Climate change is an issue that impacts everyone. A simple change that people can make is being more aware of their energy and waste production. Turning on the lights or using any electrical source adds excess carbon emissions to the environment, as reported by Science Daily. Other ways to help prevent climate change and help the environment includes conserving water and using less plastic. Some alternatives to plastic straws include reusable glass straws or straws made from more natural materials such as bamboo.
