Our world is threatened by serious global climate changes and socioeconomic concerns.Most climate scientists agree that the major cause of the current global warming is the heatentrapped by the atmosphere, which is radiating from the earth into space; a phenomenon calledthe greenhouse effect (D. Lee & Brenner, 2015). Researchers have warned that carbon dioxideand other greenhouse gas emissions (water vapor, methane, and nitrous oxide) are at their highestlevel worldwide ever (Burney, Kennel, & Victor, 2013). The burning of fossil fuels such as coaland oil throughout the past century has increased the atmospheric concentration of carbondioxide. The amount of these gases released into the atmosphere in 2010 was 31% higher thanthe 1990. The increase in global temperatures as a result of climate change has far-reachingconsequences for human beings and the earth's ecosystems
