INTRODUCCION

The present work is developed based on some of the global problems that exist
today in the world. I have taken these five problems among countless others that
exist, since they seemed interesting to me to be able to expose about them and so
that I can learn a little more about the situation of these problems but also specify my
point of view of the theme emphasizing their importance and awareness to prevent
these problems from continuing to occur in the world, therefore they will develop and
take into account some basic and above all important information about each of
these.
GLOBAL PROBLEMS

Climate
Change

Lack of Water Contamination

Poverty Deforestation
1. Climate Change

Climate change is undoubtedly one of the global problems of which generate an


issue of interest and of course this due to its great importance and impact on our
planet and as we all know the climate has undergone major changes throughout
history this It is due to natural effects that are largely as a result of human activity
referring to what is known as greenhouse gases so that these gases cause the
atmosphere to retain heat with it there is a great variation in the climate with
phenomena natural that occur in a very irregular way in a large part of the planet,
generating great heat waves in very cold countries and likewise, it even rains or
snows in countries where this has never happened due to its habitual climate is due
to This is giving a lack of control regarding the climate of our planet earth and this is
progressing without measure having an incredible acceleration and a change that is
increasingly drastic affecting development through catastrophes, likewise affecting
countless ecosystems and much of the flora and fauna that inhabits them.

2. Contamination

Environmental pollution is that which occurs due to harmful components that pollute
the environment. Among these, chemical, biological waste, among others, can be
found. One of the main consequences of environmental pollution is global warming,
also known as climate change, whereby the planet's temperature increases
progressively, both the atmospheric temperature and that of the seas and oceans.
Environmental pollution poses a risk to the health of living beings that inhabit
contaminated ecosystems, including humans. In addition, indiscriminate felling, the
excessive exploitation of natural resources and the emission of pollutants into the
environment (gases into the atmosphere, discharges into aquatic environments, solid
waste) causes the destruction of ecosystems. In this way, many species of animals
and plants see how their natural habitat is increasingly reduced, and may even
cause their extinction. While animal and plant life has always adapted perfectly to the
ecosystem, human evolution for the sake of continuous progress has adapted the
environment to its interests, modifying it to accommodate its needs with a negative
impact that has been accelerating geometrically since the revolution. Industrial, In
this sense, the concepts of environmental care and industrial development, as the
origin of air, water and soil contamination, have been in total dispute until not long
ago, since the concern about gases emitted in industrial processes, toxic discharges,
the non-degradable waste generated in the production and transformation of goods
and services, and the extermination of plant and animal species, despite
deteriorating the environment on our planet, and with it the conditions for the life of
all the beings that inhabit it, It was not considered important within companies but as
an economic obstacle.

3. Deforestation

Deforestation is the process by which the land loses its forests in the hands of men.
Man in his quest to satisfy his personal or community needs uses wood to make
many products. Wood is also used as fuel or firewood for cooking and heating. On
the other hand, economic activities in the field require areas for livestock or to grow
different products. This has put great pressure on forests. By knocking down a
forest, the organisms that lived there are left homeless. In many cases animals,
plants and other organisms die or have to move to another forest. Destroying a
forest means killing many of the species that live in it. Some of these species are not
known to man. In this way, many species are being lost day by day and disappearing
forever from the planet. Deforestation devastates the forests and jungles of the Earth
in a massive way causing immense damage to the quality of the soils. Forests still
cover around 30 percent of the world's regions, but strips the size of Panama are lost
each year. Rainforests and rain forests could completely disappear in a hundred
years if the current rate of deforestation continues. The reasons for indiscriminate
logging are many, but most are related to money or the farmers' need to support
their families. The underlying engine of deforestation is agriculture. Farmers clear
forests in order to obtain more space for their crops or for grazing livestock. The
most viable solution would be to manage plant resources carefully by eliminating
agricultural clearings to ensure that forest environments remain intact. The felling
carried out must be done in a balanced way by planting enough young trees to
replace the oldest in all forests and jungles. The number of new tree plantations
increases every year, but the total still equals a tiny fraction of the planet's forest
area.
4. Poverty or Economic Inequality

I consider that this is a problem that is found in all or at least the majority of countries
in the world, understanding that economic wealth remains in a few and there is not
really an equity between the flows of money as a system that allows sustainability.
Economic of the society of the different countries or regions of the world. Poverty is
an epidemic that affects millions of people on our planet. In the world, 1,400 million
people suffer extreme poverty and almost 900 million suffer hunger and that they do
not even have access to cover their basic needs. Poverty is an epidemic that affects
millions of people on our planet. In the world, 1,400 million people suffer extreme
poverty and almost 900 million suffer hunger. There are many causes or factors that
influence and lead to poverty. Among them we can find: corruption, climate change,
diseases and epidemics, inequality in the distribution or distribution of resources,
population growth, and armed conflicts, among others. The way in which this
problem of poverty can be counteracted is by facing each one of these factors that
make it exist, it may not be possible to eradicate it so quickly, but at least work can
be done to reduce it by over time, the important thing is to take initiative.

5. Lack of Water

Water scarcity refers to the lack of sufficient water resources to meet the demands
for water consumption in a region. The water shortage problem affects about 2.8
billion people on all continents of the world for at least a month each year. More than
1.3 billion people do not have access to safe drinking water. Water is at the epicenter
of sustainable development and is fundamental for socioeconomic development,
energy and food production, healthy ecosystems and for the very survival of human
beings. Water is also a crucial part of adaptation to climate change, and is the crucial
link between society and the environment. Water scarcity can be the result of two
mechanisms: the physical (absolute) scarcity of water and the economic scarcity of
water, where the physical scarcity of water is the result of insufficient natural water
resources to supply the demand for water. A region, and economic water scarcity is
the result of mismanagement of available water resources. According to the United
Nations Development Program, economic water scarcity is usually the main cause in
most countries or regions experiencing water shortages, because most countries or
regions have enough fresh water to meet the needs of households, as well as
industrial, agricultural and environmental needs, but lack the means to provide it in
an accessible way.
CONCLUSION

I conclude on the importance of facing these problems and of taking a personal


initiative to be able to counteract these global problems that are currently taking
place in the world, but above all to be able to share that initiative and motivate others
to become aware of the situation and learn about the situation. Importance of
eradicating these problems and being able to know how to do it knowing that it is not
something difficult to do because together we can achieve it because with the
personal effort of each one, great positive changes are generated
