What is the government doing to
stop global warming?
The government is doing many things
to help stop global warming. The government made a law called The Clean Air Act
so there is less air pollution. Global
warming is making people get very bad illnesses that could make them disabled,
very sick, and sometimes even die. The
Clean Air Act is making many companies change their products to decrease these
problems. Part of the law says that
you may not put a certain amount of pollutants in the air.
Hairspray and some other products, like foam cups, had this problem.
Making and using these products let out too much volatile organic
compounds (VOC’s), ozone-destroying chemicals (chlorofluorocarbons (CFC’s),
and related chemicals (such as CO2) into the air.
Now, almost all of these products have a label on them telling people
what this product can do to the environment and many people.
