This article states that global warming was caused by the excessive use of fossil fuels, cutting down trees in the forest, and farming livestock. As a consequence of continuing to excessively use these causes, large amounts of greenhouse gases surrounded our atmosphere. Due to this, our global average temperature has increased to 1.1°C from 2011-2020. Also, human-induced global warming is currently increasing at a rate of .2°C per decade. The number may be small, however, it negatively impacts our environment, our health, and our well-being. We may be to blame, however, the greenhouse effect is also a main cause of global warming. This is because some of the gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap the Sun's heat instead of letting it leak back into space, causing global warming. These greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and fluorinated gases.

CO2 emissions have to reach net zero worldwide. Reducing emissions of other greenhouse gases, mostly methane, can have a powerful effect on negating global warming.

In order to stop global warming from increasing, we need to start cracking down on the main cause of global warming, fossil fuels.

This bill provides that people should reduce greenhouse gas emissions by lowering fossil fuel use. Citizens should find options that use less electricity (lights, air conditioners, heaters, etc.) and turn off electrical equipment when they are not using them. They could also purchase CO2 sensors to see if they are overusing greenhouse gases in their homes. As for businesses, they should increase energy efficiency and buy renewable energy to prevent air pollution. More importantly, businesses like factories and fast food restaurants should take an emissions test once a month to keep themselves updated on how much greenhouse gas they are emitting.
