What is global warming, and should we be worried about it? What are the major reasons why we are facing global warming?
Global Warming and Its Causes?
Global Warming is the increase in the average temperature of the earth’s surface. Over the past century, Earth has warmed by around 0.9 degrees C.
Yes, it’s a very serious matter that we should worry about. If global warming keeps on increasing like this it can one day change the whole condition on earth negatively, and many species of animals and plants will disappear, including humans. The major effects of Global warming are climate changes (sudden increase and decrease in temperature without any order like now it is going) Frequent heat waves, rising sea level, melting of glaciers, natural disasters like floods, and droughts, failing crops. These will cause a lack of food in the whole world, and people will die from hunger, various diseases as glaciers have melted. According to many scientists, in glaciers, there are 100 of bacteria and viruses trapped, which can cause great damage to life.
We are facing Global warming on a large scale because we humans are exploiting our earth for our profit and requirement, ignoring the fact that in the future, we have to face great consequences. We know everything, but our greed for more makes us do wrong every time regardless that what we are doing is wrong. Human activities like air pollution, industrialization and deforestation, volcanic eruptions, and solar variations are major causes of global warming. and the most important depletion of the ozone layer. It is the only layer that protects the earth from its direct heat rays i.e. Ultra violent rays which is the major cause of global warming. The reason for depletion of it is chloro fluorocarbon, carbon monoxide, etc hot gases that comes 70 to 80 % from Air conditioners and refrigerators. These gases are hot, so they go up into the atmosphere easily and react with ozone and break it into Oxygen and O elements (ozone is made of 3 particles of O).
