An introduction to global warming

Global warming has been a serious problem since decades, and it keeps developing by the time. In previous era, the amount of carbon dioxide has increased and kept changing over the time due to the agricultural activities such as raising cattle and growing rice.

Human activities and nature influences are the two main reasons for causing a global warming. Human activities cause global warming such as driving cars, using electricity and heating our homes with oil. Moreover, green house gases which have a great impact on atmosphere and environment. As a result, having accumulated amount of green gases, trap heat on atmosphere and less goes back to out space. Furthermore, the serious problem that might be followed by global warming is the climate changes due to the less amount of heat in atmosphere. In addition, species are extinct and not able to adapt the new environment. Finally, changing in climate might cause a sever storms and floods.

My comment:

In my point of view, global warming is a serious problem because it has a big impact on our climate and species. Some of species do not exist anymore because they couldn’t fit into the new and changed environment. In addition, human beings will be affected by global warming in losing their normal environment and traveling to the different places searching for a good habitat. My advice is that human being should be careful in how to use the recourse in a suitable way.

My name is Abdulla Ahmed AlShehhi. I am 18 years old. I am a second year student in HCT and I study business. I study business because I love this major. I live in Abu Dhabi in the Khalifa City. However I was born in Abu Dhabi in Al/Corniche Hospital. My family lived in Ras AlKhaimah and Dubai for 30 years but suddenly my father changed the destination to Abu Dhabi because of his job. We still visit Ras AlKhaimah and Dubai and I have alot of friends there and I go there every weekend and I also go to visit my relatives in Ras AlKhaimah and Dubai. Sometimes when I’m sitting at home in Abu Dhabi I go to walk around Khalifa City, and I go to meet a friend.
In this blog project, Hedley is encouraging us to think critically and analytically about the issues of climate change and global warming. Global warming means that the ice soon will melt down and the earth will be soon a desert if we don’t stop using cars and polluting the world.
