Global Warming
Global
warming is the most serious environmental problem in the world. People burn
fossil fuel and coal, which increases the concentration of Carbon Dioxide in
the atmosphere. The rate of rising has been rapid since 1800S because too many
industries were built up and polluted the air. Some other human activities such
as deforestation which significantly contributes to the climate change because
there are fewer plants to consume the Carbon Dioxides. When the sun’s short
wave radiation goes through the atmosphere and hits the Earth Surface, the
Earth consumes the short wave radiation and sends the long wave radiation out. Carbon
Dioxides in the atmosphere form a wall to stop most of radiation going out. It
reflects the radiation back to the Earth. Much heart from the radiation is
trapped in the Earth and the global temperature rises up. This “greenhouse
effect” is the reason why the climate changed.
