The cause of global warming is simple, we are producing more carbon dioxide then the earth can relies, the affect of this happening is now the earth is warming up. If the earth gets to warm the polar ice caps will melt and sea levels will rise. Also as the earth starts to rise in temperature disease will spread, and animals will die. There is a chance that we can stop this all from happening all we have to do is cut down on our electricity use, learn to car pool, and find better ways to create energy.
The main ice covered landmass is Antarctica at the South Pole, with about 90 percent of the world's ice and 70 percent of its fresh water. Antarctica is covered with ice an average 7,000 feet thick. If all of the Antarctic ice melted, sea levels around the world would rise about 200 feet. The effect of the oceans raising an average of 200 world wide would devastating to man kind. All of the cities around the world such as New York Boston, and San Francisco all would be under water and lions of people would be without homes and jobs. Also if global warming gets worse people will not be the only thing that gets affected by global warming.
In some cases it is too late for some species such as 70 species of frogs, mostly mountain-dwellers that had nowhere to go to escape the creeping heat, have gone extinct because of climate change. It also reports that between 100 and 200 other cold-dependent animal species, such as penguins and polar bears are in deep trouble
. Also Climate change affects the occurrence and spread of disease by impacting the population size and range of hosts and pathogens, the length of the transmission season, and the timing and intensity of outbreaks. If this would happen and dieses would spread millions more people would die, from dieses such as malaria.
Even if global warming is bad and is already affecting our world there is still a chance that we can stop global warming. For example we can use alternative energies such as win and water power. Also we can find better ways to fuel our cars, or have our cars get better gas mileage. I think that if we all work together we can stop global warming in its tracks.
Overall, I feel that the cause for global warming is our fault and that effect will be terrible for all of man kind. I also feel that if we all work together that we can stop global warming and we will not have to suffer the consequences. I think that if we do not do something soon we will loose many more species of animals and also many more people will be homes less and diseases will spread.
