1. What is global warming?

- is a phenomenon where the earth’s average temperature rises due to increased
amounts of greenhouse gases.
2. Why is global warming cursed?
- A rise in global temperatures increases the severity and likelihood of storms,
floods, wildfires, droughts, and heat waves. In a warmer climate, the atmosphere
can collect, retain, and drop more water, leading to changing precipitation patterns.
3. Greenhouse effect
- It is the effect of warming the earth’s surface and the lower atmosphere. A
greenhouse gas is called that because it absorbs infrared radiation from the Sun in
the form of heat, which is circulated in the atmosphere and eventually lost to
space.
4. Future conscientious about global warming and its effects
- The potential future effects of global climate change include more frequent
wildfires, longer periods of drought in some regions, and an increase in the
duration and intensity of tropical storms. It includes melting of polar ice caps,
leading to an increase in sea level drowning coastlines and slowly submerging
continents. Recent studies by National Snow and Ice Data Center “if the ice
melted today the seas would rise about 230 feet”. Another effect is climate change
leading to the extinction of various species.
5. How can we low down the possible outcome of global warming?
- We have to reduce the usage of fossil fuels and electricity right away. Opt for
eco-friendly options like solar energy and wind power. Take up the habit of
recycling and reusing. Do not throw away things or trash, instead learn to reuse
them properly.
