What Can Happen If Global Warming and Climate Change Is Not Stopped Like any other planet in the solar system, even our planet earth has undergone several changes to make it habitable. The atmosphere and a crust developed after the earth cooled from burning molten ball. This is how land and the mountain ranges came into being. The climate has cooled and warmed throughout the entire process. Variations in temperature have resulted in climatic differences between the tropical... 
Some Quick Facts about Global Warming and Climate Change That You Must Know Over the last 20 years, global warming is said to be the major contributory factor towards increasing the temperature on the earth’s surface. The rise in temperature is estimated to be about one degree over the last 20 years. Today we experience a number of measurable changes as a result of global warming and climatic changes. Let’s Have A Look At The Basic Process: Increase in temperature... 
Effects of Global Warming and Climate Change and What You Can Do About It Climatic conditions on the surface of the earth are always undergoing change. In the past, climatic changes resulted out of natural causes. Since the early 1990s, there has been a drastic alteration in the pattern of climatic changes. These changes in the climatic conditions that we see today and which have been predicted for over the coming 80 years are said to be the results of human activities.... 
The increased concentration of greenhouse gases is critical, because its changes the climate condition very fast. Since we depend climate for our lives the new and unpredictable climate will poses a great challenges to our life. Since the greenhouse gases keep raising, Earth’s ice areas such as Greenland and Antarctica are already started melting and as a result this extra water potentially raises sea levels considerably. In addition to this sea level rising, weather... 
When the sunlight reaches the Earth’s surface it is absorbed and then radiated back into the atmosphere as heat.  The greenhouse gases in the atmosphere catch some of this heat and let the rest escape into the space.  The amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere decides the amount of heat being trapped, the more gases in the atmosphere traps more heat. Scientists are aware of this greenhouse effect since 1824. Joseph Fourier who discovered the greenhouse effect... 
Greenhouse effect is not caused by humans it is natural warming process.  CO2 Carbon dioxide and other gases are always present in the atmosphere and these gases create a warming effect similar to the warming inside a greenhouse hence the name “Greenhouse Effect”. Emission and absorption of infrared radiation by the gases in the atmosphere warms out a planet’s atmosphere and surface, this process is said to be “Greenhouse Effect”.  In simple Greenhouse effect...
