Human Induced Global Warming

Ecology emphasizes the interaction of various life forms found on Earth Each organism depends on the other for its survival . Each life form has a distinct role and function within its ecosystem , a web of interrelationships including their physical environment . Humans , being the most advanced of the life forms , are an integral part of the web of life

Thriving human existence is made possible with stable average global temperature . From nomadic roaming , humans were able to find land and climate that

eventually permitted them to establish communities and eventually , organized societies . Since the 1800s , global temperature has been observed to increase variably from 0 .4 to 0 .8 degrees Celsius Satellite data shows that the troposphere is increasing in temperature (NASA , n .d

With continuously increasing increments in the shortest span of time scientists predict that by 2100 the average temperature will increase in increments from 1 .4 to 5 .8 degree Celsius (IPCC , 2001 . The Earth 's ecosystems may not adapt to the abrupt climate changes thus , in the attempt to curb its progression the Kyoto Protocol was created in 1997 The Kyoto Protocol recognizes that global warming is induced by human activity . It has since passed regulations to lessen , if not eradicate the emission of harmful substances that affect global warming

The likelihood of natural as well as man-made processes having the most impact on the rapid increase in average temperature remains to be debated . Natural processes that may affect the...
