Global warming is a serious issue now.... I believe its effect can already be felt by everyone all over the world. Weird and unusual weather, glaciers melting (poor polar bears) and the weather is really getting warmer and warmer to a point where the heat is a bit unbearable. But I'm glad that at least there are some actions now to 'Go Green' and save the environment. In my country currently, the government has been actively promoting recycling and also energy conservation (saving electricity). Hopefully small steps taken by everyone will make a great difference to the environment.

First of all global warming has become a serious issue because we are affected by it else we would continue polluting the environment. Still there are so many who pollute the atmosphere and only few steps have been taken to reduce it like planting trees. Due to global warming many countries' seasons have changed.

It is a true danger for the existence of all living animals and plants on the planet. But the politicians and right wing religious leaders are refusing to accept the fact and take necessary precautions. For the right wingers, every thing which happens on the planet is the will of god and cannot be meddled with.

I'm still not so sure that the global worming is caused by humanity actions for real.
Maybe this is the natural world? We do not know everything now. It is just assumptions.
But no matter what, global warming or no global warming, we should begin to reduce the need of the resources of the world. We have to care about the future of our children before everything!

This is really a serious issue. Each one of us should be aware that this had gone to dangerous levels, especially that it already started melting ice in the north and south pole. We wouldn't want to live in boats right, just like in Water world, we'll have to do our share to save the environment we're living in, if not for us, but for the younger generations. They will be the one who will bear the brunt of our current lifestyle and they will be our kids, our grandchildren and great great grandchildren. We don't want that to happen to them right.

I can feel it global warming is real happening now, the climate changing so much.. many times the temperatures going so high and in sudden its going very low. changing rapidly.. :o
Everyone should be aware that if there is no action to alleviate this problem of global warming..(this climatic changes ).. then we shall have to suffer due to the expected consequences of its effects in the near future.

Global warming is the destructive issue that is harnessing the whole planet earth. several measures should have been taken because it has come into picture for years.but because of the unawareness ot this issue,people used to take it lightly.

Global warming is one of the Hardest problems this planet have ...
We MUST do anything to prevent this .
all kinds of factories that do create a lot of pollution and all that millions of cars that destroy our planet ...
now we are looking for any other things that can help us like:
cars that don't work on fuel...
closing all kinds of factories that are creating a lot of pollution.

I think this problem is extremely severe and disappointing. Global warming was first introduced in the 80s maybe earlier! It is still happening and worsening as we speak. I think this proves how corrupt our political system really is. The fact is the governments are doing very little as to helping the environment. This is because of the influence from certain industries such as oil, energy and so forth. Extremely sad.

global warming is a process in which the carbon dioxide emitted form pollutants gets piled up in our atmosphere and doesn't allow the heat radiation to escape the earths atmosphere leaving it hotter and hotter day by day. carbon dioxide can be consumed by plants but unfortunately there are not sufficient plants left on this planet. as a consequence of global warming, polar ice is melting, and the weather cycle getting disturbed day by day. it is expected that if this process of global warming is not reversed by way of using eco-friendly fuels and planting more trees, the polar ice will melt and all the coastal regions will be water borne.....we must do something about it..

recently i have read the newspaper about the effect of global warming. about 3 Trillion tones of ice has melted in past five years..and due to that the sea level is constantly increasing but still we have nothing to contribute.. why ?

Global warming is harming the world. and people don't seem to take action
towards it. even if we start taking action today. it would take years for it
to recover. so isn't it too late to save it? what do you guys think?.
i just believe that global warming is going to be the end for us.

I agree. This issue has never been so serious as it is now. Our Mother Earth is in a critical position and it's high time we realize what we've got to do. Personally speaking, I can find that no one is doing anything except to make things worse. The ever increasing population, the increase in the vehicles on the roads, is global warming and pollution ever going to stop ?

It's the need of the hour to fight global warming. It's a nuclear bomb in the making and of the capacity to blow up a lot. Movies such as 2012(still to release ) give a very realistic picture of what the world would look like when the Ice melts due to global warming and the coastal areas are submerged for ever

we all know that global warming is a global issue right now and has to be addressed as aggressively as possible. we humans are responsible for this and it is the high time to take charge of the situation before it is too late to act. we must cut upon the fuel consumption, chemical wastes are needed to be disposed properly, plant more trees, use echo friendly vehicles etc.

The fact is the planet is due a massive environmental shift, whether it be hot or cold, anyway. there is a lot of talk about global warming but in fact it will probably turn out to be another ice age.

