Carbon dioxide is the main vector in causing the warming of our atmosphere. Essentially, the carbon dioxide removed by photosynthesis is replaced by respiration and burning. The slight increase in global temperature could cause a catastrophic change in the climactic regions in the world. The melting of polar ice caps would effect the millions of people on the coasts by a drastic increase in tide levels, flooding the coasts. The article proposes that we must reduce our use of fossil fuels and discover a more efficient way to power the lives we live.
Solar energy needs to be implemented on a grander scale.
We also need more fuel-effcient means of travel, while reducing our pollution levels. I saw the article as a basic overview of the problem that many of us know quite a bit about. We need to know how to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions. We must try to find answers to these questions as we further our studies on the subject. Perhaps its more important to focus on reducing them since they tend to come from more definable sources than CO2, which is widespread.
