Help Solve Climate Change
Restore nature to absorb more carbon
Things like photosynthesis from plants on land and in the ocean show directly into the ocean, making more soil.
Nature-based solutions to climate change, sometimes called involve protecting, keeping, or better managing ecosystems to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
On Earth carbon is stored in rocks and sediments, while the rest is in the ocean, atmosphere, and in living organisms.
The two ways to restore balance to carbon cycles are to move away from relying on fossil fuels. To farm in ways that retain more carbon for longer periods than normal farming methods do.
Invest in renewable energy
Renewable energy is crucial for plans to reduce the worst effects of climate change. Changing fossil fuels with wind and solar to power will cut our greenhouse gas emissions.
Renewable energy slows down carbon pollution and has a lover impact on the environment.
Increase renewable energy and improve access to renewable energy, in developing countries which are needed to replace fossil fuel-based capacity.
Protect the oceans
Currently, about 7% of the ocean is protected and CO2 emissions.
The ocean covers around 70% of the Earth’s surface. As the earth warms the water in the ocean soaks up energy and distributes it more evenly across the planet. Heat and carbon dioxide in the ocean can change the environment.
The Amazon River carries rainwater that lands, covering 2.1 million square miles, into the ocean. It carries vital nutrients like phosphorus, nitrogen and silicon. They feed algae bloom where the Amazon, ocean.
Countries as Canada and the United States, have said they aim to protect 30 percent of their land and water by 2030.
Protect forests like the Amazon
Without tropical rainforests, the greenhouse effect would be more noticable, and climate change get worse later
The lands and forests of the Earth in taking up carbon has been a huge factor in preventing faster rates of climate change
Keep fossil fuels in the ground
The fossil fuel reserves must be kept in the ground to have a 50% chance of keeping global temperatures from rising 1.5 degrees Celsius above levels.
Since 1970 CO2 emissions have increased by 90%. This is from fossil fuel combustion contributing about 78% of the total greenhouse gas emissions increase.
Countries need to move away from fossil fuels as soon as possible. Invest in renewable energy. Changing our main energy sources to clean and renewable energy is the best.
