Changed World


Back in 70’s the overall population in the world was low and most of the economic sectors were primary and secondary sectors. There was less knowledge about Global Warming. The awareness of Global Warming has been growing among the people in the late 80’s. The awareness was brought because of increase in population and industrialization. This is resulted in the change of climate. In the olden days, due to less technology and innovations people use to spend more time with family and a reasonable numbers of working hours in farmer/industries. But with gradual increase in technology people have started to become more money -minded and less involved with family relationships and also affecting the atmosphere of the world along with them. Hence, this is the concern for Global Warming.
Below are some of the effects to how the Mother Nature is reacting to the man made changes.

Effects of Global Warming:

1.     Deforestation
2.     Landslides
3.     Drought
4.     Increase in storms & rainfall
5.     Melt of Glacier and Increase in sea level
6.     Heat Waves (Wildfires)
7.     Disease (Malaria and Asthma) - (Graph)
8.     Existence of species - (Graph)

Now I’ll discuss each of these causes individually as we go further in the topic of Global Warming. I’ll give some recent data or case studies on some of the affected countries.
