GLOBAL WARMING
Hello Stemians, Hope you all will be doing great. I am Fatima Imran from Pakistan and a newcomer in Steemit, this is my first post about Global Warming which is a very general topic. May you all will like it.
What Is Global Warming:
Global warming is a slow boom within the common temperature of the Earth's surroundings and its oceans, a change believed to be permanent in Earth's weather. It commonly refers to the sustained growth in Earth's common ground temperature because of human sports particularly the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
Green House Gases:
The gases that trap the heat in the atmosphere increase the Earth's temperature and is called the "greenhouse effect" The gases are called "greenhouse gases" because they behave like glass covering the greenhouse which is responsible for maintaining the temperature of the greenhouse used to cultivate vegetation in cold climate regions.
The main greenhouse gases are CO2-CH4-SO-N2O-O3 and some other gases emitted from various industrial processes.
The effect was more fully quantified by Svante Arrhenius in 1896 who made the first quantitative prediction of "Global Warming" due to a hypothetical doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide.
Causes Of Global Warming:
- Generating power generating electricity and heat by burning fossil fuels causes a large chunk of global warming.
- Cutting down forests ( Deforestation )
- increasing livestock farming.
- volcanic eruptions.
- Pollution
- Transportation
- waste disposal
Effects Of Global Warming:
- With an increase in the temperature the average temperature increases.
- Rise in the sea level
- Leads to soil erosion and unseasonal rains.
- Ice melts at a rapid pace.
- The ocean, which is basic(with a PH of 8.1), becomes acidic.
- Increase in spreading of waterborne and insect-borne diseases.
Prevention Of Global Warming:
- Planting trees
- Advocate the importance of a healthy planet
- Reduce the burning of fossil fuels
- Sustainable transportation
- Renewable energy
- Avoid deforestation
