Global Dimming

Fossil fuel use, as well as producing greenhouse gases, creates other by-products. These by-products are also pollutants, such as sulphur dioxide, soot, and ash. These pollutants however, also change the properties of clouds. I believe one possible solution to this issue is to start to slow down the burning of fossil fuels. You could also put a limit to how much fossil fuels can be burned. They should also work on something that doesn't use fossil fuels. A barrier to this solution is to not allow as many fossil fuels to be burnt. I agree that these pollutants our ruining the environment.

  1. I think that within a few years fossil fuels will become almost extinct. One, we have electricity and two some cars don't even use gas now!

  2. I believe that fossil fuels are on their way out. Electricity will take over for the power of cars and probably many other things.

  3. Pollution just ruins everything, human beings should realize how much pain mother nature is put through, it's like she is giving birth every single day multiple times.
