Effects of Global Warming

“The earth is in danger of burning up. We are all in the danger of

getting burnt down. Global Warming is certainly the greatest
environmental challenge that is facing the earth presently. The sea level
is slowly rising, the ice on our mountain glaciers is falling down and
cases of drought and famine are increasing. Further, we are recording
the hottest days and decades ever. What is even more alarming is that
the earth’s temperature has risen to the highest point ever in recent
years.

The effects of global warming are enormous. First, it has led to the
rising of sea level. Another, the effect of global warming is hotter
temperatures. Closely all countries are experiencing more heat waves
and hot days. Today we experiencing more severe storms due to global
warming. The change in temperature leads to changes in rainfall. As a
result, more severe and frequent storms are coming up. With increased
storms and rainfall, flooding and landslides have become more common.

We all have seen the effects of global warming. Our lives have
been affected by this menace in one way or another. To have better
days ahead we all need to come together and prevent the rise of the
earth’s temperature. Proper measures should be put in place by
individuals, organizations, countries, and the world as a whole. Our earth
is so unforgiving; she will destroy us at the same rate we are destroying
her.”
