More About global warming

Long ago, the Earth was cool. But then, people made things that made the air bad. This made the Earth warm up. Now, it is warmer than it used to be.

We feel the heat in our days. Some days are too hot. The rain can come too much or not at all. This can change how we live.

If we do not help, the Earth can get too hot. We can plant trees and use less gas. Every small thing helps!
