GLOBAL WARMING

 GLOBAL WARMING IN CLIMATE
• Global warming is the unusually rapid increase in Earths
average surface temperature over the past century primarily
due to the greenhouse gases released by people burning
fossil fuels. Earth has experienced climate change in the
past without help from humanity. But the current climatic
warming is occurring much more rapidly than past warming
events. As the Earth moved out of ice ages over the past
million years, the global temperature rose a total of 4 to 7
degrees Celsius over about 5,000 years.
 IMPACT OF GLOBAL WARMING
• Our climate is determined by patterns of temperature, wind, atmospheric
pressure, humidity and rain over a long period of time. There are different
climates around the world, such as tropical, dry and moderate. As a large
country, Australia has a variety of climates.
• The climate of an area determines its seasons and when they come and go.
This, in turn, affects the type of plants that grow and which animals survive.
The species and places we love depend on intricate ecosystems, and even
small changes to the climate can disrupt the delicate balance of nature.
• As humans, every aspect of our life is reliant on the natural environment. This
includes the food we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink, the clothes
we wear and the products that are made and sold to create jobs and drive the
economy. A healthy and stable climate is our most precious natural resource.
