- Release sulphur dioxide, harmful for living things
- Greenhouse Effect
- Greenhouse gases form a 'blanket' around the atmosphere
- Trap heat in the Earth
- Causes global warming, increase of temperature by 1 degrees
- Sea levels rising
- Extreme weather conditions
- Ice melting
- Methane bubbles under ice
- Methane 21x more powerful than CO2
- Habitats being destroyed
- Animals at risk of extinction
- Without greenhouse gases we would freeze
- Renewable energy
- Way out from climate change
- Solar, wind, hydro etc.
- Energy that has an infinite amount
- Cleaner, safer to use
- Fossil Fuels
