Global warming means the slow increase in the average temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere and its oceans which may permanently change the Earth’s climate. Increase of Earth’s atmosphere due to carbon dioxide created by human activates, will cause more of the Sun’s radiation to trap on Earth which is the factor of global warming.
With the changing of Earth’s climate, bigger and more frequent storms have occur, fasten the melting of ice in the two polar of the Earth which will rise the oceans level, which lead to floods and country land to be cover up by sea water forever, increase in temperature which causes larger scale of forest fire. These are few examples only.
The main causes of global warming are human. Carbon dioxide is produce by burning of fossil fuels which it’s emitted from cars, airplanes, building structure, power plants and many more.
In Singapore, the government sector has organized campaign to help reduce the effect of global warming. The smoking campaign, by banning smoking in most area in Singapore, one person smokes creates a little carbon dioxide but when millions of people smoke creates a big cloud of carbon dioxide. The recycle, reduce and reduce campaign, when everyone do this, it will help reduce the burning of waste that’s create carbon dioxide. In Singapore, the governments use the waste to build lands in Singapore at Semakau. The government has build more public transport to the people, so to reduce the vehicle on the road that create carbon dioxide.
An individual can help to decrease the effect of global warming, by the means of decreasing the amount of electricity usage or use other source of power like solar, wind and water energy. Cut down the amounts of cars in a country, create more public transport, and increase taxes of car. Reduce burning of waste, recycle the waste. More solution can be thought of, is whether we have the heart to do it. The solution is just within our hands, we just need the determination to make it happen. We need to save the Earth so to save our life and our next generation.

I agree with Alan that the solution is within our hands. It takes each and every individual to play a part to save our Earth. We need to spread the news and start playing our part now!
ReplyDeleteAlan has suggested a few good means to ease the effect of global warming and has showed us how Singapore is doing to prevent global warming from taking place. I do agree with him that everyone is responsible for fighting climate change.
ReplyDeleteYou have got quite a few some good suggestions on how to reduce the effect of global warming. The solution you have mentioned can be done by everyone is just the matter of whether an individual has the determination to do it. If everyone helps a little, we can have a better living in future.
ReplyDeleteI partially agree with the others. Some of the initiatives, such as the COE policy and an eficient public transportation system, started by the Singapore government will do a lot to decrease individual CO2 emmisions. However, limiting smoking is more of a health concern. Cigarette smoke stays near the ground affecting people but not trapping the sun's rays.
