THE THREAT FROM GLOBAL WARMING ON NATURE

Global warming effects are a threat to the world that we live in. The impact of climate change is already being felt and we must work to make significant changes.

Global warming has been recognized as a threat for the past several decades. The impact of climate change is already being felt around the world foreshadowing the disastrous changes to come if global warming effects are not reversed.

The rises in temperatures felt by the people of Earth today are nothing compared to what the impact of climate change will bring in the future.

Many of our day-to-day activities are changing the planet.

Global warming effects are felt not only in the large industrial areas of the planet; they can be felt is small remote villages and unpopulated areas of the Earth also.

Our activities produce carbon, methane, and other dangerous gasses that are destroying the ozone layer, the layer of the atmosphere that protects us from the sun’s harmful rays.

Chlorofluorocarbons are only one of the many ways we are destroying the ozone. Global warming effects result  from these gasses as they escape from our refrigerators and our air-conditioning units.

While ecological experts are not asking you to do away with all of these modern conveniences, they are asking you make good and educated choices when it comes protecting our planet.

Global warming effects can be seen in many of the major patterns in the world’s weather. The impact of climate change can be seen in droughts, floods, and other forms of weather. 

If you grew up in an area that now experiences significantly less snow every year you are experiencing the impact of climate change.

Global warming effects can be dangerous. With major changes in weather patterns come other major problems.

Without cooler weather insects will not die off each year and harmful bacteria and other organisms will grow.

These growths lead to major outbreaks of disease and the deaths of many people.

Farming and agriculture are also affected as the growing and harvesting seasons are thrown off course. T

he life in the seas and rivers of our planet will also feel these massive changes.

If the current outlook does not change, our planet will eventually become uninhabitable due to global warming affects.

What can one individual do to combat global warming effects? It may seem dire and hopeless when presented with the above facts.

In reality, it is far from hopeless. There are actions individuals can take today that will have positive effects on the future of the planet. Global warming can be slowed only if people take a personal interest in doing so.

The impact of climate change can become more positive if every home works to become green.

Composting, recycling, and other activities are simple and do not involve major life changes.

A family of four can make a huge impact on the environment by changing the way they eat and learning to shop and eat locally grown produce.

These and other green choices will positively affect global warming.
