The Effects of Global Warming
The Global Warming became such a big issue that is an essential problem nowadays, and the effects of global warming are also big problems. Quite many people know what the effects of the global warming are. Melting of Greenland, the increase of seal levels, and the increase of air temperature are the main effects of the global warming.
First of all, the global warming is resulting on melting of Greenland. As the temperature goes up because the heat from the sun stays within the Earth, the ice in both North pole and South pole are melting down and so as is Greenland. This affects not only melting of iceberg, but also the land. This problem also leads to another problem, too.
In addition, as the icebergs melt down, the sea level also increases. Soon or later, this will be the most important issue because as the sea level goes up, the land is getting decreased. For example, Japan, one of the countries in Asia which is grouped of 4 islands, is going down. If the sea level increases rapidly, the speed of Japan going down will be much faster. The problem of increase of sea level is quite important because humans have to figure out a way to solve this problem. If this problem continues, the land will eventually be covered with ocean.
Lastly, the global warming also is resulting on the increase of air temperature. Since the Co2 level, known as carbon-dioxide gas, is getting higher and higher, the heat from the sun cannot go out of the earth and causes the increase of air temperature. Because of this problem, it leads to the melting of Greenland in which it leads to the increase of sea level. Because of this problem, the hot weather is continuing and is getting hotter and hotter each year. It also causes raining, snowing and hail storms on not profit season.
Overall, global warming has resulted on a lot of problems such as melting of Greenland, increase of sea level, and the increase of air temperature. Icebergs are melting on Greenland, the increase of sea level is resulting on the decrease of ground, and the increase of air temperature is resulting on hot weather and strange climate. Each of the problems is affecting many nations and humanity so badly. If these problems keep occurring continually, the earth will be ruined someday.
