8. What is Global
Warming ?
A slow but sure escalation in
the overall temperature of the
Earth's atmosphere generally
attributed to the g r e e n h o u s e
effect caused by increased
levels of c ar bo n d io x i d e ,
CF C s, and other pollutants is
called G l o b a l W a r m i n g .

One of the most prominent
causes of the G l o b al War m in g
is the G r e e n h o u s e E f f e c t .

10. Greenhouse Effect

11. When greenhouse gases
like carbon dioxide, methane,
chlorofluorocarbon(CFC’s) etc.
trap the outgoing solar
radiations of the sun
reflected by the surface of
the earth and do not allow the
heat to escape then this is
known as greenhouse effect
which causes GLOBAL

12. Effects
Global Warming has numerous
harsh effects which are
represented by these pictures:

15. The frequency of heavy precipitation events has
increased over most land areas

1 million people lost their homes

16. Intense tropical cyclone activity has increased
in the North Atlantic since about 1970
- Hurricane Katrina, 2005: up to $200 billion cost estimate

17. More intense and longer droughts have been observed over wider areas
since the 1970s, particularly in the tropics and subtropics

Because of Global Warming

19. What can be done ?
"As a society, we can blunt
the worsening of global warming by
immediately cutting back on our
wasteful energy usage. If we do
nothing, the effects will be much
worse."
