GLOBAL WARMING

AGORA VAMOS APRENDER UM POUCO MAIS SOBRE ESTE TEMA:

Global warming, a recent warming of the Earth, is believe to be the result of increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Because of it the planet is heating up, the climate is changing, sea levels are rising, forests are drying, glaciers are melting and wildlife is fighting to survive. Lets learn about global warming and what is causing it! Greenhouse effect:
The greenhouse effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth experiences because certain gases in atmosphere (water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane, for example) trap energy from the sun. It is called greenhouse effect because the sun warms the Earth in the same way as it warms the plants inside a greenhouse. Without these gases, heat would escape back into space and Earths average temperature would be about 60 F colder. Because of how they warm our world, these gases are referred to as greenhouse gases. The greenhouse effect is important. Without the greenhouse effect, the Earth would not be warm enough for humans to live. But if the greenhouse effect becomes stronger, it could make The Earth warmer than usual. Even a little extra warming may cause problems for humans, plants, and animals.

Global warming
Global warming refers to an average increase in the Earths temperature, which in turn causes changes in climate. A warmer Earth may lead to changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. When scientists talk about the issue of climate change, their concern is about global warming caused by human activities.
