Global warming is one of the most challenging environmental problems today. It comes longer and more intense heat waves. National borders have no meaning for the atmosphere. The damage of the atmosphere makes harmful elements enter and travel around the world. And now, people are worried about the global effects of alarm pollution. Research shows that the earth’s atmosphere is changing in ways that could be destructive to our life. Pollution could be a major cause of this. One of the pollutants that is causing the greatest concern is carbon dioxide. It is released into the alarm when coal or petroleum Is burned.
Carbon dioxide has always be a part of our atmosphere. However, the amount of carbon dioxide In the atmosphere greatly increased. This is the result of an enormous increase in the amount of coal that burned for fuel. At the same time, the earth’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide has greatly decreased. Absorption of carbon dioxide occurs In area of the forest, but those areas are rapidly disappearing because of forests are cut down. The carbon dioxide making the sun’s heat more intense and the temperature of the earth would be increased. Such a temperature change could be dangerous.
Some area on the earth could become too hot and the water level of the ocean would rise because of the melting of polar Ice. The Industrialized areas are releasing more carbon dioxide into the air. A global disaster can only be avoided by a global solution. We need to think globally. We need to look beyond on our own borders at the needs of the earth as a whole. We must plant a lot of tree and use the transportation only when we need It. We must protect the forest to avoid It from illegal logging. This may be the ways to clean up our atmosphere and prevent the disastrous change. NAME CLASS : Alien Danny Jakarta : EID011004 : AAA (Regular Page)
There is nothing new about people cutting down the trees. Today, however, trees are being cut down more rapidly. While there are Important reasons for cutting down trees, there are also dangerous consequences for our life. A major cause of the present destruction is our demand for wood. People are using more and more wood for paper, furniture and houses. But there is not enough wood to satisfy the demand of people. Wood companies, therefore, starts taking wood Illegally from the forest. Wood Is also In great demand as firewood. In many areas, people depend on wood to kook their food.
As the population grows, the need for wood grows too. But when too 1 OFF down the trees and burn them, unfortunately, the forest soil is not good for growing food it makes the survival of animals in the forest would be threatened too. However, the small farmers who are move in are not the only ones to cut and burn forests. The landowners that want to raise a lot of cattle also burn parts of the forests and they move the cattle into the forest land. This way both land and forests are destroyed. They have also lost the resources of the forest. The destruction of forests affects the people who used to live there.
However, it also has other effects far away. For example, in the forest on the mountainsides, tree help to absorb heavy rains. When the trees are cut down, the rain pour all at once into the rivers and there are terrible floods downstream and soil erosion. But finally, the loss of forests may have an effect on the climate of our planets. Forest is the source of waters and fresh air. Together, we can decreasing the illegal logging by protect our forest and ask people to plant trees for our next generation, it could make the changes around the world, not only for the other people’s life, but our life too.
