    4 ºC to 0.8 ºC. Recent studies show that the average surface temperature of the earth is likely to increase by 1.1°C to 6.4 °C by the end of the 21 century‚ with best estimate of 1.8 - 4.0 °C. The human activities such as land use/land cover changes‚ deforestation‚ draining of wet lands tend to alter the albedo of the earth surface which in turn influence the variations in the microclimatic elements such as rainfall‚ temperature‚ humidities‚ etc. Further‚ the process of urbanization creates

    Even though climate change is partially caused by the natural cycles of Earth‚ humans are still a major part of it. Greenhouse gases‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ absorb and emit heat in the atmosphere‚ keeping Earth warm enough to support life. However‚ human activities‚ such as burning fossil fuels‚ are adding large amounts of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. Earth must get rid of energy at the same rate it receives energy. More greenhouse gases mean that more heat is being held in the atmosphere

    Climate change Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in average weather conditions‚ or in the distribution of weather around the average conditions (i.e.‚ more or fewer extreme weather events). Climate change is caused by factors that include oceanic processes (such as oceanic circulation)‚ variations in solar radiation received by Earth‚ plate tectonics and

    Climate Change Essay I claim that human activities‚ like emitting greenhouse gases‚ are causing global warming. Some scientists have decided that we‚ through the greenhouse effect‚ are causing global warming by burning oil‚ gas‚ and coal. The greenhouse effect helps to keep the Earth hot enough that it can sustain human life. Sunlight come down through the atmosphere‚ and then clouds reflect some of it off and back into space. Most of it is used to warm the planet. When the ground is warmed‚ the

    Is climate change a ‘ticking time bomb’? It is no secret to anyone that our planet is warming but what many of us don’t know is why and perhaps more importantly the consequences it poses. The roots of our problem lie in the form of a simple molecular compound‚ carbon dioxide. In 1870 the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was 290 parts per million. 144 years later‚ to this very date‚ it has risen to over 400 parts per million. But why does this cause a problem you may ask‚ well it is

    The Science and Impacts of Climate Change on the Maldives Science of global warming and climate change Anthropogenicly produced greenhouse gases has exacerbated global warming. The burning of fossil fuels and deforestation have resulted in almost doubling the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. The concentration of CO2 has increased at a rate of 2.0 ppm/yr.‚ which is much faster than in pre-industrial times (1). This greenhouse gas absorbs long wave radiation heat emanated away from the earth which
