Global Warming: Causes‚ Effects‚ and Solutions. Global Warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth ’s atmosphere and oceans since the late 19th century and its projected continuation. Many people do not see this as a problem. However‚ it is currently a huge issue that is often talked about among scientists and many other people. Global Warming is caused by many different things. Greenhouse gases‚ deforestation‚ and solar activity are three different proven facts that cause global warming

Global Warming: Who’s to Blame? It seems that a single week does not go by without hearing something about global warming. It has been all over the news for as long as I can remember. Because of this media bombardment‚ I would be surprised to find a single person in America that does not know about global warming. I’ll also go so far as to assume that the vast majority of the people you ask will tell you that not only is global warming occurring‚ but humans are to blame. In fact

Global Warming “The Earth ’s climate has changed throughout history. Just in the last 650‚000 years there have been seven cycles of glacial advance and retreat‚ with the abrupt end of the last ice age about 7‚000 years ago marking the beginning of the modern climate era — and of human civilization. Most of these climate changes are attributed to very small variations in Earth’s orbit that change the amount of solar energy our planet receives.” (NASA.GOV) Going through the history in our planet’s

As destruction of the rainforest continues‚ the effects on plants are immense through the loss of genetic diversity and the disappearance of species. Plant species extinction is reaching critical levels. With this extinction comes a cascade of effects on the ecosystems in which plants play a vital role. New medicinal studies and development will be hindered as plant diversity diminishes. Loss of

GLOBAL WARMING AND GREEN HOUSE EFFECT – HOW CAN WE STOP THEM ? The greenhouse effect occurs when certain gases in the atmosphere trap infrared radiation whereas Global warming refers to an increase in the average temperature of the Earth as a result of the greenhouse effect. Burning fossil fuels raises the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere‚ and it is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect and global warming. We can help to reduce the demand for fossil fuels‚ which in turn reduces

The Effect of Global Warming on Thermohaline Circulation Kabir Rao1 [1] Industrial activities‚ such as fossil fuel burning and other human activities such as tropical deforestation have increased greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. Increasing global temperatures are likely to have extreme effects on global climate and may result in species extinction‚ changes in agricultural production and deleterious effects on health. Studies have been conducted in recent years on the effects of

Global warming is the greatest challenge facing our planet. It is‚ in fact‚ the increase in the temperature of the earth’s neon- surface air. It is one of the most current and widely discussed factors. It has far-reaching impact on biodiversity and climatic conditions of the planet. Several current trends clearly demonstrate that global warming is directly impacting on rising sea levels‚ the melting of ice caps and significant worldwide climate changes. In short‚ global warming represents a fundamental

We’re all aware of the seriousness of this problem: CO2 emissions and other substances such as Nitrogen oxide‚ Hydrocarbons or Carbon Monoxide‚ are destroying our ozone layer and causing global warming to arise. In consequence‚ the greenhouse effect makes the world’s temperature to reach higher levels and lead to enormous disasters such as North Pole melting‚ Pollution...
