Greenhouse gas emissions threaten the planet, costing society dearly, as atmosphere struggles to handle our pollution.
Greenhouse gas emissions are like pollutants that are released into the air for free, causing global warming. Scientists have found that the rate at which we produce these emissions is much faster than the planet can handle. The more greenhouse gases we emit, the more the Earth's temperature rises, leading to harmful consequences. Until recently, those producing these emissions haven't had to pay for the damage they cause to the environment and people's health. This lack of accountability has allowed greenhouse gas levels to keep increasing. The research shows that these emissions are a major factor in global warming, which brings about various negative effects that could harm the planet and its inhabitants.
