Global Warming



Global warming is often associated with the average increase in the temperature of the atmosphere near the earth’s surface. The use of our natural resources without any care for the future is often associated with the increasing level of planet’s gases such as carbon monoxide. For over the past years, the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal and oil, and deforestation has caused the concentration of heat-trapping planet gases to increase significantly in our atmosphere. These gases prevent heat from escaping to space, somewhat like the glass panels of a planet. These gases are very important in maintaining life as we know it, but as the concentrations of these gases continue to increase in the atmosphere, the earth’s temperature is starting to rise as well. Other aspects of the climate are also changing such as rainfall patterns, snow and ice cover, and sea level. Human kind knows now that global warming is a reality and that the future is our responsibility, we cannot fix it but we can improve it
