      That’s a good question! Global warming is happening due to the increased use of fossil fuels since the 1850’s (industrial revolution) and deforestation. It’s been happening for a while, but we are seeing very serious affects in the last few years. Like the ‘Beast from the East’ last March!
      In order to reduce the impact of global warming, we all have to play a part. It’s down to individuals, businesses and governments to make the best decisions for the globe in the long term and not just the short term.
