About Global Warming . . . !


What is Global Warming ?




Written by: Pangestu Cahyo


Global Warming is defined as the increase of the average temperature on Earth. We have to know how much CO2, methane, nitrous oxide, aerosols - that's dust and smoke - are going to be there, because that changes what we call the forcing the pressures on the climate system - to be warmer or colder. Practically our earth progressively heat. As the Earth is getting hotter, disasters like hurricanes, droughts and floods are getting more frequent. Over the last 100 years, the average temperature of the air near the Earth’s surface has risen a little less than 1° Celsius. This matter is caused by damage of atmosphere. If holey atmosphere so heat of sun will be direct step into earth without filtered by atmosphere. Therefore, earth become hotter. The damage of atmosphere caused from contamination of air by factory and vehicle, deforestation, usage of gas of CFC, etc.

That effect call “green house gasses effect”. Green house gasses produced by the usage of fossil fuels, natural oils, natural gasses that used in every human activity.

Increasing global temperatures will cause sea level to raise, liquefaction of ice in North Pole and South Pole and expected to increase the intensity of extreme weather event. If this continues happened, will enable in 100 year later; then isles will lose and earth will sink. Earth will always flare up every moment, like: droughts, floods, mount erupt, hurricane, thunder in rain, and storm.


* Effect of Global Warming


Many scientist use climate models to predict the effect of global warming, and they already make a prediction about weather, sea level, beach, agriculture, animal life and healthy. All of the change absolutely will change the way we live.

The effect of global warming, such as:

1. Weather

Many scientists predict during the global warming on the Northern Hemisphere, will hotter than other place on the earth. That make Ice Mountain melt and many land will disappear. Ice on the North Pole will decrease and many areas that usually have snow won't happen anymore. Temperature in the winter and night will increase. Before that all happened, will many disaster. The disaster will often happened though people have earned to forecast it. Disaster which possibly will happened for example: floods, dryness, long drought, thunder in rain, cyclone, and storm.

Atmosphere which more broken also will make foreign object of space often to fall.

2. Sea Level

Hot of earth will make ices mounts, ices island, North Pole and molten South Pole melting. sea level will raise following the growth of global warming. Melting ice is the main causes of the raising sea level, especially on Greenland Island. In 20th century the sea level have increase 10 - 25 cm. scientist predict sea level will increase 9 - 88 cm in 21st century. And on 2100 the earth will sink. Now we must have to prevent it.

The change of sea level will change the beach life. 100 cm upraising sea level will make 6 % of Netherlands land disappear, 35 % in Jakarta, Indonesia and 17.5 % in Bangladesh. This also makes a very big flood everywhere. Now that all have will become fact. so we have to take care of earth which have old.

3. Animal and Plants

When the temperature rise too high many plant will die. Soil will lose much water and summer will happen longer than before. Happened to fail crop [in] agriculture.

Animal will change its life when many plants die. Many animals will be barren and animal will be totally disappeared. Animal will go down to town because plants die. They also will lose their life area when human need place lo life because land is become smaller. Some species will die because they can't life on the hot condition. This condition also will make the human disturb. People also will be killed [by] because savageness of disease and animal of that animal.

4. Human healthy

In hot condition people will die because hot and stress. Many new disease pop out. Flimsy oxygen because heat will make CO2 increase, disease bacterium multiply and [is] people would infected it. Disease will be difficult healed because there is no its drug. Much disease in topic areas will happen wildly, especially mosquitoes. Right now 45 % people in one area where they life killed by mosquitoes and it will increase until 60 % if temperature getting hotter.

Scientists also have checked incoming disease from space. That disease not yet catching until people on the earth but have is catching astronauts which have to space.


* Prevent Global Warming


  1. Get Educated

Now study about Global Warming, informing one who [do] not know

  1. Recycle More

Recycle something which can used again as paper, plastic, metal, etc.

  1. Plan The Tree

Let's say crop as godsend because sipping CO2 and release O2. Don't let hairless forest. Plant the hairless forest will very is assisting. Plant the tree around your house.

  1. Do not Smoke in any place.

Remain to not smoke for the things not smoke, and lessen to smoke for smoker.

  1. Avoid Dangerous Good

Avoid usage of pregnant dangerous goods of CFC, like spray, styrefoam.

  1. Searching of Energy

Alternative energy can meet anywhere. Alternative energy like wind, sun, plant, animal, etc

  1. Effective Vehicles

Better travel with bicycle, train, or walking. Friendly vehicle to environment will lessen Global Warming. So using vehicle 4 piston step ( 4 takt ).

  1. Effective Fuel

Fossil fuel will quicken Global Warming. Therefore, wear friendly fuel [of] environment.

  1. Buy Minimally Packaged Goods

Better packer of paper or glass than plastic which is difficult to be recycled. Bring plastic alone when going shopping. That all will lessen process of Global Warming.

  1. Hold principle.

Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.

Don't take any except picture, don't leave any except footstep, don't kill any except time.


* Closing

Global Warming is happen because our activities and it will make us drying at the future so we must take an action to prevent it. I hope this report can make people know cause, effect and way of overcoming Global Warming.. Just do a simple thing, firstly for you then do more for your environment.

Stop producing pollutions from your car, garbage, and many more. Educated yourself and other so you can act as a team to prevent it.

Global Warming not just a weather event, it is a disaster that come slowly but sure if we do not change the way we life.

So just remember to Reduce, Reuse, and And Recycle.
