  1. 2. They helps remove carbon dioxide and produce a lot of Oxygen yearly
  2. 3. A gas that comes from water that evaporates into the atmosphere
  3. 5. It is one of the best natural reflectors of sunlight, reflecting around 85%
  4. 6. When there is a lack of water in a certain area, causing plants and animals to be affected
  5. 8. The planting of trees in an area that was not previously forested

  8. 12. An icy expanse of soil that contains carbon-rich nutrients and animal remains, is sustained in a permanently frozen state.
  9. 13. It speeds up the ice melting in the Arctic, so there are fewer good reflective surfaces
  10. 14. A powerful heat-trapping gas in the atmosphere.
