In
this
 day and age, habitats of living beings and health of ecosystem on earth are threatened by an international problem known as global warming. The causes of global warming are multi-factorial,
thus
 it needs a systematic approach from government and individuals to tackle the issue.
First
 and foremost, the main factor resulting in the warming of our planet is human emissions of greenhouse gases
such
 as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, and others to Earth’s atmosphere. These gases come from numerous sources, but the most problematic is those coming from the burning of fossil fuels from factories and power plants, which releases thousand tonnes of CO2 into the air every year.
Moreover
, the population explosion has resulted in excessive dependence on the amount of gas for personal vehicles and public transport, which
also
 emit an enormous amount of CO2 into the atmosphere.
In addition
, forests store large number of trees, so deforestation can cause more CO2 to remain in the air.
Nevertheless
, there are some potential methods to solve
this
 problem, or at least reduce the Effects.
Firstly
, government need to reduce our dependence on the using of fossil fuels by replacing it with renewable sources of energy
such
 as solar power, wind power, etc. Imposing the limits on CO2 and others greenhouse gas emission from industries in their country is
also
 required so that others methods can be effective.
Next
, individuals
also
 play an important role in reducing the global warming by changing their lifestyles.
For example
, people can use public transport or bicycles to travel to work as it can improve our health as well as reduce the CO2 emitted into the air.
In particular
, small things
such
 as saving electricity, planting trees in their garden can
also
 help. In conclusion,
although
 global warming is a serious issue which needs to be addressed as a priority, there are steps that the government and individuals can do to reduce
this
 threat in order to save the earth as well as future generation.
