Global Warming Awareness

At the Earth’s surface temperature has increased by about 1 degree Fahrenheit in the past century, with accelerated warming during the past two decades. There is new and stronger evidence that most of the warming over the past 50 years is due to human activities. Human activities have changed the chemical composition of the atmosphere through the accumulation of greenhouse gases-primarily carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. The heat-trapping property of these gases is undisputed, but there is uncertainty about exactly how the Earth’s climate responds to them.

Energy from the sun drives the Earth’s weather and climate, and heats the earth’s surface, in turn, the earth radiates energy back into space. Atmospheric greenhouse gases (water vapor, carbon dioxide and other gases) trap some of the outgoing energy, heat retention, as several glass panels in the greenhouse.

Without this natural “greenhouse effect, the temperature will be much lower than they are now, and life as we know today, would have been impossible. Instead, thanks to the Earth’s greenhouse gases, the average temperature is a more hospitable 60 ° F. Nevertheless, problems can arise when the atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases increases.

Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has increased by nearly 30%, methane concentrations more than doubled, and the concentration of nitric oxide increased by about 15%. These increases raise the heat-trapping capacity of the Earth’s atmosphere. Consequently, the surface temperature of the planet rises.

Fossil fuels burned to run cars and trucks, heat homes and businesses, and power factories are responsible for about 98% of the world’s carbon dioxide emissions, 24% of methane emissions, and 18% of nitrogen oxide emissions. The growth of agriculture, deforestation, landfills, industrial production, and production also contribute a significant proportion of emissions. All of this has sharply reduced life Earth.

In the search for efficient energy affects all countries in the world. Worldwide, a growing interest in developing clean, reliable alternative petroleum fuels. Many smart, safe and clean alternative sources of energy are available on the market.

People can easily install these clean energy sources to their homes as alternative energy sources to help reduce carbon dioxide emissions, as well as reduce their utility bills.

In the past year, people have come from alternative energy sources to run their cars in order to reduce the cost of petrol and gas, of course, to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

Please play your part for global warming. It is easy and at the same time, you can save money!
