How cars with internal combustion engines are contributing to climate change

 If decades ago, people were proud of the 4.0 revolution in the manufacture of internal combustion engines; but today climate change & global warming are related to these very machines.

Staying in big cities, where increased traffic density is the main cause of vehicle emissions becomes more apparent. Today there are billions of types of internal combustion engines in operation worldwide. Especially in developing countries, these engines are often not tested for emissions standards. Every day, the whole world is emitting millions of tons of carbon dioxide emissions.

How does carbon dioxide impact climate change & global warming?

Carbon dioxide is the main cause of the greenhouse effect. Unlike oxygen or nitrogen (which make up much of our atmosphere), greenhouse gases absorb heat radiated from the Earth's surface and release it in all directions—including back to the Earth's surface. land. Without carbon dioxide, Earth's natural greenhouse effect would be too weak to keep average global surface temperatures above freezing. By adding more carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, humans are increasing the natural greenhouse effect, causing global temperatures to rise.

Internal combustion engines work by igniting a mixture of gasoline or diesel fuel, which then emits carbon. Over the decades, these gases cause the greenhouse effect and warm the earth's climate

How much gas do cars emit a year?

A typical passenger vehicle emits about 4.6 metric tons of CO2 per year. This assumes the average gasoline vehicle on the road today has a fuel economy of about 22.2 miles per gallon and drives around 11,500 miles per year. Every gallon of gasoline burned creates about 8,887 grams of CO2

Now when you enter any city with heavy traffic. You can feel the heat from the cities & from the internal combustion engines that are evolving day and night. Many cities have recorded bad and bad air pollution levels. In addition, summer in many parts of the earth has reached a threshold beyond human endurance. There will be areas of desertification, or mutations caused by heat & heat shock.

To slow down climate change, above all, it is necessary to join hands globally to eliminate the use of fossil fuels. Pioneering moves such as the universalization of electric vehicles. Like the EU's move to build mass electric vehicle charging stations aimed at everyone who has to ride electric cars in the near future.

In addition, it is necessary to protect forests and plant new forests to green the earth's surface
