Here are some ways you can cut air pollution. Turn off the lights when you leave the room. Electricity comes from power plants that burn coal or oil. The more electricity you use, the more coal or oil is burned. Be kind to trees.
Trees are like factories that make air.

According to one organization, unless greenhouse gases are cut, the Earth's mean temperature may rise by 2 to 6 degrees Fahrenheit in the next century. That could lead to a rise in sea levels, droughts, disease, and famine.
