Climate Change

Introduction

Climate Change seemed to be a common term as perhaps everyone even a ten year old kid may have an idea of what is it . However , Climate change that scientists are talking and worries is certainly different from the concept that many people have . Climate differs from weather and it changes naturally . The Climate Change referred in this is the global warming of weather temperature due to the Greenhouse effect because of increased green house concentrations in the atmosphere . The global climate change according to Eileen and Vicki

Arroyo Cocharan is largely a result of human activities

This sees the collective involvement effort of nation as significant factor in reducing the impact and continued danger of global warming to earth

Climate Change and the Global Warming

In the report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC ) a joint project of The World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Environment Program , it cited that the surfaces of the land warm faster than the ocean . The IPCC explained that in for our planet not to be burned by the light energy there is a need of a balance between the sunlight energy and infrared heat energy . The infrared heat energy is the warm temperature generated by the warming of the land surface , and it has to be reflected outside of the earth 's atmosphere (Gad-el-Hak , 2002 ,

. 212 . However , man- made , and other natural gases in the atmosphere , such as water vapor , carbon dioxide , and ozone trapped the infrared heat energy causing trouble for this harmful energy getting out to space (Roberts Ingram , 2001 ,

. 43 . This is a natural process and is known as the greenhouse effect . Thus , the more carbon dioxide and other man made gases are emitted in to the atmosphere the more it causes global warming that result to climate change

The gradual Impact of Global Warming

According to the article published by the Global Climate Change entitled What do we Know about Global Climate Change , the evident effect of global warming is that high temperature will melt frozen water , land based ice sheets and glaciers . Scientist fears melting land-based ice will contribute to the rise of sea level that will cause flooding and sinking of many parts of the world . Bette Hileman and C N Washington cited that mountain glaciers elsewhere in the world are receding , and snow covering land areas , are now beginning to melt down . Since the 1900 , records show that sea levels have risen 10 to 20 centimeters Furthermore , the increase of global warming have lead to intense warm climate that are causing severe droughts in Asia and Africa and even in some parts of Europe and the United States (Kumar , Sivakumar , Ndiang 'ui 2007 ,

. 241 . Among the seriously damaging weather brought by climate change , which is caused global by warming is the El Niso events and the periodic warming of the tropical pacific that affects weather patterns around the world (Norwine , J , Giardino , J , Krishnamurthy...
