About Global Warming

By Joshua Darden


Global warming is the increase of the temperature of earth's lower atmosphere resulting to a climatic change that was caused by the increase of greenhouse gases. There are two types of greenhouse gases. One of those is the natural greenhouse gas such as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane. On the other hand are man-made gases such as perfluorocarbons (PFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) that were generated from human industrial factories.

About Greenhouse Effects

The greenhouse effect involves entrapment of the energy from the sun to sustain life on earth by keeping it warm. Without the greenhouse effect, all parts of the Earth will be icy cold that no form of life would be able to exist. Thought this process had good effects on humans, it only last for as long as it works moderately. Going over what's normal could be too alarming and dangerous for the lives of all people and other living things on Earth.

Burning of fossil fuels, harmful gases being emitted by factories, smoke belching and agricultural activities are causes of a bad greenhouse effect. The above scenarios are producing a huge amount of excess gases that can be trapped in the atmosphere. This will result to a drastic climate change that could destroy life through floods and drought, strong storm and hurricanes, wildlife extinction, spread of viral or epidemic diseases and economical problems.

Preventing Global Warming

The increase of atmospheric temperature had greatly affected the environment and the life forms that reside on it. Different nations are now becoming pro-active to prevent global warming and its effects and all is encouraged to take part in every advocacies or program. Reduction of greenhouse gases usage, developing of renewable energy, improving of energy efficiency, reduction of gasoline consumption for transportation, reservation of forest, slowing down of population growth and eliminating CFC'S (chlorofluorocarbons) are some of the ways that people can do to help.

Everyone should take part in restoring their planet as this is their only home. Planting and growing of trees, making use of energy efficient appliances, doing the easy task of unplugging electronics when not in use, recycling and a major change in transportation habits are some of the simple things that people can do in their busy life to help preserve mother earth. Spreading the word through social media and other forms of communication can be a big help towards awareness and change. Informing your friends, family and relatives can be a start of winning the war against the harmful effects of global warming.
