What is Global warming? This vast topic has many definitions for different reasons. Global warming could happen due to the pure existence of human life. The day to day things that we do could result in global warming. Driving our motor vehicles‚ burning of fuel and trees could trigger the warming mechanism. There are different aspects to this. I chose this topic since it has an in-depth argument point and it can be very well detailed in to several different parts. For my research I will be discussing

Global warming is result of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These gases trap radiation from sun and hold them from being released back into space. This causes rise in temperature at few places on earth. It is not much noticeable in western part of earth but in eastern parts like North Pole‚ Alaska and others slight increase in temperatures makes a huge difference. Scientists believe that if current situation continues many kinds of changes will take place which can be either beneficial or harmful

WAYS TO REDUCE THE EFFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING Global Warming refers to the gradual increase in the Earth’s temperature as a result of the growing concentration of human induced green house gases which are carbon dioxide‚ chlorofluorocarbons and hydro fluorocarbon in our atmosphere. Global warming can be caused by the use of fossil fuels‚ and industrial or agricultural processes. Man-made emissions are adding to the amount of carbon dioxide already being naturally released.
