GLOBAL WARMING Global warming is a big issue of the atmosphere on the earth which cause continuous rise in the surface temperature of the Earth. It has been estimated that in next 50 or 100 year the temperature of earth would be increased to a great level which would create big problem of living on earth. The highly known and most basic cause of increasing the Earth’s temperature is continuous rise in the atmospheric carbon dioxide. Rise in the carbon dioxide level is the use fossil fuels like

place. We have experienced the Earth’s temperature rising. Global warming is the name of the phenomenon that has taken place over approximately the past 133 years, and according to NASA, it is an un-debated fact that the average temperature on Earth has increased one and a half degrees over this time period (NASA). There is a wide range of thoughts and opinions on the relatively recent issue of global warming. To some people, global warming is out of our hands. Therefore, it is a non-issue. Others

human rights, health and environmental protection have expanded considerably in the past several decades. In response, the international community has created a vast array of international legal instruments, specialized organs, and agencies at the global and regional levels to respond to identified problems in each of the three areas. Often these have seemed to develop in isolation from one another. Yet the links between human rights, health and environmental protection were apparent at least from

dioxide formed a blanket-like layer that prevents effective emission of radiations back into the space. When such a layer is formed, there is too much heat on the planet, hence global warming. The discussion herein looks at some of the causes, challenges, impacts and possible solutions to the problem. Causes Global warming is the general increase in the temperatures in the planet due to the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the ozone layer. With ever increasing industrialization, greenhouse gases

Week 5 Global Warming C02 and You Bonita Jones-Bey 1. Is your emission higher than average US emission? By how much. See report 2. What steps will you be taking to reduce your emission? We currently use one vehicle more than the other one. The one with the better ass mileage of 38 mpg. 3. What needs to be done to increase sinks and reduce sources? Change in Uses of Land Increasing carbon storage by using land differently or maintaining carbon storage by avoiding land degradation. • Encouraging

has predicted that the temperature will rise 3-10 degrees Fahrenheit by the century’s end. Yet we are still burning coal and oil the two of the world’s most top reasons why global warming is happening. If we do not do anything about it what we call as our today we will be saying was our planet yesterday. If global warming continues and temperatures continue to rise then it will be enough to have the polar caps all but melted. If this happens majority of Americas border will be under water including
