Global Warming: Consequences on Ecosystem, Melting Glaciers and Spread of Disease_2

INTRODUCTION
As the Earth gets warm, melt lines moves towards upwards wherein glacier melts quicker as
well as faster at bottom that shortens the glacier addition to reduces its mass (Frölicher, Fischer
and Gruber, 2018). Global warming is said to gradual enhancement of temperature of an earth
because of greenhouse effect caused through enhanced levels of CFCs, Carbon Dioxide and
other kinds of pollutants. The essay covers description of global warming and its consequences.
MAIN BODY
Global warming is seen as the phenomenon of enhancing average air temperature around
surface of Earth over past few centuries. In accordance to Letcher (2019), it is long term
warming of overall temperature of the Earth. Since Industrial Revolution, there is increment on
global annual temperature that is totality by little more than 2 Degree Fahrenheit or 1 Degree of
Celsius (Letcher, 2019). It occurs at the time carbon dioxide together with other categories of air
pollutants gather in atmosphere as well as absorb sunlight and radiation of solar that bounced off
surface of Earth. The radiation would escape into space, however, the pollutants that can last for
years to centuries in atmosphere, generally trap heat addition to cause planet to get more hotter.
The heat trapping pollutants, including nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, synthetic fluorinated gases,
methane, water vapour as well as nitrous oxide are greenhouse gases that causes impact that is
known as greenhouse effect.
Tziperman (2022) says that rising temperature of Earth are fuelling longer as well as
hotter heat waves, heavier rainfall, more frequent droughts along with powerful hurricanes
(Tziperman, 2022). It is significant as it assists in determining upcoming expectations about the
climate. Through usage of latitude, it becomes easy to determine likelihood of snow, hail
reaching surface and so on. Humans have been enhancingly influencing climate and temperature
of Earth through burning fossil fuels, farming livestock together with cutting down forests. At
the core, change in climate is simple to grasp. When more carbon dioxide together with other
warming gases are put into atmosphere, it leads to rise in higher global temperatures. Between
the year 1850 and 2019, there is release of approximate 2390 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide by
human into atmosphere (The 10 facts that prove we’re in a climate emergency, 2022). In this,
one gigatonne is equivalent to around one billion metric tonnes that is lot more of carbon
