Topic: Report writing on global warming
This report is prepared by Sara Arshad, a university student in order to aware people about
the treats of Global warming.
Abstract:
Global warming has been recognized as the most environmental problem of the twenty
first century and has become a subject of considerable debate. It is predicted to lead to
adverse, irreversible impacts on earth and ecosystem as a whole. Although it is a difficult to
connect specific weather event to global warming increase in global temperature has
predicted to cause broader changes, including glacial retreat arctic shrinkage and
worldwide sea level rise
Introduction:
Global warming is the average temperature of Earth has increases since 1950 until now
the temperature continuing increasing. Global warming can also refers to climate change
that causes an increase in the average of temperature. However global warming are causes
by natural events and human that are believed to be contribute to increase in average
temperatures. Global warming is the continuous rise in warming of the earth’s surface due
to the increased level of carbon dioxide gas in the environment. Global warming has
become a big issue which need to be solved by the positive initiation of countries all over
the world. As gradual increase in the earth temperature calls various threats as well as
makes the existence of life hard on this planet. It enhances the gradual and permanent
changes in the earth’s climate and thus affecting the nature’s balance.
Rise in the CO2 level on the earth impacts the human life to a great level through continued
heat waves, sudden occurrence of strong storms, unpredictable and unexpected cyclone,
damage to ozone layer, floods, heavy rain, drought, lack of food, diseases, death etc. It has
been researched that increasing emissions of CO2 in the atmosphere is because of the
nonstop burning of fossil fuels, usage of fertilizers, cutting forests, extra use of electricity,
gases used in refrigerator etc. According to the statistics, it has been noted that by 2020
global warming may boom its bad effects if it is not taken under control as CO2 emissions
are increasing continuously.
The increasing level of CO2 causes greenhouse effect on the earth in which all the
greenhouse gases (water vapour, CO2, methane, ozone) absorbs thermal radiation, which
in turn re-radiated to all directions and come back to earth surface causing increase in the
temperature of earth surface and lead to global warming.
Causes
Global warming has become a grave problem which needs undivided attention. It is not
happening because of a single cause but several causes. These causes are both natural as well
as manmade. The natural causes include the release of greenhouses gases which are not able
to escape from earth, causing the temperature to increase.
Further, volcanic eruptions are also responsible for global warming. That is to say, these
eruptions release tons of carbon dioxide which contributes to global warming. Similarly,
methane is also one big issue responsible for global warming.After that, the excessive use of
automobiles and fossil fuels results in increased levels of carbon dioxide. In addition, activities
like mining and cattle rearing are very harmful to the environment. One of the most common
issues that are taking place rapidly is deforestation.
So, when one of the biggest sources of absorption of carbon dioxide will only disappear, there
will be nothing left to regulate the gas. Thus, it will result in global warming. Steps must be
taken immediately to stop global warming and make the earth better again.
Effects
The greenhouse gases will stay in the atmosphere for many years since hundreds years
ago. However, the effect that global warming will cause on earth are extremely serious.
There are many effects that will happen in the future if global warming continues. That
includes polar ice caps melting, economic consequences, warmer waters and more
hurricanes, spread of diseases and earthquake
First effect is polar ice caps melting. As the temperature increase, the ice at the North Pole
will melt. Once the ice melt the first effect will be raise on sea levels because the melting
glaciers become oceans. According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center “if the ice
melted today the seas would rise about 230 feet”. It affects many low lying areas such as
the Netherlands. In future, the Netherlands will be cover by water once the North Pole is
melted. However, it is not going to happen so fast but the sea level will continue rise.
Another effect is the species loss of habitat. Species that include polar bears and tropical
frogs will be extinct due to climate change. Besides, various birds will migrate to other
places because animals are not like humans. They cannot adapt the habitat that changes
their living or temperature.
Next effect is more hurricanes will occur and economic consequences still affect as well.
Hurricane causes damage to houses and government need to spend billions of dollars in
damage and people need places to stay or have been killed. Once a disaster happens many
people have died and diseases happen. Diseases are more serious because it can spread to
other people very fast and more people will get the disease and the disease maybe come
more serious because of different weather.
Solution to Stop Global Warming
Now there are solutions that we can stop global warming. However we human and
governments need to move forward to implement the global warming solutions. To reduce
global warming we can do to reduce the contribution of greenhouse gases to the
atmosphere. Therefore, the solutions that we can reduce global warming are reducing
gasoline, electricity and our activities that cause global warming.
To reduce gasoline mean we have a choice to choose a hybrid car that reduce using
gasoline. Besides, petrol price are increasing. If a person everyday drives to work they need
to pump petrol after 3 days and causes carbon dioxide. Another way to reduce gasoline is
take public transport or carpool to work. It can help reduce carbon dioxide and save cost.
Another way to reduce global warming is recycle. Recycle can reduce garbage by reusing
plastic bags, bottles, papers or glass. For instance, when we buy foods, we can use our own
containers instead of plastic bags. Another example is after finish drinking the water from
the bottle; we can reuse it or use our own bottle. If all this is being reuse, human can reduce
deforestation and help save environment. Besides, turn off electricity if unused. It can save
thousands of carbon dioxide and buy product that have energy saving because it saves cost
and save environment.
Finally, human should stop open burning such as burning dry leafs or burning garbage. It
will release carbon dioxide and toxic if burning garbage with plastic. Besides, government
should reduce deforestation because the earth temperatures are increasing. Trees will help
to improve the temperature on earth.
Conclusion
Overall of this assignment, I have understood that our earth is “sick”. We humans need to
“heal” the earth. Global Warming have causes many problem for human but we human who
make global warming happens. Many people have died because of disease or disaster. It
also affects the economics of the country. However, we need to be reduce the global
warming by using less gasoline, recycle and human should help to reduce global warming
instead of making the earth temperature increased. Our generation should start taking care
of the earth because in the next generation they will suffer if we do not do reduce global
warming. Therefore, global warming is a serious issue now. As a business student we are
learning it because we need to understand the effect of climate change that will affect us
when we have our business and we can start saving the earth.
