Global Warming

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 earth’s atmosphere, which increases the temperature.  This hurts many people, animals, and plants.  Many cannot take the change, so they die.

What is the greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect is when the temperature rises because the sun’s heat and light is trapped in the earth’s atmosphere. As a result, the temperature rises.

Although the greenhouse effect makes the earth able to have people living on it, if there gets to be too many gases, the earth can get unusually warmer, and many plants, animals, and people will die.  They would die because there would be less food.This would happen because the plants would not be able to take the heat.  This would cause us to have less food to eat, but it would also limit the food that animals have.  With less food, like grass, for the animals that we need to survive (like cows) we would even have less food.  Gradually, people, plants, and animals would all die of hunger.  

What are greenhouse gasses?

Greenhouse gasses are gasses are in the earth’s atmosphere that collect heat and light from the sun.  With too many greenhouse gasses in the air, the earth’s atmosphere will trap too much heat and the earth will get too hot.  As a result people, animals, and plants would die because the heat would be too strong. 

What is global warming doing to the environment?

Global warming is affecting many parts of the world. For example the ice of the poles melts and the sea level increases and cover low land and the plants and the animal die.

What do I think about this?
Obviosly this is an important problem. Many people think that this is a lie from de goverment but we can see the effects of these everywhere, one of the most notable problems are the strange weather during the seasons, on winter rains, on october it's too cold, the weather is crazy!
I think the things we do tying to stop this aren't very efficent, now I'm thinking what we could do.
Things that I do to stop the global warming:
- Recycle sheets of paper and plastic bottles
- Separate the rubbish
- Take short baths with not vey hot water

The Global warming is going to kill us! This are mi last words about this topic.
We'll lucky if we reach the 40 years old.
