Global Warming, The Worst Thing That We Have to Fight

Don’t you realize that our earth becomes hot? Don’t you realize that the climate has changed? All of this is the result of the new phenomenon that becomes hot issue. Most of people worldwide are having discussion about it. It’s known as global warming. The new phenomenon as the result of glass—house effect. It creates new disasters that humans never imagine before. It has also made the people suffer. Today, many people worldwide are having discussion what the other causes of it except glass—house effect, what are the impacts of it for human life, and what we can do to prevent it.
As we know before that the global warming is the result of glass—house effect. Meanwhile, there also many causes beside the glass—house effect. First, the carbon dioxide from power plants such as coal. We know that coal is our sources as the fuel for industries. We realize or not, coal contains about 80 percent more carbon per unit inside. We can imagine how bad it for our environment. Second, the carbon dioxide emitted from cars. In United States, about 33 percent carbon dioxide emissions come from the burning of gasoline in internal—combustion engines of cars and light trucks. Third, the carbon dioxide comes from airplanes. According to the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, aviation causes 3, 5 percent of global warming and it can rise up to 15 percent in 2050. Last but not least, is the methane? We know that methane is more than 20 times as effective as Co2 at trapping heat in the atmosphere. It comes from sources such as rice paddies, bovine flatulence, and bacteria in bogs and fossil fuel production.
There are several impacts of global warming that can be bad for environment. We have felt that the temperature is going to increase day by day. It makes terrible things everywhere in the world such as ice is melting especially in North and South Pole; sea level rise became faster over the last century. Also, global warming has changed the climate. It creates the precipitation (snow and rainfall) increase across the globe. And there are more disasters would happen if the global warming continues such as:
• Hurricanes and others storms are likely become stronger
• Some diseases will spread worldwide
• Less fresh water will be available
• Floods and droughts will become more common
So, what we should do to prevent this phenomenon in order to save our environment for our grandchild in the next future. There are many ways that we can do. First, we can recycle garbage. For example you can recycle paper into envelopes, or anything else. Second, decrease the use of car by use the public transportations, walk, and cycle. Third, turn off the electronic appliances when they’re not use. Do not use dishwasher machine. Cut off the use off electricity because when we reduce electric power use, we save money, breathe cleaner air, and help to reduce the global warming problem.
As we have discussed previous that global warming is the new phenomenon which causes many new problems that humans never imagine before. There are several causes of global warming except glass—house effect such as carbon dioxide from power plants, emission of cars, airplanes, etc. Global warming has created many disasters such as the increasing of temperature, the climate change, etc. if we want to save our environment and grandchild in the next future, we have do something to stop it. There are many ways that we can do to prevent not stop global warming such as decrease the use of cars, turn off the electronic appliances when they’re not use, recycle garbage, etc. Have we done it yet? Or we just stay without doing anything? Let’s stop global warming together.
