Task 2 - Global Warming

In this article, I'm going to write about the global warming causes. This problem is really a very big and worldwide problem. "Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and the oceans since the mid-twentieth century and its projected continuation"(Global warming, Wikipedia).

There are several causes of global warming. The first and biggest cause is the Carbon Dioxide . It can come from the Power Plants( from the burning of fossil fuels for the purpose of electricity generation), cars, airplanes and building structures. The second cause is the methane." According to the IPCC, methane is more than 20 times as effective as CO2 at trapping heat in the atmosphere" (Causes of Global Warming, EcoBridge). Moreover, there are many things causing the global warming.

The global warming is a very big serious problem. Many things are caused by the global warming such as: ice is melting worldwide, sea level rise became faster, warmer waters and more hurricanes.

    You are right about the methane and the Co2 that is caused by factories cars and other things around the world and hopefully i wish the government participates within stopping this problem . People will face worst problems in future time if this problem isnt solved as soon as possible and this may be solved only if all countries copporate togther to do it.
