    1. THE AFFECTS OF THE USE OFFUEL

    Fuel is bad for the environment.

    Fuel is toxic and can pollute the air.

    Affects the health of living things.

    Fuel is really bad for the environment. It releases toxinsuch as CO2 in the air. Thus, polluting the air. CO2 is a

    greenhouse gas that traps in the suns energy

    causing the temperature in the earth to raise.

    As the temperature of earth continue to rise, theglaciers melt and the ocean current changes.

    Eventually, this can result to the end of the world.

    Not only does fuel pollute the air, but also our bodies too. Thecarbon and hydrogen can enter our bodies and harm us. If you

    inhale too much fuel, it will be harmful to you health. It cancause many diseases such as lung diseases.

    2.THE AFFECTS OF

    LITTERING

    Litter is a breeding ground for disease-causing

    insects and rodents.

    Litter can slowly travel into the ocean or nearby

    lakes and rivers.

    Litter can kill many living things including fishes

    and other living things we consider as food.

    7/19

    Most of our litter is from food such as food wrappers.

    They attract bugs and insects that might or might not

    contain spreadable deseases.

    Litter can slowly travel into nearby lakes and rivers

    polluting the water that we drink.

    9/19

    Litter thats lying around can get caught on an animal

    near by. It can hurt the animal by getting caught on its

    mouth or neck making it unable to eat or breath.

    3. THE AFFECTS OF FOREST FIRES

    Destroys many trees.

    Many damages caused by forest fires cannotrecover on its own.

    Releases a lot of carbon and toxin into the air.

  • 8/8/2019 The Impact of Global Warming in the Present[1]

    11/19

    Many trees were destroyed by forest fires. Over100,000 acres of trees were burned down by forest

    fires in the years 2002-2003

  • 8/8/2019 The Impact of Global Warming in the Present[1]

    12/19

    A lot of the destroyed land caused by forest fires areunable to recover or will take years to return to its

    original form.

  • 8/8/2019 The Impact of Global Warming in the Present[1]

    13/19

    Forest fires lasts for many hours. During those hours, it

    releases carbon from the fire and pollute the air for

    many miles.

    4. FUTURE LIFE ON EARTH

    There will be less precipitation, maybe even a

    drought. The sea level will increase

    There will be an increase in the carbon dioxide

    concentration in the atmosphere.

  • 8/8/2019 The Impact of Global Warming in the Present[1]

    15/19

    Due to the rise in temperature it is very likely that there

    will be less rain and possible a drought.

  • 8/8/2019 The Impact of Global Warming in the Present[1]

    16/19

    As the temperature rises, the sea level will increase with

    it. The predicted increase of the sea level is 9 to 88

    cm.

  • 8/8/2019 The Impact of Global Warming in the Present[1]

    17/19

    Due to the air pollution from gasses and fires, the

    amount of carbon dioxide concentration in the

    atmosphere will be increased.

    CONCLUSION

    In conclusion, I think global warming will havea great impact on our life. If the pollution of air,

    water, and land continue, earth will be in such abad condition that living things wont be able tosurvive. We have to conserve energy, use publictransportation instead of driving your own car

    (using less gas), stop littering, and try to preventany hazards things that will harm the earth inorder to prevent global warming.
