Negative Effects of Global Warming on Earth

I should begin with addressing what global climate change is. Our environment is threatened to warm by 2 degrees Celsius and because of this our environment is warming itself faster than it can process and adapt. Due to the warming, our agriculture, weather, and even our human health are at risk. With the warming of our earth, it makes sense that we will begin to see changes in our weather. In fact, changes have already begun. Our storm surges are getting stronger meaning that hurricanes have intensified and are posing a threat to flood levels and to homes. There is an increase of sea levels due to the melting of glaciers which are causing more flooding than usual in places around the world. (McGrath 2014) Even though in some places we have flooding, we are experiencing droughts because of heat waves, and in turn, can cause wildfires. I personally remember when our winters used to be longer

Climate change is happening and it is happening quite rapidly all around the world. The earth is undoubtedly warming and over the past one hundred years, Earth’s average temperature has increased by about 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit. (EPA 1) The big problem with the average temperature rising is that it can have a negative effect on the planet and potentially have dramatic shifts in the global climate. According to the EPA, the United States Environmental Protection Agency, “Many places have seen changes in rainfall, resulting in more floods, droughts, or intense rain, as well as more frequent and severe heat waves. The planet's oceans and glaciers have also experienced some big changes - oceans are warming and becoming more acidic, ice caps are

How does the daily action of driving a car contribute to global warming pollution and other air pollutions? Economic growth has triggered an explosion in the automobile industry, but along with that expansion comes consequence. The motor vehicle business has increased air pollution, causing acid rain, and has also contributed to global warming. Global warming is the process of the earth heating up due to increased levels of gases such as carbon dioxide, on the the leading emissions from cars. Most americans drive a car in their day to day lives without being aware of the toxic emissions escaping right out of their tailpipe. The lack of knowledge about car emissions is dangerous because people do not fully understand how devastating it is on the environment. Emissions from cars are deadly to the environment and to the long term health of humans, if this problem is not addressed the future of the earth will be at risk. Eco friendly cars such as electric and solar powered cars have already been invented however their popularity is lacking, if the general public understood the momentousness of this issue maybe that would persuade them to partake in the movement.

Climate change has caused many problems to humans and ironically the cause of it are humans them selves. One of the major problems that climate changed has caused is food crisis; hotter temperatures will severely diminish the world's ability to grow crops and feed humanity and other animals. The effects of major heat waves recorded in the past were very excruciating like the one in Western Europe during the summer of 2003 which hunted the crop yield deeply. Also in 2003 Italy was affected by a big heat wave where a maze yield feel by 36%. These are major signs that humans won't have any thing to feed themselves in several years if this damaging global warming continues.

Throughout the history of the earth, there has been a continual change in the climate of the earth. According to Nasa, there have been seven cycles of glacial advance and retreat within the last 650,000 years. One of them being the last ice age that abruptly ended about 7,000 years ago which marked the beginning of modern civilization. The changes in climate are normally caused by slight variations in the orbit of the Earth around the Sun which causes there be an increase or decrease in the amount of solar energy the planet absorbs. Today, ninety-seven percent of scientist agree that the current climate-warming that has occurred over the past century is most likely due to the activities of humans. The current climate-warming trend is quite significant because it is proceeding at an unprecedented rate due to the human involvement.

Geoengineering is the on purpose mass manipulation of the environment, in an attempt to stop or slow down the effects of global warming. It is being used as we speak to help save the atmosphere and slow global warming. Although it’s known that global warming is changing the planet for the worse, is Geo-Engineering the best way to fight it? Global Warming is melting our ice caps and sea levels are constantly rising at an alarming rate. If it is not combatted many major cities will be wiped off of the planet. The world has been combating geoengineering for a while with emitting chemtrails one among many of ideas. Although many ways are quick and relatively cheap, they all have their downsides.

Each year, the temperature of the Earth only gets worse due to human actions. “Global warming is already responsible for some 150,000 deaths each year around the world, and fear that the number may well double by 2030” (Gould). This statement proves that the choices we make and activities we take part in, affect the population’s health negatively. Humans do not have the capacity to easily adapt to extreme temperature or to any other events resulted by global warming. All the direct and indirect effects of extreme weather only hurt humans because we create this situation. Health is one of the main aspects that is negatively impacted due to the rise of temperature. Therefore, our priority should be to maintain a healthy lifestyle. But all these problems around us make it impossible to be healthy in many ways and this results in damaging the human development since the pregnancy and after it, lungs problems, and mental stability issues.

