Global warming

Nowadays countries and environment are facing a lot of global warming risks. Research has proved that global warming is increasing every decade. In this essay, I will discuss some problems of global warming.

There many reasons of global warming. The first reason is that gas and oil industries contribute global warming badly. Co2, nitrous oxide, and methane which exhausted from oil, gas factories and transportation cause global warming. Fumes and gases create layers between outer space and earth and this helps to trap heat. Reflected rays from green house traps the heat in the earth.
There are several problems of global warming. The first problem is that global warming increases the earth’s temperature. If the earth’s temperature rise it will melt the ice and make the sea level rise. As result of that the water will cover many low land islands. This affect badly plants, animals, fish in the sea and human life.

All in all, global warming affects the human and earth. I hope in future to find a facility to produce clean energy like hydro electric energy which doesn’t cause global warming
