In past years the United States has emitted over 15,000,000,000,000 pounds of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, affecting the ecosystem and the lives of animals and plants. (https://www.epa.gov Limiting our fossil fuel emissions is key to having a world without climate change.

Without them even more species could get extinct making it worse.
Animals aren’t the only ones who are feeling the impacts of climate change though. Because of the increase of temperature, natural disasters are becoming more deadly.
