What is Global Warming?

Global warming is when the earth heats up (the

temperature rises). It happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earths atmosphere, which increases the temperature. This hurts many people, animals, and plants. Many cannot take the change, so they die.

Main cause
Raise in normal temperature Imbalance in greenhouse effect

The Suns energy passes through the cars windshield.

This energy (heat) is trapped inside the car and cannot pass back through the windshield, causing the inside of the car to warm up.

Global Warming - Effects

Geographical effects Climate change Wildlife humans

23% smaller than previous minimum; 39% smaller than average Ice 53% thinner in region of North Pole between 2001 and 2007 (NOAA Report Card 2008) Ice only 3 feet thick in most locations (NOAA FAQ, 2007 In September 2007 an area 7 the size of Florida (69,000 square miles) melted in six days (NSIDC 2007) Humpback whales spotted in Arctic Ocean for first time in 2007

Climate Change
Important factor affected as a result of global

warming Climate change happens when there is a change in

Suns output Earths orbit Drifting continents Volcanic eruptions Greenhouse gases

Energy Conservation
It is one of the most important task that should be considered Using alternate sources of energy in daily life is better way to conserve energy

Plastic bags and cups do not decompose so harmful to environment

Paper bags and cups are eco friendly and easily decomposable

Reduce the usage of cars for short distances

Walk /use cycles for short distances

Conserve electricity! DO NOT leave appliances on standby

Turn off the lights when you leave.

Avoid turning up the air conditioner. Instead dress lightly or use a fan.

Keep rooms cool by closing the blinds, shades, or curtains.

REUSE
Paper can be reused for various purposes Covers and boxes which comes with products can be used for decorative purposes Plastic bags can be used for carrying small things

What Can Be Recycled?

Paper Items
Paper Cardboard Envelopes Phone Books Post-it Notes Magazine

Bottles and Cans

Cans Plastic Bottles Glass Bottles Aluminum Foil Yogurt and Cottage Cheese containers
