fossil fuels (coal, oil and gas) and large-scale
deforestation, which results in emission of large
amounts of 'greenhouse gases' to the atmosphere.
Now the Question arises that, what causes

Droughts and Floods
Higher temperature leads to faster evaporation of
water and leads to drought in one part, and heavy
rainfall causes flooding in other part of the
world. Experts have estimated that, drought
conditions might be increasing by at least 66
percent in upcoming years.

Effects on Biodiversity

Wildlife researchers have noticed some of the strong species migrating to the poles, far north and far south to
maintain their needed habitat, for example the red fox normally an inhabitant of North America is now seen
living in the Arctic. Also it has been noticed that loss of species and endangerment is rising along with the
global temperatures. Ваш логотип или название
Prevention of Global Warming We can prevent Global Warming by reducing the demand of
fossil fuels and by using the energy more wisely. Some of the simple actions which can help
us to reduce the effects the global warming are

• We can reduce the emission of carbon dioxide by choosing


reusable products instead of disposables.
