The increases in the surface temperature and carbon dioxide have been faster in recent decades. In the 20th century‚ the earth’s average temperature rose about 0.6° Celsius. (Timeforchange.org‚ 2015) The causes of this problem are many‚ the

1. Define "global warming." Global warming is a term used to refer to the phenomenon of the increase in global average temperature of Earth’s atmosphere and the ocean due to the depletion of the ozone layer. Describe briefly the theory behind man-caused global warming. Include a list of some of the gases that are believed to contribute to global warming. The emission of carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ mainly from industries has increased significantly. The atmospheric concentration of this gas and its

Global warming is the observed increase in the average temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere and oceans. Higher temperatures threaten dangerous consequences: drought‚ disease‚ floods‚ and lost ecosystems. From sweltering heat to rising seas‚ global warming’s effects have already begun. Many people still believe that since the earth is so big‚ human beings cannot possibly have any major impact on the way the planet operates. The truth is we have grown so numerous and our technologies have become so

Global warming is causing species to respond to a warmer climate by moving to cooler locations. Most animals live in areas with very specific climate conditions‚ such as temperature that enable them to thrive. Any change in the climate of an area can affect the animals living there‚ as well as the makeup of the entire ecosystem‚ global warming is causing these issues. Many animals are harmed and/or killed by global warming. Water temperature is affecting many animals‚ which is causing population

many of which we are just discovering today. The most important problem started by the industrial revolution is a significant increase in Carbon Dioxide emission‚ which leads to global warming. Globe warming brings about various natural disasters. The most significant disaster is the rising of sea level. Global warming increases the melting of the polar ice caps‚ which brings about a rise in sea level. As sea level rises‚ islands near sea level sink into the sea. Residents on these islands lose

Many people believe that trying to fix global warming is a hopeless task‚ however global warming can be halted and could even be reversed. This is a very daunting challenge because it means that people have to change the way they live and do things. We could all choose to ignore this situation but the future impact on our planet is huge. Global warming not only brings about climate changes but also will reduce the level of breathable air (O2) and reduce the levels of drinkable water on our planet
