Do you hear the most dangerous issues? There are many issues that happened in our world. One of them is the most dangerous issues, and we called it Global Warming. The temperature is rising when we have dramatically increase in the amount of carbon dioxide, CFC and other pollutants in the earth's atmosphere. This condition will have attributed to the greenhouse effect. Global Warming gives many disadvantages to our earth. So we should prevent the increasing of global warming. We should think about the solution to keep our earth save.
First, what is the cause of global warming? Actually, there are many things that can led the increasing of global warming, but we have one specific cause of global warming. The specific cause of global warming is the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect happened because there is increasing level in the amount of greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and Methane) in the earth's atmosphere. Then, our earth cannot emit the infrared because the cloud and the greenhouse gases held up it to return to earth surface.
Second, what is the effect of global warming? Actually there are many effect of global warming. From small until big problem to our life. The effect of global warming is:
- Climate Change
- Climate change is the change of global or regional climate patterns because of the increased level of carbon dioxide in earth's atmosphere.
- Melting Polar Icecaps
- The rising of temperatures makes polar icecaps melted. It will make our ecosystem in unbalance condition.
- Disappearing Countries
- Because of the melting polar icecaps, the sea level increase and the amount of water in our earth also rising. Many countries would disappear because the water in our earth increase.
- Disease
- As the climate change and the rising of temperature, it can affect the health of humans and the diseases they are exposed to. The disease easy to spread when the climate change happens, like malaria disease.
- Crops Failure
- Crops Failure would happen because the climate pattern was changing and the crops are barely getting a fighting chance.
- Life Extinction
- After the melting polar icecaps, flooding, and the crops failure, there is a prediction that in the 2050 more than a million of worldwide species could be extinct. This happen because they could not find their habitat and their food resource.
After we know the effect global warming, we should think about the solution to keep our earth safe. The solution to decrease the amount of global warming is:
- 3R (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle)
- Save the electricity
- Move to eco-friendly vehicle
- Plant a tree
- Share awareness to other people
By the methods that mentioned above, we probably can decrease or prevent the global warming. It is maybe like simple method, but if we start to try the method we can improve the quality of our earth in the future. Never give up to share awareness to other people and educate them about global warming. Tell them how they can contribute their part by saving energy that will be good for the environment. Global warming is a big havoc for our earth. We, as the part of earth, should keep the earth safe for better life in our future.
