- The greenhouse effect is a natural process that keeps the Earth warm, but human activities are making it stronger and causing harm.
Types of Waste
- Non-biodegradable waste is waste that cannot be broken down by nature, such as plastic and glass.
- Two examples of non-biodegradable waste are plastic bags and glass bottles.
Global Warming
- Global warming is the gradual increase in the overall temperature of the Earth's atmosphere, primarily caused by human activities.
- It is a major environmental issue that affects the entire planet.
