Global warming is the long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth’s climate system. It is a major aspect of current climate change. Over the past 50 years, the average global temperature has been on the rise and has made quite a record. The rate keeps on accelerating. This situation has persisted for some time now and the effect has been noticeable from the north pole all the way to the south. Scholars have noted that since 1996, the global temperature has increased by more than 0.9 degrees Celsius. Dangerous and destructive effect this heat is causing glaciers to melt, sea levels to rise, cloud forests to dry out and much more.
The main cause of this heat is humans. Humans have triggered global warming by releasing heat-trapping gases. They have powered their modern lives on the expense of nature. Human activities, since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, have produced a 45% increase in CO2. “Plastic, as we know, is everywhere. It is in the waterways, in marine life, and sometimes in our food too. A new report claims that both plastic products and CO2 emissions are catalysts the induce global warming. Our planet is dying and if we don’t act now, I am afraid its going to be too late. We need to stop using plastic. We need to stop exhausting our nature and burning down our forest.
We need to stop using non degradable materials. We need to Reduce, reuse & recycle. Spread the awareness. Let’s get back what once was our bare minimum right to a safe and toxic-free environment.
