Hey friends! Did you know that last year, over four billion people around the world felt an extra 30 days of super hot weather? 😲 That’s like adding an extra month of summer!
This happened because of climate change. That’s when the Earth’s temperature gets warmer due to things humans do, like burning coal, oil, and gas for energy. These actions release gases that trap heat in our atmosphere, kind of like wrapping the Earth in a big, warm blanket! 🌍🔥
Extreme heat can make it hard for people to play outside, stay healthy, and even get a good night’s sleep. It can also affect animals and plants, making it tough for them to survive. 🐾🌿
Because so many people are affected, climate change isn’t just about science anymore—it’s also a human rights issue. That means everyone deserves to live in a safe and healthy environment. ❤️
But here’s the good news: We can all help! Simple things like recycling, saving electricity, and planting trees can make a big difference. So let’s work together to protect our amazing planet! 🌳✨
