You would probably have heard from the news that climate change is affecting everyone. All of us should be concerned. The news are flooded with bad news of:- rising sea level
- hotter days and nights
- higher food prices due to poor harvest
- change in weather pattern
- spread of infectious diseases
Why is the weather changing? Carbon dioxide. Yes, it is carbon dioxide. Every time we turn on the TV, computer, playstation, light, in fact when you turn on all electrical appliances, we use electricity. And electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels which produces carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is a gas and excess carbon dioxide traps heat from the sun causing climate change.
The more electricity we use, the more carbon dioxide is generated. Love Mother Earth, help reduce CO2 (CO2 is the chemical name for carbon dioxide). T
he Bible teaches us to take care of Earth. "The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it" (Genesis 2:15).
Be careful to turn off the lights when you leave the room.
