GLOBAL WARMING

Global warming is a gradual increase in the earth’s temperature generally due to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, CFCs, and other pollutants.

Global warming is the steady and continuous rise in the level of the earth’s temperature. Our earth’s surface is becoming hotter day by day just because of some unnoticeable habits of human beings all across the world. There are many reasons behind this increasing global warming. It is a man-created environmental issue which is gradually affecting the whole environment all over the world since many years.

Global warming is the long-term warming of the planet’s overall temperature. Though this warming trend has been going on for a long time, its pace has significantly increased in the last hundred years due to the burning of fossil fuels. As the human population has increased, so has the volume of fossil fuels burned. Fossil fuels include coal, oil, and natural gas, and burning them causes what is known as the “greenhouse effect” in Earth’s atmosphere.
