Humans are the major cause of Global Warming

There is no denying too much of anything can turn something bad. The same is relevant for our environment today with the over production in C02.The constant increase in concentration of greenhouse gases causes Earth climate to overheat as technology and population increases in production. This causes areas to experience extreme weather events such as hurricanes, tornadoes and wildfires for example. The radical change in climate will also cause sea levels to rise. This will create a population disposition, property damage, and degrade the ecosystems and natural resources. Many have made accusations that the heating of earth is natural, which is true however, human activity has contributed a tremendous amount of pollution that has contaminated the natural production of greenhouse gases. If this carries on it will cause problems in the ecosystem. Climate change has become a severe problem due to humans and their excessive burning of fossil fuels, releasing large quantity of carbon pollution and continuous deforestation.

Climate change is a long term regional, even global average of temperature, rainfall patterns and humidity during the seasons, years, and eventually decades. It has been observed since the pre-industrial period which took place between 1850and 1900. The climate system is a connected entity existing in the form of the atmosphere, land, precipitation, and bodies of water. Earth releases its own greenhouse gases that heats the Earth naturally. On average planet Earth must radiate the same amount of energy. If the energy is not reflected into space it is absorbed by Earthly surface and its atmosphere. The green house gases that operates as a blanket for the longwave radiation and is the reason Earth’s surface is warm. Natural occurring greenhouse gases ensures proper temperatures.

Climate change is caused by humans because of excessive burning of fossil fuels. Burning resources such as coal, oil, and gas produces carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide

. The burning of these fuels releases harmful products into the air. These fuels generate things such as cars, power for businesses. “Even today, oil, coal, and gas provide for about 80 percent of our energy needs.” (Denchak, 2018). In the United stated most of the electricals and transportation is powered with the help of fossil fuels.

Climate change is causes by humans releasing large quantity of air pollution. Carbon emissions trap heat into the atmosphere.

1. some 6 million Americansare exposed daily to toxic air pollution from active oil and gas wells and from transport and processing facilities. Carbon fuels such as wood, coal, petroleum release unburnt carbon particles in the environment. These particles are very dangerous pollutants and cause respiratory diseases for example asthma.
2. When fuels are incompletely burnt, they release carbon monoxide gas into the atmosphere. This gas is very dangerous as it is poisonous in nature. If we burn coal in a closed room, then the person sleeping in that room will be killed by the action of carbon monoxide.
3. The combustion of fossil fuels also releases a large amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas which is responsible for global warming. Global warming is a rise in the overall temperature of earth’s surface. This leads to melting of polar caps and rise in the sea level and further results in flooding of coastal regions.
4. Burning of coal and diesel releases sulphur dioxide This gas is extremely corrosive and suffocating in nature. Petrol gives off oxides of nitrogen. The oxides of sulfur and nitrogen get dissolved in rainwater and form acids. This is known as acid rain. This water is very harmful to plants, animals, and various monuments.

• Cutting down forests (deforestation). Trees help to regulate the climate by absorbing CO₂from the atmosphere. So when they are cut down, that beneficial effect is lost and the carbon stored in the trees is released into the atmosphere_, adding to the greenhouse effect.

Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and water vapor are two of the most important

Carbon dioxide (CO₂). A minor but very important component of the atmosphere, carbon dioxide is released through natural processes such as respiration and volcano eruptions and through human activities such as deforestation, land use changes, and burning fossil fuels. Humans have increased atmospheric CO₂ concentration by more than a third since the Industrial Revolution began. This is the most important long-lived “forcing” of climate change.

e reason scientists say that climate change is caused by humans is that it’s simple, humans drive, cook food, and even heat or cool their homes, which release gases such as, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4 ), and water vapor (H2O)

affecting food and water availability and human health, further burdening economies and societies. Continued uncontrolled GHG emissions will accelerate and compound the effects and risks of climate change well into the future.

It is important that humans maintain and responsibly use products that affects Earths.
