Climate Change is the abnormal change in the weather conditions which causes serious effects in human lives. It can be a change in the distribution of weather events around the world. That is over heat or over rain which is not normal. The Climate Change is largely related to the Global Warming. Global warming gets highly increased because of the serious climate changes.

 

General Facts of Climate Change

The climate in the world has been changing day by day mainly due to human activities like fossil fuel burning, usage of heavy plastics, industrial wastes, e-wastes, change in the land usage and pesticides used with agricultural lands. While burning the fossil fuels for electricity and other industrial processing, excessive amount of carbon-dioxide (CO2). The liberated CO2 covers the planet as a blanket which absorbs large amount of heat and keeps the planet warm.

The second major reason is the usage of plastics and the e-wastes. Wide usage of plastics can change the conditions of the soil, which in turn leads to lot of changes in the climate. E-wastes like electrical and electronic waste products will also leads to serious climate change effects.

 

Physical &Social Impacts of Climate Change:

Due to climate change lot of ill effects can be caused to the human lives. The average land and sea temperature can be increases to a large extent. There is an increase in floods, droughts, wildfires, earth quakes and various other measures. As a result of global warming the glaciers gets melting which will leads to severe flooding. The ice and the snow in the north and the south poles is melting and breaking continuously.

Agriculture is highly affected by the droughts which leads to scarcity of food supply. People loss their life and property by hurricanes and floods. New diseases arriving day by day and largely spoil the human life.

Greenhouse Effects on Climate Change:

 

The natural warming process of the earth is called as Greenhouse Effect. The heat energy reaches the earth from the sun, some of the heat energy is absorbed by the earth and the remaining reflected back to the space. This is the normal process. But by the global warming the greenhouse gases forms a blanket around the earth which does not allow the heat to the space. This excess heat makes the earth to get warm to a great extent. Some of the greenhouse gases are:

1. Carbon-dioxide (CO2)

2. Methane (CH4)

3. Nitrous Oxide (N2O)

The emissions which is generated during the combustion or decomposition of bio-materials is called as Bio-genital greenhouse gas emissions. This emission also include the sources like:

1. Utilizing forest and agricultural products for energy

2. Waste water treatment

3. Livestock management

4. Fermentation process for producing ethanol.

The carbon-dioxide is emitted to the earth by normal human processes. This cannot be avoidable but it should be controlled in a regular manner. But the flourinated gases like methane and ethanol are emitted only by the human activities like industrialization, deforestation and pollution. So it is the duty to every citizen to be aware of these effects and try to avoid such emissions.

Part 4 – Professor Bob Carter examines examples of the scientific data being ignored over popularist views about CO2 causing climate change and Global warming. Inconvenient Truth author Al Gore would find his presentation contradicted by this presentation? Will kyoto`s greenhouse reduction goals be in vain?
