Friends of the Earth say that "up to 24,000 people die every year as a result of air
            
 pollution." That is not much of a surprise when there are now around 500 million
            
 cars polluting the planet. The problem is that we can't live without cars, because
            
 they are part of our daily lives. But, from the  figures above, we are going to find it
            
 Cars produce large amounts of carbon dioxide, and this is the main contributor to
            
 global warming. Global warming occurs when the greenhouse gases cause the sun's
            
 harmful rays to become trapped in the earth's biosphere. This causes the earth's
            
 temperature to increase, and by the year 2030, it could be up to one degree higher.
            
 At  first, it does not seem that one degree could do much harm, but it is enough to
            
 start melting the polar ice caps. The melting of the polar ice caps will increase the
            
 sea level, and this will cause low-lying areas to flood. 
            
 What we have to remember is that global warming has been active for years, and
            
 there is no way to stop it because it is not a reversible process. But what we can do
            
 is to slow it down. One way we can do this is to 'reduce the number of vehicles', and
            
 use public transport. task because public. Another way is to use renewable energy
            
 resources, like hydroelectric, solar and wind power. These resources will never run
            
 out & they don't produce harmful gases.
            
 The real truth is that we don't live in a perfect world, and so we can't have it our
            
 own way every time. If the world is really determined to slow down the process of
            
 global warming, then it will have to work together. Everyone will have to consider
            
 the facts and realities of what is possible, and what isn't. 
            
 The one thing we should remember is that our actions will shape the future.
