1. What are the main causes of global warming and how can they be mitigated?

Causes of Climate Change. Generating electricity and heat by burning fossil

fuels causes a large chunk of global emissions. Most electricity is still
generated by burning coal, oil, or gas, which produces carbon dioxide and
nitrous oxide – powerful greenhouse gases that blanket the Earth and trap
the sun's heat.

2. It is estimated that up to 13 million metric tons of plastic ends up in the

ocean each year—the equivalent of a rubbish or garbage truck load's worth
every minute. Fish, seabirds, sea turtles, and marine mammals can become
entangled in or ingest plastic debris, causing suffocation, starvation, and
drowning. Help keep plastic out of the ocean and other waterways by
participating in local trash cleanups. Reduce plastic use. The more we can
prevent plastic from becoming waste in the first place, the less we'll have to
clean up later, so tackling this issue at the source has big benefits.

3. What is the role of the individuals in promoting sustainable living?

Opting for sustainable products, reducing single-use plastics, and supporting

eco-friendly businesses can reduce our ecological footprint. By choosing
energy-efficient appliances and reducing water waste, individuals can also
contribute to conserving vital resources.

4. What policies can governments implement to promote environmental

conservation?

Environmental regulation

A policy that can promote environmental sustainability is to implement and

enforce environmental regulation, or rules and standards that limit or prevent the
negative impacts of human activities on the environment. Environmental
regulation can cover various aspects, such as air and water quality, waste
management, land use, biodiversity conservation, or environmental impact
assessment. Environmental regulation can help protect the environment and human
health, ensure compliance and accountability, and create a level playing field for
businesses and consumers.
