    Environmental Problems

    Uploaded by

    Claudia Rey
    Global environmental problems have various causes and effects, but also solutions. Project 2 discusses global warming caused by carbon dioxide emissions and deforestation, with effects like sea level rise, extreme weather, and species extinction. It also addresses ozone depletion from consuming substances, acid rain from fossil fuel combustion, and the greenhouse effect from gases produced when burning fuels. All have harmful impacts but solutions like renewable energy, reducing emissions, and public transportation can help address these issues.
