A serious problem of Global Warning

nimals and thus will hamper the balance of the ecosystem. Areas in the Arctic are diminishing away and flowing into major oceans. Rising temperatures create a much accelerated threat to wildlife and whole ecosystems in these regions. With glaciers melting at vast rates, a chain of events is being set into motion that cannot be reversed.

Global warming occurs when carbon
dioxide (CO2) and other air pollutants and greenhouse gases collect in the
atmosphere and absorb sunlight and solar radiation that have bounced off the
earth’s surface. Normally, this radiation would escape into space—but these
pollutants, which can last for years to centuries in the atmosphere, trap the
heat and cause the planet to get hottest. That's
what's known as the greenhouse effect.
Irregular weather patterns have
already started showing results. Increased precipitation in the form of rain
have already been noticed in polar and sub-polar regions. More global warming
will lead to more evaporation which will cause more rains. Animals and plants
cannot easily adapt to increased rainfall. Plants may die and animals may
migrate to other areas, which can cause entire ecosystem out of balance. As the temperature becomes more warm,
it can affect the health of humans and the diseases they are exposed to.
With the increase in the rainfall, water borne diseases are likely to spread
like malaria.
Are you a lover of fall? Maybe
spring is your favorite season. Whatever weather and climate you enjoy, it
could be happening sooner and shorter, or later and longer. Global warming
affects show spring is occurring 10 days sooner than it has in the past. While
it may be nice to go from snow pants to shorts sooner, this could cause
flooding from reservoirs filling too soon, and droughts were there’s not enough
precipitation to provide adequate nourishment for crops.
so how we can stop it ?
Reduce your own carbon footprint by following a few easy steps. Make
conserving energy a part of your daily routine and your decisions as a
consumer. When you shop for new appliances like refrigerators, washers, and
dryers, look for products with the government’s Energy Star label; they meet a
higher standard for energy efficiency than the minimum federal requirements.
When you buy a car, look for one with the highest gas mileage and lowest
emissions. You can also reduce your emissions by taking public transportation
or carpooling when possible.
