Global Warming is the increase of Earth's average surface temperature due to effect of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels or from deforestation, which trap heat that would otherwise escape from Earth. This is a type of greenhouse effect.

Pollution from coal, natural gas, and oil

Why is global warming happening?

Fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas)

Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

Increased Temperature

Habitat Damage and

Species Affected

Changes in Water Supply

Rising Sea Level

The Sun’s energy passes through the car’s windshield.

This energy (heat) is trapped inside the car and cannot pass back through the windshield, causing, the inside of the car to warm up.

Example of the Greenhouse Effect

This is where temperature have risen in the world.

How is global warming measured?

The yellow represents warming, melting glaciers, flooding and rising of sea level. The red represents the spread of disease, earlier springs and population changes, heavy snowfalls, and flooding, droughts and fires.

More intense and longer droughts have been observed over wider areas since the 1970s, particularly in the tropics and subtropics

“Penguin population decline. Penguin population have shrunk by 33% during the past 25 years in response to declines in their winter sea ice habitat.”

What can you do to help What can you do to help solve the problem?solve the problem?

Turn off your computer or the TV when you’re not using it.

Take shorter showers. Heating water uses energy.

Keep rooms cool by closing the blinds, shades,

or curtains.

Turn off the lights when you leave a room.

Use compact fluorescent bulbs.

Dress lightly when it’s hot instead of turning up

the air conditioning Or use a fan.

Dress warmly when it is cold instead of turning up the heat.

Offer to help your parents keep the air filters on your AC and furnace clean.

Walk short distance instead of asking for a ride in the car.

Plant a tree. Recycle.

Global warming is affecting plants, animals, humans and the earth. We need to learn how to conserve our use of fossil fuels to minimize carbon dioxide production. This will slow down the effects of global warming.
