Who Is Involved Detrimentally

       When people hear the words climate change, they immediately think of the places that have been seriously affected by it, such as Washington. The one thing they don't think of though is who is making it worse and why are they making it worse. What some people don't realize is that Canada is actually one of the places making worse, Along with the USA and China. What is making it worse is the amount of greenhouse gases these countries are putting into the air. As of 2012, those three countries are in the top ten for most greenhouse gases produced and that is what is making climate change worse. Not to mentions all of the people in Washington who are suffering because of this.  

       

Firstly, Canada is ranked eighty out of all the countries in the world from most greenhouse gas emissions produced. They released over 560,000 tons of carbon dioxide in 2012.  What this shows it that Canadians use way more energy than they need, and when this happens it  forces us to make more energy and produce more greenhouse gases or carbon dioxide. Also, this shows that we have yet to find a good clean alternative source of energy. Nothing has happened to stop this since 2012, so it would not surprise me if we stayed at the same rank or even moved up.

      

Secondly, USA is ranked second when it comes to most greenhouse gases produced. In 2012 USA released a little over five million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. There is no wonder why climate change just keeps steadily getting worse and worse. USA’s population is so big you can understand why carbon dioxide production is might be bigger than other countries, but there is no reason it has to be this big.

        Lastly, China, it is good to be at the top of the charts when you are talking about music but not so much when you are talking about the production of greenhouse gases. China has produced just under ten million tons of carbon dioxide. If we were to compare countries, China produces almost twenty times more carbon dioxide than Canada. That is Crazy! If there is any country in need of a desperate change it is China. They are the biggest contributor to climate change and that has to stop. If they and the rest of the countries that are ranked in the top ten don't do something now, we could start seeing more of the undeservingly countries get hit by climate change.
