Carbon Dioxide and Green House Effect

The green house effect is associated with carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is the major cause of the green house effect along with other gases such as methane. The green house effect is when the radiation from the sun is reflected on Earth, and the radiation is supposed to be able to bounce out to into space, but then it is trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere; heat is trapped and therefore causes Global Warming. Generally, Global Warming is worse when there is more energy being trapped in the atmosphere.
Years ago, we could feel the cool breeze but now all we can feel on our skin is heat. There are no more cool breezes, as there are less trees and more carbon dioxide. With more trees being cut down every day all over the world, Global Warming is going to get worse. However, if we can do something to help to save the Earth, I am sure that we can prevent further damage. Still, we need all the help we can get and it is best to have everyone on Earth to contribute towards saving the Earth. It is very important to understand Global Warming and the effects on all of us, because we live on Earth and Earth is the only planet that can support us all. There is no way we want to lose that!
