- 2. Global warming is the warming of the earth through carbon dioxide (CO2) being pumped into the atmosphere from tailpipes and smokestacks. Then the gases trap heat like the glass in a greenhouse. This is where the term the “greenhouse effect” came from. What Is Global Warming?
- 7. What’s Happening • Temperatures are increasing • Sea levels are rising • Sea ice is melting • Forest fire • Precipitation patterns are changing • Oceans are acidifying
- 8. What Will Happen •Increase Earth's average temperature •Influence the patterns and amounts of precipitation •Reduce ice and snow cover, as well as permafrost •Raise sea level •Increase the acidity of the oceans •Increase the frequency, intensity, and/or duration of extreme events •Shift ecosystem characteristics •Increase threats to human health
- 9. How to Stop Global Warming •Go Solar • Buy Energy-Efficient Appliances •Use Clean Fuel • Replace Filters on Air Conditioner and Furnace •Reduce Fossil Fuel Use. •Conserve Water.
- 10. Go green, plant more tree
- 11. Conclusion Global warming is affecting plants, animals, humans and the earth. We need to learn how to conserve our use of fossil fuels to minimize carbon dioxide production. This will slow down the effects of global warming.
