coal, oil and natural gas for heating and cooling
emit significant quantities of greenhouse gas emissions
consuming over half of all electricity
most cars, lorries, ships and planes run on fossil fuels
major contributor of greenhouse gases, especially carbon-dioxide emissions
that Brazil alone lost 1.45 hectares of land
forests absorb carbon dioxide
limits nature’s ability to keep emissions out of the atmosphere
