But what are they? And why do we need to know? Greenhouse gases are chemical compounds that are released from the production of different products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The two gasses that are produced the most are carbon dioxide and methane. These greenhouse gasses are produced from burning fossil fuels during the production of many different products. When greenhouse gases are produced into the atmosphere, they trap heat. Carbon dioxide specifically absorbs radiation, instead of it being released from the atmosphere. Let\u2019s explore greenhouse gasses further\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Do Greenhouse Gasses Affect The Environment<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many scientists believe these greenhouse gasses are the main cause of global warming, climate change, and the increased rate and intensity of natural disasters. Just this year, we have experienced tornadoes, hurricanes, earthquakes in Puerto Rico, dam breaches, flooding in Sudan, an unknown explosion in Beirut, monsoon floods, and the worst wildfires in American history sweeping the west coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Researchers and scientists believe that the reasoning behind these events occurring more often and more intensely is due to how much greenhouse gases are being released into the atmosphere. When greenhouse gases are produced, they trap heat. This heat has been associated with dryer or warmer climate changes that have produced many mysterious natural disasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Does the Textile Industry Play into Greenhouse Gasses?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The majority of greenhouse gases come from farming our food, as well as the processing and packaging of agriculture and livestock. However, textiles are also a huge source of greenhouse gas production. The problem with greenhouse gases is that in order to combat carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, we need more oxygen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, millions of trees are cut down each year for various products such as toilet paper, paper towels, notepads, and more. Did you know that approximately 120 million trees are cut down each year to make clothing for the world? As you can imagine, the oxygen in the atmosphere that helps minimize carbon dioxide is slowly but surely decreasing every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"687\" src=\"https:\/\/awarenyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-11.56.23-AM-1024x687.png\" alt=\"Aware is Redefining The Textile Industry\n\" class=\"wp-image-426\" srcset=\"https:\/\/awarenyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-11.56.23-AM-1024x687.png 1024w, https:\/\/awarenyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-11.56.23-AM-300x201.png 300w, https:\/\/awarenyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-11.56.23-AM-768x515.png 768w, https:\/\/awarenyc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Screen-Shot-2022-05-11-at-11.56.23-AM.png 1226w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Aware is Redefining The Textile Industry<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We intend to leave a cleaner, more natural world for generations to come.
