C L I M A T E C H A N G E


The atmosphere is formed for a lot of gases. The gases that are abundant in the atmosphere are nitrogen and oxygen. The rest of the gases are called “of greenhouse”, such as the carbon dioxin, the methane…
The gases of greenhouse are very important for the life. When the energy of the sun arrived to the earth, such as light and heat, these gases make that a little part of the energy arrived to the earth, and it send the rest to the space. These gases are called of greenhouse and help us with the temperature; because it make that the temperature is good for the life. But, with the temps, the human activities, such as the industry, the automobile…, have provoked that there is an increase of these gases. For this reason the temperature of the earth has increased and it is called “the Climate Change”.

The climate change is a change that the earth is experimenting. This is provoking a lot of consequences:

The temperature of the earth will increase.

There will be more heat wave.

The droughts and floods will be stronger than now and there will be more hurricanes.

There will be more rainfall, but it will rain few days and more heavily.

The North/ South Pole, with the heat, they are starting to thaw and it can provoke an increase of the sea’s level. And many coastal cities would be under water.

Many animals’ specie will wipe out.

But, everything isn’t lost yet. Now we can solve it. Everybody should begin to use renewable energy, not use cars so much, and not waste energy and water… Use Energy Saving Light Bulbs. We can increase the natural places, such as plant a tree, recycle…
But the most important is: “be conscious of our activities”, We think that these activities are very important for our life, but it is damaging the earth. We are damaging it.

My opinion: I have decided to make this blog about this matter because I consider it very important and we should start to do something to prevent that this situation can be worse in the future.
