It is quite sad that many people still don't know the severity or the seriousness of the consequences of Global Warming. Gloal warming is capable of turning our beloved home(Mother Earth) against us in the nearest future if we don't start healing it now. Global Warming is also know as climate change.
As a result of Global warming, the earth's temperature rises, water and air currents moves and heat most part of the land and cool other parts of the land. The earth does not necessarily always get warmer as a result of Global warming. Some part of the earth may get colder, but it all depends on the air and ocean current.
Global Warming is capable of causing the following:
1.Drought
2.Famine
3.Heat waves
4.Melting Sea Ice
5.Diseases
6.Frequent Wild Fires
7.Frequent Hurricanes
8.Animal Extinction
9.Reduction In The Quality Of Life
10.Economic Collapse
11.Health Risks
12.Reduction In Air Quality
13.Reduced Supply Of Fresh Water
14.Reduction In Sea Level
15.Agricultural Products Will Increase
16.Shortage Of Food Supply
17.Decreased Population
18.Flooding In Some Areas
19.Change In Seasons
20.Human Extinction.
20 Simple Ways To End Global Warming
TURN OFF APPLICTIONS WHEN NOT IN USE: Most applications like the Television set when on standby mode uses 40% of their overall energy when they are idle.
Your Water Heater Should Be Insulated: Water that is warm doesn't need much energy to get heated.
Home Energy Audit Is Necessary: knowing areas that constitute unnecessary consumption of energy can help reduce energy usage by 30%.
Use More Of Solar Energy: To install solar energy is something that can be easily done these days. Most government agencies and solar energy companys are even giving discounts on solar energy equipment purchased.
Purchase Energy Efficient Applications: Good energy efficient products can help you save alot of money from energy bills, save energy and also reduce your carbon footprint.
Turn Off The Light: what's the essence of consuming much energy by leaving the lights on when the room is not in use? So, when next you are leaving the put off the light and save that energy.
Stop Cutting Down Trees Unnecessarily: Trees play vital roles in healing mother earth. They help us reduce carbon dioxide and give us oxygen in return. So, why cutting them down, is that the only option left?
Stop Wasting Water: Please, it is important we stop wasting water because they take energy to pump them into the tank. Don't leave the water running unnecessary for too long if you don't have need for it.
Use A Clothesline Instead Of Dryer: It's necessary we use the Clothesline that gives our cloth freshness and save energy rather than use the drying machine and consume alot of energy.
Use A Low Shower Head: This is to help reduce water wastage and reserve energy.
Use The Shower Instead Of The Bath: The bath consumes more water than the shower.
Plant A Tree: This is my number one recommended way of eliminating global warming. This method is by far better than all other methods of fighting global warming. Trees don't just give us oxygen, but during photosynthesis they take in carbon dioxide.
Maintain Your Car Regularly: maintaining your car regularly will also help in reducing the emission of carbon.
Make Use Of Your Bike: You can always use your bike for shorter distances. It cuts down cost, reduce the emission of carbon and also serves as a means of exercing which is good for your health.
Cover Your Pots And Pan While Cooking: You can save up to 70% percent of your cooking energy when you properly cover your pots and pans. Or better still, use a pressure cooker or steemer.
Recycle: It will be ok if we can start recycling our waste. We can actually save up to 2400 pounds of carbon dioxide in a year, only if we can recycle half of our waste.
Reduce Number Of Cars: Instead of having hundred card and emitting carbon dioxide, you can use two energy efficient cars.
Patronize Local Products: Patronizing local products will also help eliminate global warming, because most food from other nations can travel over 1,300 miles to get to you.
Use Wind Energy: If it is possible for you to get in contact with people who can help you set up wind energy, that will be better. I'm currently looking for such services, if you have any information on that, I will appreciate it if you let me know.
Spread The Awareness: : talk to your family and friends, educate them on the effects of Global Warming so they can always make the right decision. You can begin, by Upvoting and Resteeming this post so every one will be aware of the impending doom that will befall us if they don't make the right decisions.
Remember change begins with you...
CONCLUSION
In case you don't know, mother earth is currently sick and needs each and every one of us to contribute in healing her.
The prime aim of putting up these piece of article, is to employ every one of us to play our various parts in healing mother earth again.
