Answer:

- setting aside large areas to plant trees.

- Properly setting up a system for waste disposal

- Controlling pollution.

Step-by-step explanation:

- setting aside large areas to plant trees.

Trees naturally reduce the amount of CO2 and increase the amount of O2 from their photosynthesis process. Both will give benefit for the community in terms of health and slowing down Global warming.

- Properly setting up a system for waste disposal

Waste disposal system need to be separated into something recyclable and non-recyclable. Something recyclable can be used to create other products after cleaned and non-recitable need to be get rid off as soon as it's dumped to the environment. Waste that isn't managed properly can be extremely harmful to the environment.

- Controlling pollution from energy source

This can be done by reducing the tools/equipment's that rely on fossil fuels. In exchanges, Cities could start using a more environmental friendly energies such as solar or wind.
