Climate change

And why it matters


What is climate change
Climate change is like adding too many blankets to our
planet. We do this by using things like cars and
factories that make the Earth warmer. This is causing
problems like melting ice and rising sea levels. To fix
it, we need to use less of the things that make our
planet too warm, just like taking off extra blankets
when you're hot in bed.
