The Human : Global Murderer

According to the report of the United Nations, in
near future, the temperature will increase by 1.8
degrees. The sea level will rise to 58cm. 3 billion
people will suffer from water shortage. We will
see extreme weather conditions such as more
intense storms, more rain, and drier droughts. So
most of the animals and plants will become
extinct and the balance of the ecosystem will get
worse. All these will happen because of global
warming.
People caused this by releasing heat-trapping
gases into the atmosphere. But it is in our hands
to correct this situation. There are so many things
we can do. At first, we should use recyclable
products because wasting natural resources will be the end of us. We should replace our bulbs with eco-friendly bulbs
otherwise, they will consume a lot of energy. We should also plant bamboo trees because they can absorb harmful gases.
If we don’t take precautions and slow down global warming, we will suffer from its results. So we should shoulder
responsibilities not only for ourselves but also for the next generations.
