Global Pollution : Causes And Consequences Of Global Warming

One of the largest problems fronting the world today is global warming. Many experts believe that our makings of carbon dioxide and extra greenhouse gases have a heating effect on the troposphere, and this can be very hazardous to human life. This research paper will explore the issue of global warming and propose ways to resolve the issue.

Today, one of the major threats that our planet is facing is the climate change. The temperature of the earth is warming day by day. According to many scientific researches, conducted on climate change have resulted that sudden climatic changes are the cause of global warming in the environment. The term ‘Global Warming’ is defined as the gradual increase in the temperature of the earth’s atmosphere due to the greenhouse effects which results in the corresponding changes in the climate. According to IPCC’s research, Earth’s global temperature is increasing by 1.4 degrees F since 1880. As a result of global warming, there has been occurring imbalance in the environment. Through this research paper, I expect to find out how are the climatic changes due to global warming a threat to our planet? It covers all the effects, present and future consequences of global warming, impact of global warming on the climate, etc.

Climate change is an important issue that concerns humanity. Climate change refers to an increase in average global temperatures. Every day, the enhanced greenhouse effect continues to advance, which significantly influences Earth’s long-term climate. In addition, human activity is also contributing to the increase of global warming and is already leading to harmful consequences. Some people believe that global warming is not occurring and the heating of the globe, is just a part of the Earth’s natural cycle. Several consequences such as, ice caps melting, show us that global warming is in fact occurring. Therefore, we should start making changes in order to reduce future damages to the Earth.

Just like every living species in this world we live in, planet Earth also has its own health measures and qualities. Over a period, the temperature of the earth has risen nearly twice the rate it was 50 years ago. Just as a human being getting affected by a high fever, the earth equally has its own impact and outcomes. Earth is naturally surrounded by a phenomenal layer called the "greenhouse gases" which preserves the planet from getting too hot or too cold. When the sun rays hit this layer, most of it is bounced back into the space to keep a natural cycle of gases. But since it has been mistreated in most cases by humans over a long period of time, this layer traps an abundant amount of harmful gases causing numerous damages to earth. We call this the "Global Warming". The best medicine and the cure to this problem can only be formed by humans and the changes we make in the future. Most of us often do not even have sufficient knowledge on this issue and it is typically underestimated. Global warming is not a prediction, it is happening right now and will continue to become an issue over time if we don't understand the causes, the consequences, and a way to address a solution to avert this problem.

The U.S. Government isn’t doing enough to protect the coastal cities that are flood prone when hurricanes hit these areas. They need to be aware of the current damage that hurricanes do to the coastal cities and realize how much worse it will get soon because of global warming. “Under Water” by Kate Sheppard explains how this need in neglected by the U.S. Government.

It has been known that Earth’s atmospheric temperature has risen over the decades, the exact term for this is called “Global Warming”. So, what exactly does this mean? To simply state it, heat is emitted into the atmosphere and then eventually released. Some gases such as carbon dioxide, water vapor and methane capture heat more efficiently than others and are called “greenhouse gasses”, and if the atmosphere contains more of these gases, it retains more heat and becomes warmer, thus causing the rise in atmospheric temperature. “Global levels of greenhouse gases have been steadily increasing. In 1990 they were more than 14 percent higher than in 1960. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), which measures long-lived greenhouse gases and publishes an Annual Greenhouse Gas Index (AGGI), greenhouse gases increased 37 percent from 1990 to 2015, and of that, carbon dioxide accounted for 80 percent of the increase (Keating).” This results in significant changes in climate and weather patterns. The rise in average temperatures is crucial and is already causing changes in the climate, “Documented changes include the net loss of ice due to melting glaciers and slowly rising sea levels as the ocean gets warmer and its waters expand (Keating).” So where exactly do these gases in the atmosphere come from, Scientists have discovered that “One significant factor, the rise in greenhouse gases, has been attributed to the activities of humankind. Burning

Global warming is one of the major problems that the human race face in this modern world. This problem is threatening the humanity and the life of our planet. Even though global warming is an inevitable natural slow process, since the mid 1900’s with the start of the industrialization era, global warming increased its rate. We have to start taking preventions to improve the situation before the global warming many negative effects start becoming more catastrophic. In this paper I am going to explain the causes and the consequences of global warming and how it will impact the life of humanity in a long term perspective.

Pollution is a problem that affects almost every country in the world. It has had dramatic effects across the landscape of society. Pollution influences both developed and developing countries. Mexico is a prime example of a developed country that struggles with air pollution severely. In the early 1970’s Mexico had zero regulations on industrial plants. Consequentially, over 7000 plants were being unregulated. Mexico believed that they would have an increase in their economy. That resulted in uncontrollable pollution in Mexico City and Tijuana. “At one point in 1991, according to Government figures, the country 's environmental agency had seven inspectors assigned to 15,000 industries in Mexico City.” A developing country that has a major problem with pollution is Indonesia.

There is a serious situation is occurring on planet Earth that is causing a significant and harmful effect on communities, health, and the climate. It is Global Warming which can be defined as the constant heating of Earth 's surface, oceans and atmosphere. In order to understand global warming, the most important basic is to figure out how the of greenhouse effect plays an important part in its development. The greenhouse effect is caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) that trap heat in the atmosphere that keeps the Earth warm. The information this text will discuss is the meaning of global warming, the causes, and most importantly how citizens can help to rectify the situation. Humanity must tickle this problem immediately before the consequences increase and affect the entire planet.

