The problem of global warming is probably the most important problem nowadays. Enormous amount of carbon dioxide is being released into the atmosphere by cars, factories, big corporations. Because of greenhouse gases in the planet’s atmosphere cause the heat radiate from the planet’s surface, which causes increasing the temperature of our planet. Greenhouse gases are mostly consisting of carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, and of course water vapor. Greenhouse effect causes melting icebergs, which causes the rising of ocean level. Also, nowadays more often the temperature records are observed and the global warming is the main reason of this.

These days people are becoming more conscious in ecological situation and are trying to improve it. For example, more and more people are replacing their vehicles with gasoline or diesel engines with far more eco-friendly electric cars. People are using the electricity from solar panels instead of electricity from thermal power plans, where the electricity is produced by burning gigantic amount of coal, smoke from which is going to the atmosphere. Also, a lot of countries are abandoning the production of electricity in nuclear and thermal power plants in favor of solar, wind and hydroelectric power plants.

I think that people do a lot of things to prevent the increasing of global warming. However, I think that this in not enough. People have got to use far more electricity from solar, wind and hydroelectric power plants. Also, countries should raise the prices for gasoline and diesel fuel to make driving the electric cars way cheaper and more affordable. I think that if all people will care about the ecology of our planet, then we will be able to save our Earth.
