Global Warming is an increase in the earth 's atmospheric and oceanic temperatures widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution. The Earth 's temperature is rising every year, between 1906 and 2005 the temperature rose 1.1 degrees to 1.6 degrees and has doubled in the last 50 years. The greenhouse gases are needed for human life on this earth, global warming is slowly taking out these gases and hurting the planet and the the human and wildlife. Since 1975 scientists and environmentalists have been studying global warming and the effects climate change has had on earth. Today we believe that the damage done to the ozone affects our wildlife and much more and we …show more content…
The scientists first discovered that burning of fossil fuels has contributed to this global warming. Since the Industrial Revolution in 1970, carbon dioxide levels have increased nearly 38 percent as of 2009 and methane levels have increased 148 percent. The temperature has also risen more than 3.6 degrees fahrenheit, above the pre-industrial levels. The warmest decade in the history was 1880 but in the 2001 to 2010 decade the levels became the highest they have ever been. Since then, 2012 was the hottest year ever recorded in the United States, also the 12 warmest years on record have all occurred since the year 1998. Global warming has the potential to shake up many things in the world, like changes to rainfall and snow patterns, increase droughts and severe storms, reduce lake ice cover, melt glaciers, change plant and animal behavior, and increase sea levels. Other things like longer and more damaging wildfire seasons, more frequent and intense heat waves, and many health impacts on humans. Along with all of this many scientists don’t know what is in store, they can only hope that it will not continue to …show more content…
The greatness and rate of future environmental change will essentially rely on upon the accompanying variables: The rate at which levels of nursery gas focuses in our climate keep on increasing. How firmly elements of the atmosphere react to the normal increment in nursery gas focuses. Regular impacts on atmosphere and normal procedures inside the atmosphere framework. Researchers use PC models of the atmosphere framework to better comprehend these issues and venture future atmosphere changes. The sea levels will rise and change the way the earth looks and is made up. In a plausible situation for environmental change, New Orleans will no more exist. Neither will Atlantic City, N.J. Boston will look much as it did in the seventeenth century, before the city was dug up to manufacture a port. What 's more, Florida will no more keep its particular extremity shape. Researchers have high certainty that worldwide temperatures will keep on rising for a considerable length of time to come, to a great extent because of nursery gasses delivered by human exercises. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which incorporates more than 1,300 researchers from the United States and different nations, estimates a temperature ascent of 2.5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the following
