Global Warming is a major problem which our environment faces today terribly. This global warming is caused due to Greenhouse Effect. What is greenhouse effect? It is a condition in which Earth’s heat trapping increases more from the normal levels. There are many causes of Global Warming. The destruction and burning down of tropical forests ‚ traffic clogging up the city streets ‚ rapid growth of unplanned industries etc cause GLOBAL WARMING. The effects of Global Warming is very dangerous for

Global Warming Global warming is one of the most serious challenges facing us today. To protect the health and economic well-being of current and future generations‚ we must reduce our emissions of heat-trapping gases by using the technology‚ know-how‚ and practical solutions already at our disposal. Tropical deforestation is the largest source of emissions for many developing countries‚ but slowing deforestation can’t solve the climate problem by itself. As forest-rich developing countries

What is global warming‚ and how is it affecting the Earth and its inhabitants? Global Warming is sometimes referred to as the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is the absorption of energy radiated from the Earth ’s surface by carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere‚ causing the atmosphere to become warmer. The greenhouse effect is what is causing the temperature on the Earth to rise‚ and creating many problems that will begin to occur in the coming decades. For the last 10‚000 years

what do you think? Through my research on global warming it is apparent that global warming is not a problem at all. In fact everybody needs to consolidate the fact that global warming is helping mankind in many different ways. The environment warming up‚ the ocean levels rising‚ and the increase in carbon dioxide are all benefits to the environment‚ economy‚ and mankind in general. As the world warms up people will not have to heat their house. This is beneficial in many aspects. Not only will

Global warming refers to the rising average temperature of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans‚ which started to increase in the late 19th century and is projected to keep going up. Since the early 20th century‚ Earth’s average surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C (1.4 °F)‚ with about two thirds of the increase occurring since 1980.[2] Warming of the climate system is unequivocal‚ and scientists are more than 90% certain that most of it is caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse

similar to a greenhouse. Nitrous oxide is known to have a significant global climatologic impact as a naturally occurring greenhouse gas. After carbon dioxide and methane‚ nitrous oxide is the third most climatologically significant greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases act like a warming blanket in the troposphere and prevent radiative cooling. Nitrous oxide is a particularly potent greenhouse gas with 300 times the global warming potential of carbon dioxide over 100 yr‚ according to the Intergovernmental

Climate change in the context of this paper refers to the changes that result from human activities‚ especially as these changes relate to the issue of global warming. If global warming is indeed happening‚ it is the greenhouse gas effect that is believed to be the most responsible. Today at the starting days of the 21st century‚ technology is the most pronouncing name all over the world. And this success of

1) What is global warming? (History) Definition: Global warming is the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of Earth’s climate system. Common sense:Glaciers are melting‚ sea levels are rising‚ cloud forests are drying‚ and wildlife is scrambling to keep pace. It’s becoming clear that humans have caused most of the past century’s warming by releasing heat-trapping gases as we power our modern lives. Called greenhouse gases‚ their levels are higher now than

Many people wonder if global warming is happening at all and if it is happening‚ can it really hurt us. Many scientist claim that the human race is to blame for global warming‚ while others claim that the human race
