We thought we was brilliant to create new technologies to ease our lives, open up forests to feed, to accommodate our increasing population. We never consider about the impacts those had to do with our earth and environment. Now, whether we are facing the coming of the 2012,end of the world or not, one thing we should do now is to take initiative and actions to recover our MOTHER EARTH's sickness!
CLIMATE CHANGE
Climate change can be define as the variation in the Earth's greenhouse or the on going variation in regional climates. Already, climate change is more alarming nowadays and has created huge impacts to the earth. The extreme in temperatures, the rising sea levels as a result of melting polar ice caps which then cause more and more storms and floods experienced in many regions of the world.
One of the obvious sign of climate change is the ongoing global warming. Global warming refers to the average rise in surface air temperature.Over the past 100 years, the global average surface air temperature has abnormally increased by 0.74 °C.The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states that if this trend continue, by 2100 the global average temperature is most likely to increase by a further 1.8°C to 4°C or maybe the worst to be up to 6.4°C.
If we don't do something now, climate change is predicted to cause more and more damage to the functioning of our natural environment which then may disrupt the supplies of our food, raw materials, animals' habitats and other vital resources. Here's a video about a 12 years old girl from Environmental Child Organization (ECO) giving her speech in a conference to fight for her 'FUTURE'!! She had silenced the world to listen to what she had to say.
