Human activities are mainly responsible for this warming.

The first reason is that the

burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
This means that it allows less heat to escape into space , as a result, the temperature of
the earth's atmosphere increases significantly. The second reason is deforestation. To be
specific, plants absorb carbon dioxide and hence regulate the temperature. Furthermore,
humans clear vegetation for farming and urban development, resulting in CO2 trapping.
The cutting down of trees on a large scale, therefore, contributes to global warming.
Some measures could be taken to tackle global warming. Firstly, the utilization of eco-
friendly energy such as wind and water power ought to be encouraged to reduce
greenhouse gas emissions. Secondly, it is advisable to introduce stricter environmental
laws including deforestation prohibition and discouragement of the use of fossil fuels.
Lastly, environmental education is also necessary in the national curriculum, which
means that it raises awareness of the causes and effects of global warming.
