Climate change
Causes
Human activity contributes to global warming more than any other living thing, two good examples of this are deforestation and co2 emissions. Deforestation is the purposeful removal of trees from the Earth this causes less co2 to be removed from our atmosphere and less oxygen to be produced, e.g. a football pitch of trees cut down every minute in the amazon rainforest. Humans create hundreds of megatons of carbon dioxide each year from multiple different things, but the main reason is burning fossil fuels e.g. petrol-powered vehicles, which create co2.
