Global Warming



There is a serious issue coming up in our earth, which we all should be aware of and do something from everyone's end. This is a global responsibility and it is predicted that the worst affected would be the poorest, mostly from under-developed and developing countries.

Direct manifestations of a widespread and long-term trend toward warmer global temperatures:

1) Heat waves and periods of unusually warm weather
2) Ocean warming, sea-level rise and coastal flooding
3) Glaciers melting
4) Arctic and Antarctic warming


Events that foreshadow the types of impacts likely to become more frequent and widespread with continued warming:

1) Spreading disease
2) Earlier spring arrival
3) Plant and animal range shifts and population changes
4) Coral reef bleaching
5) Downpours, heavy snowfalls, and flooding
6) Droughts and fires
