Climate changes due to global warming
The earth’s climate these days are very unpredictable. They keep on changing and there is
no fixed pattern of changes in the seasons these days as we had in the few decades ago. The changes in the climate
seen in the recent years and the predicted climate changes for the next 50 years or so are considered to be the
result of the human behavior, rather than the natural changes in the atmosphere. Many environmentalists and
scientists have studied and are still studying about the various climatic changes due to the effect of global
warming. Recent talks, discussions and dialogues carried out all over the world have all highlighted the evil
effects of global warming and the climatic changes that occur due to it, and people now believe that the
changes in the climate is due to the emission of gases like carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Even though there are different reasons behind the changing of the climate, many people believe that our Planet
Earth is going through a period of immense changes. The prime reason for the planet Earth to be heating up is
Global warming. The global warming has brought about climate changes in all parts of the world. The most affected
areas due to global warming is the warming of the polar zones which has melted the ice caps and brought the water
from the melted ice to the oceans, causing an ecological balance and also affecting the lifestyles of thousands of
people. The green house effect is also an important factor in climate changes as the gases released in the
atmosphere tend to keep the Earth warm. This is considered to be a major threat to the planet Earth in the near
future.
Scientists from all parts of the world are on the look out for the various reasons and evidences that are
causing the climate changes the world over. The global warming will also result in increase in rainfall and hence
see a rise in the sea levels. So in the years to come, flooding will cause a lot of damage to the planet Earth and
the low lying areas all over the world will be the first to be hit by this climatic change. Flooding will lead to a
serious disease called malaria erupting in this planet. The symptoms are now itself prevalent.
According to the numerous scientific studies, the surface temperature of the planet Earth has increased by about
one degree Fahrenheit in the last century. In fact, a vast amount of change has taken place in the past two
decades. It is believed that the lifestyles of the people all over the world is one of the main reason for the
surface temperature rise of our planet. Carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane are some of the common gases that
are released into the atmosphere from the factories and industries all over the world. These gases tend to trap
heat and when they are released into the outer atmosphere, they tend to trap the heat energy that is normally
reflected by the earth’s natural processes. All these rise in temperatures will lead to serious drought
conditions all over the world.
There is no doubt in anyone’s mind that all these gases that are let out into the atmosphere from the
modern revolution factories and industries have caused a lot of climatic changes in the environment. The main gas
that is causing a lot of temperature variations in this planet is Carbon dioxide. As more and more gases are
released into the air, the planet will get hotter and hotter. Many plants and animals and even humans, is finely
tuned to live in temperatures that are presently in the planet. As the temperature in the planet rises, it will
become very very difficult for the living things to survive in this planet.
The only way to reduce or slow down the pace of the alarming consequences of global warming
and climatic changes is in the hands of the people living in this Earth. The people all over this world should stop
producing or letting out of the poisonous gases into the atmosphere. Also deforestation or felling of the trees has
to be stopped immediately as trees are the only source of oxygen for the people living in this world. The climatic
changes seen in this world is in relation to the human acts and changes done by them on this Earth. Hence, all the
people will have to pay personal attention to the various changes that this planet is undergoing as the world is
developing.
It is upto each individual living in this planet to do something to this problem of global warming which has
caused a lot of changes in the climate all over the world recently. A few remedies is that people can use low
energy lamps, reduce the use of car or other motorized transportations, planting of more trees in their locality,
conservation of water etc. Also it is high time that the younger generations are educated in detail, the harmful
effects of the global warming and the varying climatic patterns seen in the world these days. With a little effort
from all the people living in this planet, it is possible to protect the natural resources and to reduce the
effects of global warming and make this world this world a better place to live in.
