Statues made of limestone can erode.
Concrete in houses can erode.
Trees’ leaves becomes damaged and they are unable to photosynthesise
Lakes become too acidic, aquatic animals die.
Climate change causes the temperature of air to increase. This leads to the melting of the Polar (a) .
Which of these are greenhouse gases?
Carbon monoxide
Sulfur dioxide

(a) dissolved in rainwater can cause acid rain
List down three ways of producing energy without producing sulfur dioxide
What are the sources of methane
Burning of fossil fuels
Farming activities
Decaying rubbish sites
Factories
How does the increase of greenhouse gases concentration lead to climate change?
They will reflect more infrared radiation back to the earth, making the atmosphere warmer.
They will absorb the radiation from the Sun and the heat energy is radiated from the particles of green house gases.
The earth’s atmophere will be filled with greenhouse gases and the radiation from the sun has no space to be reflected and escaped from the earth.
