Climate Change Means Think Green:

Many scientists believe that our climate is changing because of the CO₂ that is released as a result of human activities, including the use of fossil fuels. Renewable energy is sometimes called “green power” because it does not create as much CO₂ as energy made from fossil fuels, and is therefore better for the environment.
