Global Warming
Global warming is the gradual increase in the overall temperature of the Earth atmosphere. Some of the things causing global warming, or certainly not helping, are the increased level of carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons and other pollutants.
All of the things stated cause the layer of greenhouse gases to become thicker causing the temperature of the Earth to increase. The Earth becomes hotter and hotter.
Global warming is worst in cold places such as Antarctica. The average temperature in Antarctica has increased by nearly 3 celsius in the last 50 years. This big temperature rise has been very bad for Antarctica. It has caused ice shelves to break up and the temperature in Antarctica is predicted to rise even more in the next 50 years. The rise in temperature is not only bad for the natural landscapes but also for the wildlife living there. The rise in the sea temperature is threatening populations of penguins, seals, whales and other small sea creatures living in the water.
The sea in Antarctica had a rise in temperature that was not expected so many people are worried worried about the marine wildlife because the animals are very sensitive to temperature change. Global warming can have a very severe impact on Antarctica in the next few years.
If we do not do anything to stop this, global warming will surely lead to th deaths of many lives and extinction of certain animal species.
What you can do:
To stop global warming we must act now. You can start by doing some simple tasks that can change everything:
- Plant trees
- Don't use to much hot water
- Turn of the electricity or electronics when you are not using them
- Reduce, reuse, recycle
- Spread Awareness
