The Earth's temperature has risen by 8% and global warming is expected to be irreversible by 2024. The podcast discusses the science and impact of global warming, including rising temperatures, sea levels, loss of species, and food insecurity. Human activities like deforestation, power generation, and manufacturing contribute to climate change. Power generation is the biggest contributor, with 75% of greenhouse emissions. The podcast suggests eco-friendly actions like using electric cars, public transport, saving energy at home, and recycling. The effects of climate change can be limited if we act now. If we don't, there will be devastating consequences. We need to make changes in our everyday lives and push for government action to save the planet. As of 2020, the Earth's temperature has risen by 8% and global warming is expected to be irreversible by 2024. Hi, I'm Benji Kaye, a 14-year-old English writer, and this is my podcast, The 5 Cent Epiphany. Today, I am here to talk to you about global warming and climate change. Come join me as we explore the science behind it, its enormous impact on the environment and the actions we should take to stop the devastating effects. From rising temperatures and sea levels to a loss of species and large increase in food insecurity, are you ready to experience the dark, fiercest side of climate change? Deforestation, power generation and manufacturing of goods, what do all these have in common? They are all destroying our wealth, but also all caused by humans using significant amounts of energy. For many of these uses, it is for personal, selfish uses, that are made to benefit us but not our planet. By buying and helping manufacturing companies make more of our selfish needs. Even with that, why is it still so bad for climate change, you may ask? Well it is because of many different causes. For example, deforestation contributes to 10% of all climate change because of the large amount of carbon dioxide released when forests are cleared. When deforestation varying from 3.5 billion trees to 7 billion trees each year, the amount of trees cleared each year is substantial. There has been a major increase in carbon dioxide with more than 8 billion tonnes annually for the past 20 years. You may ask, what may be the number one contributor to climate change? Well for the past decades, power generation has been the number one contributor. With such a high usage of fossil fuels, power generation has become one of the worst things to exist for our planet. With more than 75% of global greenhouse emissions and 90% of all carbon dioxide emissions. The key question most asked today is what can we do to help limit the disastrous effects of global warming and climate change? Even in our everyday lives, we can do some little things to help lessen the effect. I'm here to help you think twice before helping destroying our planet and being a bad contributor. Here are some things you can do in your everyday lives to help stop the huge effects of climate change. For example, you can do such things as thinking eco-friendly, using electric cars, public transport such as bikes, buses, trains. Also saving more energy at home by switching to solar panels and reduce and recycling. By doing these easy tasks, the effects will be substantial with a huge prevention in the loss of millions of lives and the rise in temperature will be flattened over the next few years. Temperature will then plateau but remain well elevated for centuries. In conclusion, if we do not act now, there will be devastating effects, causing our planet to have irreversible change. Already there are enough effects of climate change such as rising sea levels, huge increases in temperature, to a loss of species and a significant amount of food insecurity. If we don't act now, then when will we? When the effects have made us look twice again, or will we act now to save the beautiful planet we live on? In doing simple things at home, such as saving energy, using more public transport such as bikes, buses and trains, and being eco-friendly. From small steps like this to massive steps like protesting and making the government act now. If doing so, we can make a huge change and stop irreversible change, but only if we act now and don't wait towards irreversible change.
