“Our World is Changing”
Climate Change is a
serious global problem and its “Alarm bell” manifestations can no longer be
ignored. It constitutes an immense scientific Diocletian sword that hangs over
humankind’s head.
Several factors
interact to bring about climate change and among them are greenhouse gasses the
increasing amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the incessant burning
of fossil fuels.
Although it would be self-deceiving to assert that humans can’t be faulted
for bringing about climate change its deleterious consequences the undeniable
fact screams than man is the author of his own woes. As global population upsurge
remains uncontrolled, more mouths to feed exploit natural resources. Forests,
which provide oxygen, are indiscriminately slashed and burned and devoted to
agricultural production. Thus with oxygen sources diminished each day the
volume of carbon dioxide released increases dramatically.
The burning of
fossil fuels in industrial production, power generation transport systems, and
other purposes has been attributed to as the principal culprit behind the
accumulation of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere which in turn, punctured a
hole in the earth’s protective ozone layer as big as Antarctica. As more cities
and population centers come into existence, more roads, dams, bridges and
infrastructures are built, waste materials pollute The soul water and air,
global environment gets inevitably damaged, and in the process, effects
climatic change. Thus, man himself is driving the nails to his environmental
and climatic coffin.
