Global warming refers to the gradual increase in average air and water temperatures worldwide due to the accumulation of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere. If left unaddressed, the rising temperatures will significantly impact life on Earth. The primary cause of global warming is human activities that have increased greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere by around 100% over the last 50 years. Some ways to help stop global warming include reducing waste by recycling, buying energy-efficient appliances and light bulbs, and planting trees which absorb carbon dioxide.
2. What is global warming Global warming is both a premise that the environment of the world as we know it is slowly, but very surely increasing in overall air and water temperature, and a promise that if whatever is causing this trend is not interrupted or challenged life on earth will dynamically be affected.
4. Cause of global warming Almost 100% of the observed temperature increase over the last 50 years has been due to the increase in the atmosphere of greenhouse gas concentrations like water vapour, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane and ozone.
6. Help to stop it 1. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: whenever you can, recycle paper, plastic, newspaper, glass and aluminum cans.By recycling half of your household waste, you can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide annually.
7. Buy Energy-Efficient Products Home appliances now come in a range of energy-efficient models, and compact florescent bulbs are designed to provide more natural-looking light while using far less energy than standard light bulbs.
8. Plant a Tree trees and other plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. They are an integral part of the natural atmospheric exchange cycle here on Earth. A single tree will absorb approximately one ton of carbon dioxide during its lifetime.
