Global warming effects

in #global6 years ago

I have to believe that our human race is resilient and we need to foster the rapid growth of sustainable energy for our ecosystem. We are living in an era that marks a pivotal point that will affect our existence on this planet. There is a major worldwide threat that is at our doorstep today and that is global warming. Studies by the scientific community are conclusive and are showing that we are not doing enough as a global team. We are producing more harmful greenhouse emissions which are affecting the climate cycle of our fragile ecosystem. We are emitting about 6 billion ton of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere, if we continue at this rate in 22 years we will accelerate it to 20 billion tons. There are many more excess gases that we produce and it is warming our planet's ecosystem and causing catastrophic weather disruption. Our major concern is the fact that our ice caps are thawing and melting rapidly. The melting glaciers produce sweet water which is diluting the salt water and affecting the thermohaline circulatory system in oceans currents. We are witnessing large glaciers breaking off and melting rapidly at a historic rate and rising sea levels. Eventually, the gulf stream belt will slow and shut down the natural flow of ocean currents. This creates a manmade apocalypse that will begin to spiral our planet in the ice age or as some call it snowball earth. Most of the European countries are already making changes to their environmental policies and lifestyle. We need to take the reigns by setting the example to the world and help other nations such as India, China, and Africa follow our lead. Many climatologists have been warning us about this problem for decades, we have ignored their plea for change. We need to be responsible and create a greater call to action to preserve our existence of humanity on our planet.