To sustain life on earth, the earth temperature must be maintain at a very delicate figure. But what if the unthinkable happens? What if the earth’s temperature was to increase by a just mere half a degree, maybe a full or even two or three, the effects could be devastating to the environment, to me and to you. Unfortunately we may have the opportunity to see the effects of the earth temperature rising a few degrees in this lifetime. According to scientist, for hundreds of thousands of years, a phenomenon known as the greenhouse effect kept the earth at a comfortable temperature to allow life on earth. This process is necessary to support and maintain life on earth. But just like any good thing, too much of it could be dangerous. Greenhouse gases acts as a blanket that is wrapped around the earth. This traps energy in the atmosphere and the energy is then heated up by the sun’s rays. Because of this, another phenomenon has come to be. It is known as global warming. Global warming is constant rise in the global average temperature near the surface of the earth. Although to some, global warming is nothing more than a myth, a rumor to scare the race into rethinking their selfish acts, but global warming is no myth. I believe that global warming is far from a myth, it is real and it is dangerous. The evidence is all around us. If you look to the stars, you can see that the atmosphere is full of human-produced molecules that is casing the earth to warm. If you look at the same

Humans are funny to me. Of the billions of lightyears that make up the universe, an overwhelming amount of the space is void of any significant matter, dark to almost every degree. With the countless number of unique planets that exist in our everything, one stands out from all the others. A place where the universe can communicate with itself, live upon desire, and shape the future. A place we have long called home. Just the mere thought that our planet might be the only one that holds life, is such a remarkable idea. You would think that, as a culture, we would appreciate this concept and take care of Earth, however this is not the case. For the past few hundred years, we have taken advantage of our power, draining the planet of important fuels and emitting the toxic waste products into our environment. If we continue with these dangerous ways, we might not have a home for much longer. Global warming is without a doubt a major issue in today’s world that is significantly affecting us. It needs to be taken much more seriously or there could be grave consequences.

How would the population of the world appreciate it if the Earth got relentlessly hot in a matter of time? Well, this is global warming. This outrageous heat increase is something many think is microscopic and harmless, but it could change the Earth immensely in a matter of time. Made by human activity,global warming, including the burning of fossil fuel, and blazing down forests. Yet scientists can detect how much the Earth’s temperature is increasing, but countries can fix these problems by not depending on natural resources so much, reusing energy, and setting policies for climate change to help the public regulate it.

The temperature was taken at each of the sites to determine the heat of the water. The temperature of the water affects the dissolved oxygen as well as the rate of photosynthesis and the metabolic rates of water life. (Hovey, n.d) Warmer water can hold less dissolved oxygen and plants grow and die more quickly. Therefore it can be deduced that cooler water allows for a more comfortable environment for animals and vegetation.

Mother Earth is burning as we speak; humanity has killed our precious Earth. Global-warming is a vicious killer that was created by the humans on this Earth, and there 's no way to cure it. We,as humans, have the power to cleanse the Earth, but instead we destroy it. Heat is absorded by carbon dixide and greenhouse gases. A greenhouse gas absorb thermal radiation emmited by the Earth 's surface. As the sun 's energy reaches the Earth’s surface some of it goes back out into space, some is absorbed by the atmosphere, and the rest is emmited by the earth and warms the Earth. This is what we call the greenhouse effect which is the main reason we have global warming.

Damage caused by environmental destruction is often very subtle which tends to influence the scale of harm based on the crimes that are caused by individual wrongs. Environmental damaged that is caused by just one individual is exclusively minor which causes it to be unnoticed, whereas a major group of people harming the environment at once causes major harm to society. In the last few decades, there has been a heightened awareness of environmental issues by governments, policy makers, advocacy groups, business firms, and the public all over the world. More than a century of industrial development has caused negative environmental impacts such as global warming, ozone depletion, and air and water pollution. These are recognized as global environmental problems that need immediate solutions. International environmental agreements, government environmental policies and regulation, industry environmental management practices, and pro-environmental consumer behavior are some ways of addressing environmental problems. Global warming, is one of the most noticeable example of worldwide corporate environmental impact. The corporate role in this, the potentially most severe and all-encompassing of environmental disasters, is quite clear.

Nowadays, we are facing a lot of environmental threats, and the main of them are air pollution, water pollution and global warming. Air pollution is caused by substances that may harm living things or damage non-living things. Some common atmospheric pollutants are carbon monoxide, methane, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide and so on. Industry production, usage of non-clean energy and vehicles are three main sources of air pollution. Water pollution includes natural pollution and man-made pollution. Due to the dissolution of geological, atmospheric precipitation leaching, erosion on the ground, mix the various pollutants into the water. Man-made pollution is made by industrial wastewater, daily life sewage and pesticide and fertilizer pollution. Global warming is related to greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane. Due to the existence of greenhouse gases, the radiation, which comes from the Sun and reaches the Earth’s surface, is reflected back to Earth, making the temperature of Earth’s surface higher and higher.
