Climate Change
Climate change has taken significant changes throughout the years on Earth. These changes have affected the in more than one way. A Simple way to describe Global warming would be to say that it refers to an average increase in the Earth’s temperature and this increase may cause changes in climate. As the Earth warms up it may lead to significant rise in sea levels, chaotic weather patterns, and catastrophic droughts. The issues of climate change around the world are caused by human activities. Hurricanes are a perfect example of direct consequences of global climate change such as hurricane Sandy and hurricane Katrina. These impacts of global warming are not limited to the United States. Also massive earthquake triggered devastating Tsunami, which hit country like Indonesia, India, Thailand, and many other countries in the region. This was due to the increasing temperature of the sea and its ability to maintain the Oceanic crust insulated has already been compromised.
The atmosphere is warming on average, but the effects of climate change are being felt locally and can be very different from place to place. Local and regional climate changes include more severe storms, heat waves, precipitation, and droughts. These changes can produce impacts such as changes in agricultural yields, increased flooding, and landslides. An increase in average temperatures will reduce sea ice, because glaciers to recede increase sea level, lower lake level, and decrease snowpack. All of these changes disrupt ecosystems and cause habitats to change which can result in species extinctions, loss of biodiversity, increased disease, and threatened human cultures.
There are types of gases including those known as greenhouse gases that surround the atmosphere. Green house gases (GHG) absorb and retain heat from the sun. They regulate the Earth’s climate by holding warmth in an atmospheric blanket around the planet’s surface. Scientists call this phenomenon the greenhouse effect according
