I 04/19/2010 Global warming Global warming is the increase of the temperature around the World .The blue Planet as people used to call the Earth is seriously endangered the past two decades and probably the years to come. The issue of global warming is caused by many factors and its consequences are monstrous. Among the eight planets, Earth is the only place where life is favorable and prospering due to the composition of its atmosphere and the water it carries. Scientists are really concerned about the increase of the average temperature around our Globe for reasons that are important to be known by each and every one of us. Global warming is mainly caused by greenhouse gases such as Carbone dioxides, methane, and ozone, to mention but few. They are the emanation of factories, transportation means, agriculture, and so on and so forth. These gases form a layer around the World and trap the solar heat. As a matter of fact, that heat which is in a form of infra red increases the temperature around the Globe. Therefore, the consequences are tremendous and ravaging for the entire World. From the melting of the glaciers, drought to the extinction of bears and penguins, the effects are uncountable. As a further effect of global warming, diseases like malaria are returning into area where they have been extinguished earlier. To sum it up, Global warming is a serious case to the extent that if a global awareness is not given to it, the human race would disappear on day. Industrialized countries should abide by the rules and regulations such as Kyoto and Copenhagen commitments.
