Global climate change is an
instantaneous and significant issue that ought to be addressed by all inhabitants
multilaterally. Climate
change is a lasting change in the distribution of weather patterns over a time period varying
from decades to a million of years. It may be a modification in average weather
situations, or in the allocation of weather. Global climate change is
originated by factors such as oceanic processes, plate tectonics, variations in the solar radiation, volcanic explosions and human provoked
alterations of the natural world.
It is very important to get to know about the global climatic
change. The world must be aware of the problems it can cause. Today the world is facing issues related to global change. It
is a major threat to human beings. The leaders all around the
world have been in constant discussions and debate. These conferences are held so as to minimize
its effect on the earth. Noteworthy changes in the temperature are a part
of the outcome of global change. It is hence probable that the weather will
increase day by day. The weather will constantly become warmer due to this
global change. This increase may threaten the Antarctic ice to melt and flow
directly into the oceans which will raise the sea levels.
It must be understood that the global climatic
change is at a critical and serious level, if it is not controlled or if we
would not do anything worthy for this change than it can be said that a global
catastrophe is unavoidable. It can be easily observed that now frequent typhoon,
cyclones, storms and freak weather circumstances are already being felt in
different areas of the world. This will persist to demolish the lives and destroy
the homes and living. If people will not take care and control the climatic
situations by decreasing the use of such gases, which increases the global
warming than eventually the world, will face a huge threat. Thus, it is very
important for people to be aware of the global change so that such activities
must be adapted which will ensure that the climatic conditions of earth gets
better. Now it is the duty of every citizen to take care of the earth and stop
using such materials, which will increase global warming. (Ernest, 2011)
There are many possible effects of the climatic change. All the
possible predictions of global climate change are observed to be negative. This
change has up till now not shown any positive effects. The effects of climate include
rising of temperature and sea-levels, reduction of glaciers, changes in variability
and distribution of animals and plants, changing precipitation patterns, and
more intense heat waves are likely to deteriorate if the nations do not
decrease their greenhouse gases. The global challenge of climatic change represents
both security and a financial threat to the world. Regular heat waves are also
observed, which in combination with the hot temperatures affect the human
health. Some other drastic effects caused by global change of climate are the
rising of temperatures of large lakes, heavier rainfall that causes flooding
and extreme drought conditions. (NASA) Crops are being withered which also a
serious effect is caused by global warming. This
results in low productivity, which will ultimately result in food shortage.
Agriculture is expected to be susceptible to global warming. (Richard et al.,
1990) The ecosystems are constantly changing. Seawater is becoming more and
more acidic which threatens the marine life. (Sharon & Karen, 2002)
