Global Warming
Global warming is an
aspect of climate
change,referring
to the long-term rise
of the planet's
temperatures.
Global Warming - Effects
Hotter temperatures
More severe storms
Increased drought
rising ocean
Loss of species
Not enough fooD
More health risks
Poverty and displacement
Global Warming - main causes
1. Usage of vehicles: Cars and trucks
2. When trees are cut, the stored
carbon is released into the atmosphere
as Carbon dioxide which leads to
global warming
3. Fossil fuel burning: Burning of
fossil fuels release carbon dioxide
which is a greenhouse gas, into the air.
4. Development of industry: Certain
chemical reactions used in product
manufacturing produce greenhouse
gases.
Global Warming – ways to stop it
-Drive less
-Recycle more
-Use less hot water
-Avoid products with a lot of
packaging
-Adjust your thermostat
-Plant a tree.
Global Warming - What will life be like in 100 years?
The earth would become
warmer, the average
temperature will
increase. There will be
several new weather
patterns and the sea
levels would rise.
Eventually humans
would die out.If the
insect population
continues to decline,
all birds that depend
on insect for food will
become extinct.
Global Warming – why should we care?
Climate change won't just
impact forests, or coral
reefs, or even people
in far-off countries –
it will affect all of us. From
more extreme weather to
increasing food prices,
to recreation and decreased
opportunities to appreciate
the natural world,
people everywhere will feel
its effects.
Global Warming – Is it too late?
The short answer to
whether it's too late to
stop climate change
is: yes.But there's still
time to prevent
cascading effects,as
every degree of
additional warming has
exponentially
disastrous
impacts,experts say.
