This vital component of life is the most common greenhouse gas

CO2

200

As seen in the recent years, this effect of GW changes the weather in this manner

Worse storms

Walking, biking, and public transport are all solutions to this problem

vehicle emissions

400

This protocol from 1987 led to the decline of atmospheric depletion

Montreal Protocol

400

This plant from west Asia from the Buckwheat family easily outcompetes most plants

Japanese Knotwood

400

This describes the major source of greenhouse gases

Fossil Fuels

This effect is caused by the higher temperatures reducing moisture in soil and evaporating water much quicker

Worsened droughts

400

The best way to reduce methane emissions is by changing this aspect of your diet

Throw away less food

500

The explosion of this stratovolcano in 1831 led to smoke blocking out the sun and lowering the global temperature
