Definition For Global Warming - Along With Extra Information on Global Warming By Kris Foster

The Definition for global warming--Introduction

The temperature of planet earth has been on the rise due to the excessive release of carbon dioxide and various harmful gases into the atmosphere. These gases come from cars, factories, industries, air conditioners, etc. This leads to a phenomenon known as global warming.

Definition for Global warming-

Global warming can be simply defined as 'warming of the planet earth due to increase in the average temperature which is caused due to emission of various harmful gases into the environment.'

Some amount of global warming is caused naturally(the earth goes through a cycle of climatic change). But scientists believe that the present and sudden warming is caused due to human activities that are harmful to the environment.

When harmful gases are in excess in the atmosphere, they affect the ozone layer which is a layer that protects us from the harmful rays of the sun. When it gets affected, the harmful rays are let into our atmosphere and hence can cause various skin diseases, etc. Also, due to unfiltered rays entering, the global temperature increases beyond the need.

This warming is actually very harmful to the planet as well as to human beings. Various disasters like floods, cyclones are suspected to be caused due to global warming. A very simple reason why global warming is suspected for these effects is that global warming is responsible for sudden climatic change. This sudden climatic change further causes disasters.

As per the definition of global warming stated above, the average temperature of the earth increases. Hence, this causes the glaciers and icebergs to melt down. Thus, apart from the natural beauty of these cold regions being destroyed, animals living is such areas are also affected. Polar bears are one of the species which are getting endangered due to global warming.
