Background
Earth is our
residence. It is our
responsibility to
love and take care
of it from ruining.

Definition
Global warming is
the increase in the
average measured
temperature of the
Earth's near-surface
air and oceans and
its projected
continuation.

CONDITION OF EARTH
NOW:
1. World forest more and more
hairless because it is always
cut away.
2.

Besides drinking water in

bottle, it also has been sold air
in the bottle.

3.

Various animal types can be

extinct.

if we still cool,

CONDITION OF EARTH
in1. 2500:
Animal and trees will be made of
machine or robot.
2. When people go out from their house
they must use special anti sunshine
clothes and oxygen tube.
3. Man will move to other
possibly to destroy it again.

How We Contribute to Global Warming?

Burning natural gas, coal and oil
including fuel, raises the level of CO in
the atmosphere.

Some farming practices and land usage

increase methane and nitrous oxides
level.

Many factories produce poisonous gases

industrial produce gases that dont occur
naturally, yet contribute to the enhanced
global warming.

Deforestation
warming

contributes

to

global

Trees use CO and give off O.

Population growth
Many people use fossil fuel, for heating,
transportation and manufacturing.

World population versus food production

Decrease of agricultural areas

Expansion of towns/roads
Billions

Soil degradation
Erosion
1 hectare is lost every 6.67 seconds

Agriculture for non-food uses

About 5.5 billion people in 2000 and about

11 billion people predicted by 2050.

bio-fuels
fibers
wood
Increase of crop productivity and quality is
necessary

5 Deadliest Effects of Global Warmin

1. Spread of disease
Insect bringing plague and
disease

2. Warmer waters and more

hurricanes
Because the temperature of
oceans rises

3. Increase the
droughts
and heat waves
Earth will suffer serious
droughts and

4. Economic
consequences

Damage and diseases cost

more money

5. Polar ice caps melting

The sea levels rises,
temperature rises, and
snowball with the ice caps gone

Top 10 Things to Reduce GlobalWarmin

1. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Using recycle, reusable, and
packaging products.

minimal

2. Use Less Heat and Air Conditioning

Turn down the heat at night or during the
day, and keep temperatures moderate at
all times.
3. Change a Light Bulb
Replace regular light bulbs with CFL bulbs.

4. Drive Less and Drive Smart

Saving gasoline, reduce emission.
5. Buy Energy-Efficient Products
Avoid excess packaging products and can't
be recycled.
6. Use Less Hot Water
Set your water heater at 120 degrees to
save energy.
7. Use the "Off" Switch
Using electricity as much as you need.

8. Plant a Tree
Tree absorb carbon dioxide and give off
oxygen.
9. Get a Report Card
Many utility companies offer rebate
programs to help pay for the cost of
energy-efficient upgrades.
10. Encourage Others to Conserve
Share information about global warming to
each other.

Conclusion
Now, earth is more
and more
dangerous. We are
some of the causes
of it and there are
more diseases. By
easy things we can
reduce global
warming.

LETS SAVE
OUR EARTH!
