- Extinctions
- Temperature that surpasses the
physiological tolerance of the species
will be one of the main causes of
extinction in the future

- How can we help defeat it?

- What is causing it?
- Deforestation
- Forests absorb carbon dioxide and
release oxygen into the air but when we
cut down trees the process is reversed

- Increase In Population
- More people means the need
for more resources, which
means speeding up the increase
in greenhouse gas
emissions

emissions
- Greenhouse gases are increasing
- When there are more greenhouse
gases in the air, the air holds more
heat, which causes climate change
