77、environmental problemglobal warmingThere are many big environmental problems facing us on the earth today, but I think the most serious one is global warming. Global warming means an average increase in the earths temperature. It is caused by gases from cars, waste gases from factories, destruction

Also, we should call for people to take action and encourage people to use bicycles instead of cars and clean poisonous gases before they come out of factories
