The causes and effects of global warming maintain both a direct and indirect relationship. They are directly related because the causes of global warming result in the effects. However the causes and effects of global warming are inversely related because one can prevent and fix the causes, but cannot reverse the damage/effects once they are already done. Now that you have a better understand of what is global warming, the next would be how to prevent it? There are simple things that an individual can do to decrease the causes and effects of global warming. The world’s electricity is based primarily on the burning of coal, so one should decrease the amount and their demand of electricity or try and use other methods such as solar powered. By simply decreasing the electric power use, one is not only reducing the global warming problem but also breathing in cleaner air and saving money. The second decrease should be in the use of one’s car by perhaps joining a carpool or using public transportation. There are also fuel-efficient cars that are being mass produced. By either decreasing the overall use of one’s car or replacing it with a fuel-efficient or hybrid automobile, one is not only helping in the reduction of greenhouse gas emission but is also saving money on parts, repairs, gas, and oil. The third and easiest prevention method would be to simply recycle

effects
Increasing global temperatures are the primary effects of global warming. However they are causing a broad range of additional, secondary effects :
Sea levels are rising due to thermal expansion of the ocean, in addition to melting of land ice.
Amounts and patterns of precipitation are changing. The total annual power of hurricanes has already increased markedly since 1975 because their average intensity and average duration have increased (in addition, there has been a high correlation of hurricane power with tropical sea-surface temperature).
Changes in temperature and precipitation patterns have also global effects on extreme weather events: They increase the frequency, duration, and intensity of floods, droughts, heat waves, and tornadoes. Other effects of global warming include higher or lower agricultural yields, further glacial retreat, reduced summer stream flows, species extinctions. As further effects of global warming, diseases like malaria are returning into areas where they have been extinguished earlier.
co2
I think we need to take better care of our planet. Air and water pollution need to be focus but not this blind obsession with CO2 levels
causes
Building of these structures require a lot of fuel to be burnt which emits a large amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Methane is more than 20 times as effectual as CO2 at entrapping heat in the atmosphere. Methane is obtained from resources such as rice paddies, bovine flatulence, bacteria in bogs and fossil fuel manufacture. When fields are flooded, anaerobic situation build up and the organic matter in the soil decays, releasing methane to the atmosphere. The main sources of nitrous oxide include nylon and nitric acid production, cars with catalytic converters, the use of fertilizers in agriculture and the burning of organic matter. Another cause of global warming is deforestation that is caused by cutting and burning of forests for the purpose of residence and industrialization

more and more cause of global warming monster.....hehehe
Pictures
i think this is a nice picture....Try To Be Responsible...
Hot!!!
Hot weather will cause us to get sick easily and will slow down our body defense systems against bacteria. We might fall into fever or gain headache always and this will slow down our daily activities. Beside that, harmful sun rays that come directly to the surface of the earth also will cause skin cancer to human beings. I think this is the reason why our government always launch series of programs that can born a new green earth so that the temperature can be reduce day by day. Hoping by doing so, our earth can last even longer and keep on providing a shield to human beings.
happy holidays....

what causes global warming.......
Other than that, still under human activity which is indirectly cause to this phenomena is by driving cars and other vehicles which is using coal-fired power plants. When the vehicle use coal-fired power plants it will release CO2 and other heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere. This will made the atmosphere get hotter and lead to global warming.
Deforestation is another significant which lead to this phenomena. By destroying the flora and fauna it make the UV is straight away head the earth because trees as a saver from the uv were destroyed. This make the earth get heated and hotter which also lead to global warming.
As the amounts of the green house gases grows,more heat trapped in the atmosphere and less escapes back into space. This increase in trapped heat changes the climate and alters weather patterns which lead to global warming.
During 150 years of the industrial age, the atmospheric concentration of co2 has increased by 31 percent. Over the same period,the level of atmospheric methane has risen by 151 percent, mostly from agricultural activities such s raising cattle.

"Safe Our Planet"
Do you all notice that weather nowadays is getting hotter compared to the past? For your information, we call these phenomena as the global warming effect. I'm sure that many people heard this before but do they really understand what is the real effect of global warming to human kind and our beloved planet? Today, me and my partners will explain a little bit about global warming to everyone of you and hoping by doing so, we can create awareness among everyone to safe our planet from being destroyed before is too late. Actually, the meaning of global warming effect refers to the documented chronological warming of the Earth's surface based upon international temperature records that have been continued by humans since the early aged. The surface of the earth has always been warmed from solar radiation and the "greenhouse effect." This has caused ice from Atlantic has been melting seriously. The atmosphere is like a greenhouse in that it traps the heat, but is does so in a different way. "Greenhouse gases" absorb some of the radiant energy from the sun and some of the warmth from the Earth and re-radiates some of it out into space and some back to the Earth. Studies had showed that the sea level continued to increase continuously for the 20th century of about 1.7 mm per year. Measurements show that the 2007 global averaged sea level is about 20 cm higher than the 1870 estimate. Modern satellite measurements show that since 1993 global averaged sea level has been rising at about 3 mm per year and if this continues to happen, it will definitely endanger our life and bring a lot of trouble to our life.
