Climate change is one of the most important issues facing us today. Scientists have shown that starting with the Industrial Revolution our increasing use of fossil fuels is increasing the warmth of planet Earth we are in.In fact pushing mother Earth in new territory at a rate that she is likely never seen before. We need to change and we mean everybody as individuals. The most powerful weapon we have in this battle is the ability to control our own carbon footprint and remember as individuals we number in the billions. Our carbon footprint refers to the greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere because of what we do or by what our greenhouse gases released. Carbon dioxide is the most dominant of the greenhouse gases we produce. EXPLANAΤΙ ON In what way does this evidence support the assertion?