The environment plays an integral part of offering and sustaining livelihoods to billions of humans around the globe. Without rain, food security is adversely threatened, meaning that humans’ most vital need could be affected. Recently, the issue of global warming has caught many nations’ attention as carbon emissions significantly cause it. Greenhouse gas emissions around the world have been somehow unavoidable, but countries have sought methods to mitigate the inevitable outcomes. While it often seems as though this task is too daunting to overcome, this paper asserts that with the right approach, carbon emissions could be controlled thus reducing the destructive impacts on the environment, which inevitably lead to dire

Global warming has been for decades the center of discussion between intergovernmental agencies and world leaders, each forum aiming to discuss the causes of the global warming. Scientists have been in the front lie to figure out the causes of the global warming. The hurdles and the efforts to discern the causes of the global warming are to learn ways to counter the causes so as to prevent the earth from vanquishing in the detrimental effects of the global warming. Additionally, the effort to learn about the causes of global warming is to allow the earth to know the effects and consequences of the global warming with the aim of presenting solutions to the problem. Moreover, learning of the causes provides the human race and environmentalists will spread the awareness to more people helping them to reduce their activities that contribute to global warming. With the inquiry, there is the concern that human beings and their activities are indeed the leading contributors to the causes of the global warming. The consequences of global warming have been hugely manifested in the 21st century, with world leading powers emphasizing the importance of controlling the causes of global warming (Global Conference on Global Warming, 2013). Global warming arises from various sources, with greenhouse gas emissions being the leading contributor of the case. Human beings and their activities are crucially pivotal in contributing to global warming. The following paper aims to investigate the

We have to start taking actions now before the global warming many negative effects start becoming more catastrophic. In this paper I am going to explain the causes and the consequences of global warming and how it will impact the life of humanity in a long term perspective.

It is also known that volcanoes have affected the cause of global warming. Volcanoes are said to emit carbon dioxide (CO2) in two ways. First during the volcanic eruptions and secondly through underground magma which is a combination of molten rock and gases below the surface of the Earth that may erupt from a volcano as lava [12]. When the volcanoes erupt the gas from the volcanoes pollute the air causing gas emissions to be let out. Most of the carbon dioxide that is released by volcanoes is emitted by degassing of subterranean magma when the volcano is not erupting [5]. It is also said that volcanoes can “alter the orbit of the earth” which makes it a key factor for climate change. While volcanoes only exist in certain parts of the planet, the release of gas, dust, and ash into the atmosphere can cause a lot of damage. Even the smallest particles of dust can get trapped into the stratosphere for months which in turn will cause

With the rising global temperatures, the global warming has become more and more popular. In fact, it is a natural phenomenon, which has developed in recent decades due to human?s activities, such as burning of fossil fuels and deforestation. These actions will produce large amounts of greenhouse gas, which would cause the Earth 's temperature go up so that the climate will change. More importantly, the Global warming melt all the world 's glaciers and permafrost so that the level of the sea will go up. As a result, human and natural ecosystems will suffer from great harm. There are many reasons why the global climate is changing. Among those, there are two main reasons, the surge of population and serious environmental pollution. Unfortunately, those two reasons are caused by our human?s activities. This essay will analyse the cause of this problem and list two solutions on global warming. The first one is to promote clean energy and reduce the use of fossil fuels. The second one is to call for people to eat meat.

Global warming is the believe in which the actions of humanity and their way of life has impacted the world temperature of its atmosphere to rise up. Thus, heating up the planet or what is commonly known as Global Warming. This cause is occurring because of the greenhouse effect in which by producing a large amount of carbon dioxide, pollutants and heat, the suns warmth gets trapped in the planet’s atmosphere. In which instead of releasing the normal amount of heat it stays within the planet. For example, an iceberg that would normally take hundreds of years to melt it would only take a few years now. This is due because most humans don’t really think of their actions and most still believe till this day that the global warming is a hoax created by scientist. Yet scientist have confirmed that the greenhouse effect begins with the sun and the energy that it radiates to the earth. The earth might be able to absorb most of it with its atmosphere, while sending the rest back into space. Yet because we release extra greenhouse gases the earth can only reflect a little back to space. This makes the world become experience hotter days than it supposed to. For instance, if a water bottle is left on the freezer and then taken out it would take a lot of time for the ice to melt back into water. whereas if you were to hold it with your warm hands you would see the ice melt faster than usual. This is what happens when as humanities we overlook the fact that we are destroying our world little by little. We drive everyday worrying about getting from point A to point B on time that we forget that we are burning up fossil fuels. After the industrial revolution and the development of factories we began to multiply the gases we let out into the atmosphere. This causes for the ice caps that surround us to melt and increase the sea level, thus creating floods in certain parts of the worlds. Also large wildfires are growing because of the dangerous heat waves. For example in the country of India their streets have experience the extreme heatwaves where their asphalt has melted as if it was put in a furnace. In California, we also experience recent droughts were lakes were completely dried up, leaving no evidence of water. We are
