Global Warming Causes

 


  Have you ever felt that nowadays the temperature is quite changing? Have you ever felt that the sea levels are increasing a bit? If you do feel it that means our earth is on high alert. Our earth is slowly changing every year. This is known as global warming. Some people think that global warming is a conspiracy, but believe it or not it's already happened around us. So what is global warming? What causes global warming? How should we prevent that? 

  Global warming is the phenomenon of increasing average air temperatures near the surface of Earth over the past one to two centuries by human activities. Since the industrial revolution, the global annual temperature has increased in total by a little more than 1 degree Celsius or about 2 degrees Fahrenheit. The effect of global warming can lead to climate change, melting ice, and ocean disruption. 

  People often call the result global warming, but it is causing a set of changes to the earth's climate or long-term weather patterns. Climate change encompasses not only rising average temperatures but also extreme weather events that never happened before, shifting wildlife populations and habitats, rising seas, and other impacts. 

  Melting Ice. Perhaps this one is the most visible effect of global warming so far is the melting of glaciers and sea ice. The ice sheets have been retreating since the end of the last ice age. Moreover, some of the most immediate impacts of global warming are beneath the blue sea. Ocean act as a carbon sponge, which means they absorb and dissolve carbon dioxide. That is a good thing for the atmosphere, but it is not great for the marine ecosystem. When carbon dioxide reacts with seawater, it becomes more acidic. This can lead to coral bleaching.

  So, what causes global warming? Global warming occurs when carbon dioxide and other air pollutants collect in the atmosphere. The earth absorbs sunlight and solar radiation that have bounced off the earth's surface. The normal procedure is that solar radiation would escape into space, but the pollutants trap the heat and cause the planet to get hotter. These heat-trapping pollutants are known as greenhouse gases and their impact is called the greenhouse effect. 

  Some of you might be thinking, can we prevent all this madness? The answer is yes. Our lifestyles have a profound impact on our planet. We might not be able to end global warming but we can reduce the flow such as, alter our ways of transportation. Instead of using a car, try cycling to work and inspire others. Avoid wasting food. A pile of rotting food can produce methane that can lead to greenhouse gas. Make sure your plate is always clean. Recycle. Recycling is the easiest way to help prevent global warming but also one of the most beneficial solutions. 

  So, our earth needs our help. We have to believe to ourselves that we are capable to prevent global warming. Since global warming is happening to human activities then we can prevent the ongoing global warming. Could you imagine what will happen if it is too late? Thank you for your time and hopefully, you have learned something new today. Have a nice day 😀.

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone? Quite a lot, isn't it?   Smartphones and text messaging help partners display love and affection to each other when they are physically apart. However, what happens when smart...

The concept of bushido seemed to be finished and ended forever.   As the country grew into one of t...

About Telekinesis

    Have you ever dreamed to able moving objects around with your mind, like in a film? The power of telekinesis has captured the imagination of scientists, psychics, and fiction writers for centuries unproven by science.   So what is the definition of telekinesis? Telekinesis or psychokinesis refers to the alleged ability to move objects with the power of the mind or willpower, without physical interaction.   Telekinesis is from the Greek words, tele means "distant" and kinesis means "movement". If we combine together, it refers to the apparent ability to move physical objects using only the mind and without any physical interaction.   The idea of telekinesis has been in the imagination of fiction writers for ages, allowing the characters to demonstrate telekinetic abilities to move objects, restrain opponents, and levitate for dramatic effect.   However, many have claimed to have telekinetic abilities and believe that telekinesis is possible, but no one h...
