      There isn’t one way to stop it – everyone in the world needs to stop polluting and using energy from fossil fuels but it’s really hard to do!

      I think there isn’t a magic answer but there are small things that we can all do. Things like recycling, avoiding using plastics etc when we don’t need to and walking instead of taking the car (if you can). Lots of scientists are looking into this too, trying to find ways of stopping climate change. This is very hard though but they are making progress 🙂

      There is no one answer that can stop it but we can all do a little bit to help. Polution is a big problem. It we all walked a little more instead of going in the car it would be good for the environment and for our health!

      There is not one single thing, but there are lots of little things we can do to help. Really, though, governments of countries need to make more of an effort to bring about big changes that will help to at least slow it down.

      Also, our planet goes through periods of ice age on a regular basis (but spaced very far apart), which is very interesting! 🙂

      I was about to say very much the same things as the others have said – climate change may still happen without people, but much more slowly, so animals and plants could adapt. People are making the process happen much more quickly and nature just can’t keep up. The more effort people and businesses make to help the environment, the less problems climate change will create for people and for other animals.
