Topic > A Solution to Global Warming - 1050

Humans are the most advanced species on earth. Our ancestors' ability to think outside the box is why humans are the most dominant species. Once upon a time, humans were equal to wild animals. The daily task of humans in the past was to hunt, eat and survive. At present, the life of human beings is more convenient thanks to all the inventions such as cars and air conditioners. These inventions have made our lives easier but have also helped cause global warming. The emission of carbon dioxide by these machines into the atmosphere causes global warming. Global warming, defined by the Oxford dictionary, is a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the Earth's atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons and other pollutants (“Definition of global…”). There are several creative ideas to stop global warming, and some of them promise, for example, to save money while protecting the environment. Planting and protecting trees is a popular attempt, and it sounds great on paper, this solution works well and is beneficial for people and the environment. Global warming is a serious problem with two main effects which are rising sea levels and degradation of wildlife. Sea level rise is affecting the entire landmass of the earth. According to NASA, the polar ice cap is melting at an alarming rate of 9% per decade. Arctic ice thickness has decreased by 40% since the 1960s (Oskin). The amount of water is more than that of land on our planet. If global warming continues at this rate, there will soon be no soil left on earth. Land animals will be exterminated from the earth if glo...... middle of paper ......ot limited makes this the best solution to global warming. In conclusion, global warming is a slow and gradual process that is affecting our lives day by day. Some consider it a myth, but now everyone can see and feel climate change every year. Humans are the main cause of global warming, so it is our responsibility to minimize it. Many environmentalists and nature protection organizations such as NRDC (Natural Resource Defense Council) have done various research on global warming and have come up with many ideas to prevent it. There are several creative ideas to stop global warming, and some of them promise, for example, to save money while protecting the environment. Planting and protecting trees is a popular attempt and looks great on paper, this solution works well and is beneficial for people and the environment.
