Employing a series of rules and laws to govern the problem. For example, clear cutting of forests being banned or make wood farms more affordable. This will save trees that we use to breath and animals use for food and habitats. The problem is that with banning cleaning cutting is we need to find an affordable material to build with. The problem with tree farms is the income of wood is slow. Finding another material than wood or making other materials more affordable. This will save forest. The problem with this is that we will most likely have to mine this material, which creates a new problem.

Each year Australians produce up to $10 billion worth of food waste. 1 in 5 of the things we buy at supermarkets we throw out. Some groups are working to reduce those figures by rescuing good food and delivering it to vulnerable people. Oz harvest is one of those companies that isn't a very large group and only contains volunteers. In order for

·       Climate change

·       Without tree forests can become barren deserts quickly

·       Tree help the water cycle by returning water vapor to the atmosphere

·       Can cause extreme temperature swings which can be harmful to plants and animals

·       Fewer tree’s mean more greenhouse gas’s- leads to increased speed of global warming

To reduce air pollution, we will need to shut down fossil fuel factories and replace them with renewable energy. To fully replace all coal production in the US it would take 755 gigawatts, compared to only the 22.7 gigawatts currently in the US

Eat less meat!
The dead corpses of animals release all of their carbon in their body into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide. Killing less animals will reduce our carbon footprint.

How to fix?

If the world population stops/reduces their meat intake and use alternative ways (Soy bean meat)  the farmers would decrease as a result of an economical decline. This would reduce the amount of animals being killed and therefor reduce the worlds carbon footprint.

Cleaner and more efficient

By reducing our carbon emitters, such as cars an factories, we can reduce our carbon footprint and make the world more sustainable.

How do we reduce our carbon footprint?
- Find more environmental alternatives to driving. i.e. Walk places, ride your bike, catch public transport, drive an electric vehicle
- Use small energy efficient home appliances such as fridges, washing machines, etc.
- Turn off lights when you leave rooms, use solar powered lights or consider installing skylights
- Eat locally produced fresh produce. This will reduce the carbon emissions created by the vehicles that may be used to transport food
- Reuse and recycle materials to decrease carbon emissions associated with the overproduction of goods
- Switch to online. Instead of printing emails and assignments and reading a paper copy of the news, do it online to reduce paper production
