Greenhouses gases and its effects.

[00:00:00]It's rainy season and everywhere is still hot, abi?

[00:00:02]If you ask now, they will say climate change. They will say greenhouse gases.

[00:00:05]But, what are greenhouse gases and why are they trying to kill us? I mean, at first, they were not trying to kill us.

[00:00:10]Greenhouse gases, we are talking about carbon dioxide, your methane, and nitrous oxide, and even water vapor.

[00:00:15]They act as this thermal blanket for the planet. When sunlight enters into our atmosphere, it brings its heat with it, right? But, these greenhouse gases, they kind of trap the heat and stop this heat from escaping to keep Earth a habitable place. This is called the greenhouse effect. But now, human activities are sticking blankets, causing global temperatures to rise. You can testify to it.

[00:00:36]And as you could have guessed, the major contributing industry is the energy sector. It contributes around 73%. This includes burning of fossil fuels for heat and electricity, and even transportation. Another large contributing sector is the agriculture and land use sector. It contributes around roughly 18%. This involves methane from livestock, nitrous oxide from the use of fertilizers, and the release of stored carbon through deforestation. The others are the industry sector that contributes around 5 to 12% and also the waste sector that contributes around 3%. A much needed transition towards renewable energy and sustainable farming is one way scientists believe you can help reduce the thickness of this blanket. And in any capacity you find yourself, try as much as possible to reduce how much you contribute to the generation of greenhouse gases. Like, don't cut down trees when you don't need to cut them down. Stop burning bushes. Turn off your generators when you don't need it. You don't have to drive everywhere if you don't need to. Make it louder.

[00:01:26]>> Let us all just join hands together and try and reduce this heat, hey? This heat too much. It's too hot.
