These days we hear the term “Climate Change” more than ever before. This issue is a world wide phenomenon and the term “Climate Change” is indeed a uncomplicated phrase for such a complex subject. These words are more complex than we can understand and that is why we have to define these words in today’s context to understand it. In the dictionary of researchers and scientists, climate modification as a term is no longer in use. The reason for this is that we have come to understand the result of the changes we make to our environment will ultimately rise the temperature in many places around the world, and at the same time will also decrease the temperature in a few parts of the world. This creates an imbalance in the climate, which in turn leads us to the phrase, “Climate Change.”
When wondering about the effects of this issue, the phrase you know as climate modification is actually referred to as the phenomenon known as climate change. There fore with all the statistics we have at present, we can absolutely conclude that the world is warming with the temperatures rising faster than before.
This issue is a world wide problem with numerous natural disasters starting to happen almost daily. The universal awareness of this problem is almost unknown. For a better understanding of the issues associated with Global warming, we need a simple meaning for this issue in relationship to the temperature increase of the planet. This description needs to be the one that brings us to the core of this problem without compromising it. Now, the easiest and most accurate description is that climate change is the result greenhouse gases have on the planet’s overall climate. Greenhouse gases are mostly made up of carbon dioxide and methane, but is not restricted to these two.
When learning more about global warming, we need to be aware of a few important facts related with it. First of all climate change is both a natural and a man made phenomena. Greenhouse gases are a natural part of planet earth and it’s life and would still be here if man wasn’t. Actually, greenhouses gases are a very important part in the survival of life on this planet. As a result of the existence of the greenhouse gases, the temperature on this planet averages about 59 degrees. Now this issue, which is due to the man made greenhouse gases, causes an over abundance of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
This is the problem that we face now.
These gases are like a thermal blanket. The more greenhouse gases that are released into the atmosphere, the thicker the blanket and the less heat that leaves the earth. For almost the last century, the amount of these gases being released into the atmosphere is staggering and thus forming a thicker blanket.
Then again, we are cutting down our forests at a alarming rate and these forests collect and absorb these greenhouse gases. This is a double negative and we are starting to see the affects.
The temperature of our planet is on the raise and thus is the beginning of “Climate Change”.
