-OUR EARTH NEEDS US
Definition
 Global warming usually means a fast, unnatural
 increase in overall temperature of earth that is
 enough to cause the expected climate conditions to
 change rapidly.
Greenhouse Effect
Causes for Global Warming
Rise in CO2 emission.
Rise in other green house gases, like methane, Water
 vapor.
Deforestation- burning and cutting millions of acres of trees each
  year, it is responsible for 20-25 per cent of all carbon emissions.
Energy use and production- More than 80% of the world-
  wide energy demand is currently supplied by the fossil fuels coal, oil
  or gas.
The true cause of global warming is our
  thoughtless attitude towords Nature.
Carbon Dioxide
Relation between Temperature
and CO2




 Today's 370 parts per million of CO2 is the greatest in 20 million years --
 and it is still going up.
Global warming
A Pentagan Report points to possible "catastrophic droughts, famines and riots,
with skirmishes over food and water, mass migration and economic disruption.
Starvation and disease will decrease population size".
The Stern Report says "climate change will affect the basic elements of life (water,
food production, health and the environment). Hundreds of millions of people could
be affected by coastal flooding".
Impact of Global Warming
Ice Under Fire: Arctic
40% REDUCED IN 40 YEARS
NEXT 30 YEARS IT WILL BE
 COMPLETELY GONE IN
 SUMMER TIME.
First, it will raise sea levels.
Second, Ice caps are white, and reflect sunlight,
 much of which is reflected back into space, further
 cooling Earth.
Third, melting ice caps will throw the global
 ecosystem out of balance. The ice caps are fresh
 water, and when they melt they will desalinate the
 ocean, or in plain English - make it less salty.
Fourth, temperature rises and changing landscapes
 in the arctic circle will endanger several species of
 animals. Only the most adaptable will survive.
POLAR BEARS DROWNED
 SWIMMING LONG
 DISTANCES.
ANTARCTICA- LARGEST ICE SHELVES IN THE
  WORLD.


About 98% of Antarctica is covered
by ice, which averages at least 1.6
kilometres (1.0 mi) in thickness.

Permafrost
Permafrost is a solid structure of
frozen soil, extending to depths of
2.200 feet in some areas of the arctic
and subarctic regions, containing
grasses, roots, sticks, much of it
dating back to 30,000 years.
The Larsen B sector collapsed and broke up, 3,250 km² of ice 220 m thick
disintegrated in just 35 DAYS. "hotspot of global warming."
GREENLAND MELTING

The rate of ice-mass loss from an island in
Greenland increased by 250 percent
during a period spanning May 2004 to
April 2006 relative to the period from April
2002 to April 2004,a study concludes.

IF ENTIRE GREENLAND OR WEST
ANTARCTICA MELTS SEA LEVEL RISE 20 
FEET Worldwide!

IF GLOBAL WARMING CONTINUES AT THIS
 RATE RIVER GANGA WILL BECOME SEASONAL
 IN 35 YEARS!!!
Warming Winds, Rising Tides:
Oceans
 Coral reefs are probably
  the most complex
  ecosystems on the planet,
  home to hundreds of
  thousands of species.
 High water temperatures
  caused coral bleaching and
  subsequent death or
  adverse change to sixteen
  percent of world reefs
  overall and up to 46
  percent in parts of the
  Indian Ocean.
 Aquatic Life Dependent
  On Them are Dying.
OCEAN TEMPERATURE RISE IMPACTS:
 STRONGER STORMS, TORNADOES, HURRICANS
 HURRICANE KATRINA –AUGUST 29,2005
 INCREASE IN PRECIPITATION – RELOCATED.
 MUMBAI FLOODS, 26 JULY 2005
   37 inches of rain in 24 hrs
   Water levels reached 7 ft.
  MORE WATER EVAPORATION IN OCEAN, LANDS
  SUCKED UP- SEVER DROUGHTS
 WIND AND WATER CYCLES CHANGE
Pushing the Boundaries of Life:
Temperate Zone
 "We are running into a really
  serious loss of biodiversity."

 2/3 of butterfly species with long
  observational records had shifted
  northward by from 22 to 150
  miles, consistent with
  temperature increases in Europe.
SOLUTIONS
The Most Important Things You Can Do about
 Rapid Climate Change:
1. Understand the Problem, its causes
 2. Do Something Today to Reduce Greenhouse
 Gas Emissions, find solutions.
Its time to ACT.
"In my view, climate change is the most severe
 problem that we are facing today -- more serious
 even than the threat of terrorism."
                  - David A. King, Chief Scientific Advisor to the British Government
