Global Warming

Global warming refers to a steady process of continuous rise in the level of world's temperature.

Increasing level of carbon dioxide gas and other greenhouse gases on the earth are the main

reasons of heating the atmosphere of earth. It is a major problem which our environment faces today

terribly. Global warming is the gradual warming of the air because of heat being trapped on earth.

This is happening because of the destruction and burning down of tropical forests, traffic clogging

up the city street, rapid growth of unplanned industries, the use of CFCs in packaging and

manufacturing products, the use of factories in an unplanned way etc. As a result, the amounts of

carbon dioxide are increasing. This is catastrophically reducing mankind's ability to grow food.

destroying or severally damaging wildlife and wilderness, raising sea-levels and thereby flooding

coastal areas and farmland. The weather pattern is changing. Rainfall pattem has also disturbed.

which causes drought in some areas and flooding in other areas. The alarming news is that the

polar ice caps and glaciers are melting continuously. It is causing loss of habitat near to the poles

and polar bears have greatly endangered. Wild animals living in the forest are endangered because

of their habitat loss due to deforestation. Bangladesh also cannot escape the paws of this enemy

The lower southern part of the country may go under water one day. In ord

to reduce the effect of

global warming effective societal responses are needed to be implemented and followed urgently.

It includes working against the emission of the greenhouse gases by improving the vehicles, creating

awareness among the people, selling environment-friendly appliances: encouraging recycling of

paper, metal and glass etc. Only then we can combat this problem in an effective way.

Greenhouse effect is the gradual warming of air surrounding the earth as a result of heat being

trapped by environment pollution. In short, the rise in atmospheric temperature is known as the

greenhouse effect. Greenhouse effect is a dangerous reactive type of effect that influences our

nature violently. There are many causes of greenhouse effects. The deforestation and burning down

of the tropical forests, rapid growth of unplanned industries, overpopulation, pollution, the use of

CFCs, the use of detergents, increase of temperature etc. are the causative actors of greenhouse

effect. Moreover, we are using oil, gas and coal for running cars, buses, trains, planes, power

stations and so on. These fuels have carbon in them. As a result, the amounts of carbon dioxide are

increasing. This carbon and other gases trap the heat in the atmosphere and do not allow the earth

to cool down. It eventually causes greenhouse effect. This is catastrophically reducing mankind's

ability to grow food, destroying or severally damaging wildlife and wilderness, raising sea-levels

and thereby flooding coastal areas and farmland. The weather pattern is changing. Rainfall pattern

has also disturbed which causes drought in some areas and flooding in other areas. The alarming

news is that the polar ice caps and glaciers are melting continuously. It is causing loss of habitat

near to the poles and polar bears have greatly endangered. Wild animals living in the forest are

endangered because of their habitat loss due to deforestation. Scientists have already given warning

that some parts of coastal countries including Bangladesh may go under water due to greenhouse

effect. In order to protect ourselves from its catastrophic impact and to prevent greenhouse effect,

we should take some effective measures. Therefore, deliberate cutting down of forests must be

stopped. Tree plantation programme should be adopted soon. Steps should be taken to put an end

to the causes and sources of emitting carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
