Fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, etc.)are burned to meet the energy needs which emit dangerous gases like carbon dioxide. There are alternate（可替换的） environment friendly resources which wait for proper implementation. Another factor contributing in the green house effect is the excessive （过多的）use of electricity. All of our action involving electricity like switching on lights, turning on television, washing, using microwave oven（微波炉）, switching on hair dryer, driving car, using air conditioner, playing video games, etc. are responsible for increasing the green house gases in the atmosphere. Improper methods to deal with the wastage also affect the earth climate. Heaps of garbage are burned on daily bases which add excessive carbon dioxide and other harmful gases into the atmosphere and thus increase the chances of more heat trapping. Cutting trees unnecessarily also affects the system. Trees are the best consumer of carbon dioxide and with less number of trees the rate of consumption will automatically decrease. With the growing population of human beings, the amount of carbon dioxide which they breathe out increase. With no trees to absorb the increasing carbon dioxide, it will be one day impossible for the living beings to breathe on this earth. 1.significant causes 重要的原因 2.fossil fuels矿物燃料 3.meet the energy needs满足能源的需求 4.environment friendly resources 环境友好型资源 5.contribute 有助于, 捐献 contribute to有助于; 帮助 6.involve包含, 牵涉, 使卷入 7.switch on开启 8.be responsible ?对 ... 负责 9.improper不合适的 10.wastage消耗
