Global Warming 10V035 Felipe Kitano One of the greatest crisis that faced humans and the planet

Earth is global warming which means the increase of Earths temperature over the natural levels. The main cause of this crisis is human activities, which will have long-term consequences for the planet. Human activities have been affecting on the Earth by direct or indirect ways for many years and the crisis has taking place in the last decades due to the progress in the industrial and agricultural sectors. Id like to explain the three main human activities that cause global warming and their effects; namely, the burning of fossil fuel, deforestation and population. To start with, the fossil fuel is considered one of the most dangerous factors that affect on global warming by direct way. Although, fossil fuel contributes to saving different forms of energy such as oil, coal, and natural gas, is contains high percentage of carbon dioxide emissions which have been causing much of the effects on Earth surface because the increase of carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere prevent much of heat from radiating back out, and this process called greenhouse. One of the effects of greenhouse is that the raise in temperature and that led to melt ice especially the ice on the land; for example, Greenland has been melting and doing so more than twice as fast and that led to raise sea levels. Also, when the ocean gets warmer that cause stronger storms one of them is Hurricane Katrina, 2005. Besides, raise the sea temperature reduce the numbers of coral reefs which are regarded an important resource food for other animals. In addition, another main cause to the global warming is the deforestation, which means cutting of the trees. Humans have been removing much of forests for some reasons such as, expanding cities or to get wood as another resource of energy. These practices have contributed to raise temperatures because trees help to conservation of the ecosystem by rise the percentage of carbon dioxide in atmosphere. Moreover, the drought one of the main effects that have led to climate changes especially on the land and then led to extinct many species of animals in the worldwide.

Furthermore, the population is among the factors that cause global warming by indirect ways. One of the most important facts is that it takes ten thousands generations to reach two billions and then one human life timehours- it goes from two billions to nine billions. The number of population has been increased dramatically and that means more pressure on the Earth especially on developed nation, also another effect that came from population is that the food and water demands as well as the needing to the natural resources. Consequently, all of that have led to dangerous problems such as disruption of the ecosystem, widespread drought and the shortage in the resources; for instance, when people consume the agricultural products quickly and randomly that cause increase in carbon dioxide and then raise the level of greenhouse in atmosphere once again. In conclusion, global warming is expected to cause further effects in future. For example, the amount of carbon dioxide will be double before 2100. Also, another forecast is that rises in ocean level a further 9 to 88 cm by the year 2100. Besides, the projected concentration after 50 more years of unrestricted fossil fuel burning temperature will be more nearly 700 Fahrenheit. Furthermore, scientists have mentioned to other effects that could be happen in the future such as, infectious disease, disruption of ecosystem, air pollution and violent weather. As a result, global warming is doing to destroy the Earth unless governments and people take quick to solve the crisis.