We have sped this up a bit yes and yes we should do something to change our ways but when you think a volcano erupting does as much damage as we do in about 100 or more years. We don't really make much of a dent and will just have to ride it out, it was going to happen anyway.

Global warming is a big issue with a lot of harms. If we continue like this, we will find all ice being melted and waters and seas covering the land. Slowly and gradually, we will find amount of carbon di oxide increasing and amount of oxygen decreasing.

With the increase in population, we must make sure to prevent global warming as much as we can, and also prevent depletion of ozone layer by reducing use of CFC's and we have to realize its high time for us, time for some action against global warming.

global warming is one of the biggest problem of this modern world and might be even for our future generation if not dealt with seriously.
there are many measures through which we can minimize global warming
1. by making use of public transport
2. by saving electricity like using cfl bulbs , etc
3. making use of eco-friendly carry bags like make of paper
4. banning plastic bags
5. burning less fuel, like using public transport, turning off stove when not needed,
6. switching to alternative source of energy.
and many more

if we abide by just a few of these, it might make a huge difference

rise in the temperature is global warming but it has many other effects on the whole world.
Temperatures will rise globally making the earth a hot planet which have effect on every specie living on earth.
it will melt glaciers thus raising the sea level which will eat up land.
can cause many floods, hurricanes and many more natural disasters which damage both humans and other other living things.
changes in climatic conditions is also the effect of global warming

I think global warming is a made up phenomenoma. I think it is a farse and it does not exist. Al Gore is also the biggest hypocrit ever. He is Mr. Environment yet he drives in limos and flies in private plains.

Smile Re: Global warming and the Harmful effects

I want us all to recognize the fact that if we lose this planet earth, we will not have any other place to go. what other duty do we owe our dear earth than take proper care of the only place of habitation that nature has given us. All hands must be on deck, the damage has been done but the question should be on how to alleviate the consequences. We must play our own part in every day life in the little way we can to avoid pollution.

I personally believe in Global warming, but we are not in as much trouble as the media is saying we are. Our greenhouse gas emissions are killing the icebergs in the Arctic.
Yes, there might be another 'Ice Age', and it might go back again. What if their isn't another Ice Age? So far, no predictions have been made for Ice Ages.
Bottom line is, it's real, and it's killing wildlife all over the world, not only in the Arctic. Temperature in the Ocean's is changing, causing fish to die, and air is becoming very unclean on land, causing land animals to die.

Its undoubtedly real all right ! The change in temperature patterns and weather across the world is proof enough that the global environment is changing...species are getting wiped out due to global warming and most of all the arctic ice caps are melting..

I was wondering though, is there really enough time to protect the environment from these changes ? I mean dependence on fuels and industrial emission of greenhouse gases are not going to stop any time soon..so whats the solution ?

Global warming is one of the main problems faced by the current world.Global warming is having many adverse effects on earth.The main problems caused by the effects of global warming are melting of polar ice and thereby rising of sea level,warm ocean water with more probability of hurricanes , increase in intensity of drought and heat waves etc.In short this phenomenon of climatic change is having very adverse effect on the life of humans and if not controlled may lead to a very dangerous and uncontrollable situation.

Rising sea level,changes in rainfall and drought patterns and an increase in 'extreme weather events' will result from global warming.Deserts are expected to become hotter.There will be a marked impact on the type of trees that grow in forests particularly in high latitudes.There are likely to be widespread and mainly adverse effects on human health partly because of increased heat stress and partly because infectious diseases will become more widespread as the pests that carry them proliferate.

Dear global warming is really global problem.
1is in our environment excess Carbon /nitrogen/ammonium element growth to excess compare with oxygen.
This is only for that in world we do not care with our environment.
We are cut to a lot of tree for our consummation, cutting forest (green field) for
More space ( residential ) use vehicle & chemical in our life, they are effect in our
Climate. Our ground water level is so dip .Him glassier are reduce and water level of sea are increases. Because we don’t care our resource.
In Air carbon gases is so high ( more industrial mills, our daily use frieze,car,scooter & other vehicle ) they are increases.

shortly, Jack and joe are talking about global warming: Jack believes that global warming is affecting our planet and therefore some action must be taken. Joe believes otherwise and he says that it is all part of natural order and we shouldn't interfere.
Jack : Well my friend i surely hope that you're right BUT WHAT IF I'M RIGHT ?
