Global Warming affects us very much in a very bad and unhealthy way. Global warming is the continued increased in near- surface air of the Earth’s average temperature since the mid of the twentieth century. The global warming effects concern both human life forms and our environment. Those effects are said to be irreversible. Global warming greatly affect and cause our recent climate changes such as the sea level rising, retreat of glacier, the shrinkage of Arctic and agriculture altered patterns that can already be observed today. Other predictions are regional effects such as extreme weather disturbances, tropical diseases growth, timing changes in ecosystems seasonal patterns and severe economic impact that can be experienced in the future.
Humans are concluded the best possible reason for global warming so it is up to us humans to think and do better ways to reduce and minimize global warming. There are many things that we can do to save our planet and minimize global warming. We can decrease the amount of energy wasted and increase the amount of greenhouse gases produced. We can simply do it in our day to day activities. What we need is patience as well as diligence. Here are some of the ways we can contribute in minimizing global warming: If you own a car, try to think of some possible alternate transportation source instead of driving your car. If ever, you can always walk or ride a bike that can benefit you and our environment too. Maintain your car properly if you must use it daily and be sure it is always in good working condition. Make sure that you change your oil with synthetics, your tire pressure is monitored and only use your heat or car air-conditioning when you just really need; At home, keep track of your energy consumption. When you are not using some of your household items or appliances, simply unplug them of just turn off the power plugs where they are connected because some appliances that appear to be off can be running; the use of compact fluorescent lamp instead of the standard incandescent light bulbs is very good too. You can have your electricity bill go down as well as help minimize global warming. Then, you can also start reusing and recycling of your plastic bags and containers as well as buy products that are recycled and can be recycled if possible; The best is plant trees or have gardens with plenty of plants because trees and plants produce oxygen into the atmosphere. You can also grow your own vegetables and fruits and have your own produce and enjoy eating healthy foods; and also you must support green movements and businesses that are truthfully committed to our Mother Earth.
There are still many things we can think of and can be helpful for our environment. Every little thing helps and if every one of us does those little things it can add up and make a very big difference.
