffic, less accidents and of course less air pollution.
Point 8: Fewer power plants: We should close some of the power plants and go for energy or power produced in eco friendly manner. Power plants generate power by burning fossil fuels. The major one is coal. Now, when coal is burnt, carbon dioxide is released in the atmosphere in large quantities. Hence, it should be avoided.
