Our planet's climate has been undergoing significant changes over the past few decades, mainly due to the emission of gases. These gases boost the greenhouse effect and create significant seasonal changes which accelerate the melting of ice caps and raise the sea level.
CO2 is a greenhouse gas that exists naturally in the atmosphere. Nevertheless, massive CO2 emissions created by mankind since the beginning of the industrial era have boosted its effect to the point of endangering environmental health.
It is now considered to be the causing factor of 78% of the impact on the climate. CO2 emissions have an impact throughout the world, independently of where they are produced and what's more, the majority of daily activities create them.
In the long term, the planet's response to the effects that are changing its complex climate system is expected to worsen. So it is vitally important to be aware of the climate effect that every one of your small daily actions can have.
