GLOBAL WARMING

Global warming refers to the rise in surface temperature of the earth due to the green house effect created by green house gases. Global warming is a big environmental and social issue all over the world which everyone must know especially our kids and children as they are the future.
Global warming is a major atmospheric issue all over the world. Our earth's surface becoming hot day by day by trapping the sun's heat and rise in the level of atmospheric
carbon dioxide. The bad effects of it increasing day by day and causing major problems to the living of human being. It has become one of the subjects of big social issue which need social awareness to a great level. People should know its meaning, causes, effects and solution to solve it immediately. People should come forth together and try to solve it in order to save life on the earth.
Rise in the carbon dioxide level is the use fossil fuels like coal and oil, deforestation, by the human beings on Earth. Decreasing number of the plants on the earth increases the level of carbon dioxide, as plants are the main source of the using carbon dioxide released by the human beings ( as a by-product of respiration) and other means. Increasing level of Earth's temperature creates lots of problems like sea level becomes hotter and higher, glaciers melt, flood, strong storms, lack of food, diseases, death, etc.

Impact of Global Warming on Animals

Impact of Global Warming on Animals Loss of Habitat As global warming causes climate change, many great deserts like the Sahara, are no longer able to sustain their animal population. Loss of habitat is most vividly seen in the Arctic, where global warming is melting the glaciers, pushing the polar bears into extinction, The melting glaciers have caused water levels to rise in many oceans, threatening to drown many tropical islands and forests, that teem with animal life. Loss of Food Grasslands are also adversely affected by global warming. The effects include high rate of evaporation, higher temperatures, frequent and severe droughts, reduced rainfall, and lower nitrogen content in forage grasses. Lower nitrogen concentration in the vegetation causes improper digestion in animals resulting in reduced strength, performance and health of animals. To make room for an ever-growing population, many forests, grasslands, and even desserts, have been made habitable fo...

CAUSE - CO2 AND CLIMATE CHANGE

CAUSES OF CLIMATE CHANGE CO2 AND CLIMATE CHANGE The most well-known and the most important greenhouse gas is CO2. The concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is subject to variation even without human intervention. The carbon cycle causes an exchange of CO2 between the biosphere and the oceans on the one hand and the atmosphere on the other. Vast amounts of CO2 are also released by the burning of fossil fuels. there is incontrovertible evidence that the CO2 concentration in the air has never been so high in 8,00,000 years(probably even 60 million years) as it is now. The trend suggests that CO2 emissions will continue to rise globally, although the economic crisis did prevent a rise in 2009.  Besides CO2, methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2o), fluorinated gases, ozone (O3) and water vapour are important greenhouse gases. Water vapour plays a unique role as it strengthens the heat-trapping effect caused by other greenhouse gas emissions. This is beca...

causes of global warming

What causes global warming? Global warming occurs when carbon dioxide (CO2) and other air pollutants and greenhouse gases collect in the atmosphere and absorb sunlight and solar radiation that have bounced off the earth’s surface. Normally, this radiation would escape into space—but these pollutants, which can last for years to centuries in the atmosphere, trap the heat and cause the planet to get hotter. That's what's known as the greenhouse effect. the burning of fossil fuels to make electricity is the largest source of heat-trapping pollution, producing about two billion tons of CO2 every year. Coal-burning power plants are by far the biggest polluters. The country’s second-largest source of carbon pollution is the transportation sector, which generates about 1.7 billion tons of CO2 emissions a year. Reducing the amount of electricity generated from coal and gas and increasing the amount of electricity from clean, renewable energy sources like solar and wind, mea...
