Global Warming

One of the biggest problems that our world is facing today is global warming. Many scientists believe that the carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases we produce are the two worst culprits in this problem. These gases are emitted into the atmosphere mainly by human activities such as the increasing use of vehicles and the flourishing industries worldwide. These are the major sources where fossil fuels are used for combustion, which, in turn, emit more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and thus causing increased warmth on Earth.

Global warming has many effects, and the effects are obviously very dangerous to humankind. One effect global warming has on the environment is that it affects sea level. Global warming raises overall temperature and causes the glaciers and ice caps to melt, which makes the water expand. When this happens, sea level tends to rise rapidly than usual. Also, ocean acidification is also affected by global warming. Carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases that cause global warming. So due to the rise in sea levels and precipitation, the carbon dioxide is mixed more with sea water, and this is a major concern for our aquatic life, especially for our corals. Most importantly, global warming affects the weather. Global warming affects the weather by making the climate hot or cold, or switching it back and forth (National Geographic).

Environmentalists argue that it is because of us that we are experiencing global warming today. They said that we are the one responsible for it because it is from our daily activities that global warming was made. Due to the fact that most people in this country own a car and these cars emit pollution that destroys the ozone layer. Additionally, it is evident that paper is ...

... strategy is to plant more trees. Trees absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen, which is not a greenhouse gas. Also, we could use less energy, and we can start recycling more products. Generating electricity is one of the main sources of carbon dioxide. If we use less electricity, we will produce less carbon dioxide. We are all liable to this dilemma, therefore, it can also help that we comply with the rules and regulations of our government.

Different cultures may call for different theological practices, but what important is that we could be united as we protect the world (Jenkins 88). This dilemma is not unprecedented. There are already number of proposals and tactics given to us by the knowledgeable. However, it is in our hands if we are willing to make the difference. If we make small changes now in the way we live, we can have huge changes in the future.
