‘Global warming’ is the term
used to describe a gradual increase in the average temperature of the
earth’s atmosphere and its oceans,a change that is believed to be
permanently changing the earth’s climate.It is a big issue of the
atmosphere on the earth which cause continuous rise in the surface
temperature of the earth. It has been estimated that in next 50 or 100
years the temperature of earth would be increased to a great level
which could create big problem of living on earth. The highly known and
most basic cause of increasing the earth’s temperature is continuous
rise in the atmospheric carbon-di-oxide.
Global warming is primarily a problem of too much carbon dioxide in the
atmosphere which acts as a blanket trapping heat and warming the
planet. As we burn fossil fuel like coal,oil and natural gas for energy
or cut down and burn forests to create pastures and plantations,
carbon accumulates and overloads our atmosphere certain waste
management and agricultural practices aggravate the problem by releasing
other potent global warming gases, such as methane and nitrous oxide.
The effects of global warming are the environmental and social changes
caused by human emissions of greenhouse gases. There isa scientific
consensus that climate change is occurring and that human activities
are the primary driver. Many impacts of climate change have already
been observed, including glacier retreat changes in the timing of
seasonal events.
Global warming is a major atmospheric issue all over the world. Our
earth’s surface becoming hot day by day by trapping the sun’s
heat and rise in the level of atmospheric carbon-dioxide. The bad
effects of it are increasing day by day causing major problems to the
living of human beings. People should come forth together and try to
solve it in order to save life on the earth.
