Global Warming

Picture 1: Facories polluting the atmosphere


Atmospheric Pollution (greenhouse effect)

Global Warming results from the industrial development which leads to a better life in the society.
Everything starts with the Industrial Revolution.
The appearing of factories, which every day, trough their chimneys put in the atmosphere tons of gases which cause the greenhouse effect.
Cars, which circulate 24 hours a day, to can move realize combustions and one of the products of this combustion are gases, that trough the exhaust pipes free gases to the atmosphere that will join to the gases released from the factories increasing the greenhouse effect.
If we join the gases that results from the domestic activities to this factors we can conclude that in the developed countries, every day are realized activities that contributes for the changes of the constituents or it concentration in the atmosphere.
Another global warming cause is the deforestation because they are the only ‘factories’ that can remove Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and return Oxygen (O2) to the atmosphere.
The global warming has awful consequences like ice melting, habitats destruction, sea level rise, more precipitation, more hurricanes and storms, extinction of species, less drinkable water available and ecosystems will change.
It depends of us take conscience of the attitudes that we have to take in the day-by-day to avoid the increasing of the global warming. The same has to happen with the factories which need to have chimneys biggest with filters to be able to hold back some substances produced and release others in big distances.
The government of all the countries has to implement a politic with the objective: Preserve the environment!
There are many solutions to this problem. Solutions like improvements to energy efficiency and vehicle fuel economy, increases in wind and solar power, the increase in the use of natural gas and nuclear power and the increasing of forestlands.
Planet Earth is only one and it has to be of everyone.
Why to ruin if we can improve?!

I liked immensely your text, because speech that the greenhouse effect is the consequent destruction of the layer of ozono, besides to provoke the acid rains, they contribute also greatly to the atmospheric pollution.

I really enjoyed the movie, I think it becomes the main idea and sends people the idea and what is meant. Tatiana *
