This topic explains the strategies that can be used to reduce environmental problems — especially climate change and acid rain.
Main Idea
How to address environmental issues? Several strategies can be implemented.
The book groups them into two main areas:
- Strategies to address climate change (Section 11.7.1)
- Strategies to solve acid rain (Section 11.7.2)
Simple explanation: We can reduce environmental problems by changing how we produce and use energy, and by controlling pollution.
Core Concept
