What is GlobalWarming?
Global Warming is the increase of the Earth’s
temperature due to effect of greenhouse
gases, such as carbon dioxide from burning
fossil fuels or from deforestation, which trap
heat that would normally escape from Earth.

What causes Globalwarming?
greenhouse gases are responsible for global
warming. Some otherthings that causes it is
fossil fuels in cars, factories and electricity
production. The gas responsible for the most
global warming is carbon dioxide, also
known as CO2.

What are theeffects of global
warming?
Sea level rising:
Large volumes of melted ice which turns into water,
then flows down into streams, rivers, lakes and seas.
The result is rising sea and water levels, causing
floods and massive destruction to towns and cities
near the water.
Extinction:
The lives of many plants and animals will become
extinct. For example, the survival of polar bears and
penguins in icy regions are in danger, as they cannot
survive anywhere else. Other plants and animals in
hot areas will die if temperatures suddenly become
too cold for them.
5.
Floods and droughts
climatechange also causes water bodies to
dry out. There is also dryness that causes
droughts, bush fires and as a result, many
water and land animals will die
Extreme weather
Changing climate may also cause the
weather to become more extreme, be it
droughts or violent storms and heavy rain.
6.
What changes hasglobal
warming made to our Earth?
Day by day, as global warming continues, the world
gets hotter and hotter and ice melts. As the ice
melts, it causes sea levels to rise. Also, some of the
hottest years were in the last fourteen years. The
hottest of them all was in 2005. The weather in
different places has changed. Some animal habitats
are in danger. For example: polar bears.
7.
How can wehelp stop
global warming?
We can help stop global warming by
recycling recyclabe things. Eg. Bottles,
plastic bags, plastic containers, paper and so
on. We can also cut down on green house
gases and cut down less trees. If you do do
that, that will help the Earth
8.
What could happenif global
warming doesn’t stop?
If global warming doesn’t stop, there will be
more floods, shortage of natural resources,
habitats will be destroyed, and the world will
be more polluted.
