Possible solutions in the UAE

There are many things we can do in the UAE to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions like we have to buy fresh food instead of frozen food because frozen food uses 10 times more energy to produce. We have to use compact fluorescent light bulb instead of regular bulb because it produces 60% less energy than the regular ones so we can save about 300 pounds of carbon dioxide per year. Turn off electronic devices when you’re not using them this will save thousands of pounds of carbon dioxide per year. Reduce the using of cars or the number of miles you drive by walking for example if we reduce 10 miles of driving per week, it will eliminate 500 carbon dioxide emissions per year. So, there a lot of things we can do in the UAE.
