- A wind turbine: turning wind into electricity without burning fossil fuel.
- A solar panel: turning sunlight into electricity without burning fossil fuel.
- A forest: trees and soil that store carbon and reduce greenhouse gases in the air.
- An ocean: water that absorbs and stores carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Examples
- Riding a bike or taking a bus instead of driving a petrol car lowers fossil fuel use.
- Planting and protecting trees in a neighborhood park helps store carbon.
Key takeaways
- Burning fewer fossil fuels reduces the greenhouse gases added to the air.
- Forests and oceans remove and store carbon dioxide, slowing the warming of the planet.
