Answer:
As a student, I can contribute to our planet by preventing climate change on Earth. Climate change is a risk to nature and our lives. It changes temperature and condition. By mitigating the climate change, we can:
1. Do the w-a-s-t-e management.
-W-a-s-t-e management is an efficient way to reduce waste by doing the 3rs: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle to have a gleaming environment.
2. Increase carbon sequestration and conservation.
-There are several ways of increasing the sequestration and conservation of carbon. Some examples are through carbon s-i-n-k-s and by improving vegetation management or sustainable land management techniques. Other measures include cropland and grazing management and silviculture, promoting increased carbon stocks in biomass or soil carbon enhancement such as alternative tillage practices.
3. Use of bioenergy
-Rather than using fossil fuels or wood to generate energy, renewable resources could be used to produce bioenergy. By reducing emissions, this practice also helps protect endangered woodlands and forests thereby solving another problem, aka land degradation. Agricultural waste products such as straw, plant fiber, and seed shells can be used to fire boilers for both domestic heating and industrial processes.
4. Reduced fertilizer use
-Chemical fertilizers, sometimes called inorganic or synthetic fertilizers, are produced through synthetic means making them nondegradable. They are composed of one or more growth elements such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium which when applied to vegetation, may result in e-utro-p-h-ic-ation, increased acidity, and loss of good bacteria in the soil. To reduce these h-a-r-m-f-u-l effects, proper timing of fertilizer application, utilization of nitrification in-hi-bi-tors, and existing nitrogen from organic matter are advised. To ensure the precise application of fertilizers, farmers can use the global positioning systems software. Another alternative which is considered the most basic of all is switching from synthetic to organic fertilizers made from de-ca-yed or partially decayed materials such as rotten green manure and animal wastes.
5. A-n-a-e-r-o-b-ic digestion of w-a-s-t-e
-Methane is an identified greenhouse gas that is produced through the natural decay of wastewater, crop waste, and animal waste. To reduce its emission, wastes can be collected and stored in anaerobic digesters. As a process, a-n-a-e-r-o-b-ic digestion uses naturally occurring microorganisms to break down organic materials and eventually produce a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide, called biogas. This end product can be combusted to generate renewable electricity, cleaned to pipeline natural gas standards, or further processed into compressed natural gas.
6. Improve energy efficiency
-With limited natural resources that can be offered by the planet, humans have to think of ways to improve energy efficiency while reducing the carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere. Here are some practices that could improve energy use and efficiency:
