Climate change has a range of negative impacts on the environment, including rising sea levels, increased frequency and severity of natural disasters, and more extreme weather events. These impacts can have severe consequences for human health, food security, and the economy.
Overall, going carbon neutral is important for the health of our planet and for the well-being of future generations. It is essential that we all take action to reduce our carbon footprint and move towards a more sustainable future.
