Climate Change

Today, I want to talk about the topic climate change because I want to focus the eyes of the people on our world environmental issues and not only in Malaysia. As a member of this earth, we should concern our earth's environmental problem, solve it together and also protect our earth.

First of all, everyone of us should have to know what is climate change, how it happen and also its solution to reduce the speed of climate change happen. Climate change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns when that change lasts for an extended period of time. The current warming trend is of particular significance because most of it very likely human-induced and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented in the past 1,300 years. The average temperature of the Earth's surface has increased by about 0.85 degree celcius or 1.4F in the pass 100 years.

This is the few evidence for rapid change is compelling :
1. Sea level rise
2. Global temperature rise
3. Warming oceans
4. Shrinking ice sheets
5. Declining Arctic sea ice
6. Glacial retreat
7. Extreme events
8. Ocean acidification
9. Decreased snow covered

These evidence also prove that it is the effect to our earth, nowadays people are not very concern about this topic and also it can make more serious problem day by day to our Earth.
And now, you all should know how climate change can happened and we solve it together to save our Earth. The climate change problem problem happened actually is caused by the greenhouse effect, mainly carbon dioxide.

Scientists believe that gases released from industry and agriculture (known as emissions) are adding to the nature greenhouse effect, the way the Earth's atmosphere traps some of the  energy from the Sun. Human activities such as burning fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas are increasing the amount of carbon dioxide, the main greenhouse gas responsible for global warming. Carbon-absorbing are also being cut down.

On August 3, 2015, President Obama and EPA announced the Clean Power Plan, that is a historic and important step in reducing carbon pollution from power plants that taken real action on climate change. Shaped by years of unprecedented outreach and public engagement,the final Clean Power Plan is fair, flexible and designed to strengthen the fast-growing trend toward cleaner and lower-polluting American energy. With strong but achievable standards for power plants and customized goals for states to cut the carbon pollution that is driving climate change. The Clean Power Plan provides national consistency, accountability and a level playing field while reflecting each state's energy mix.

The purpose to suggest to post this article actually I want to alert everyone of us to protect our Earth, not only start with plan but we do it and remind ourselves. Stop burning, Earth is our home, our shelter, the protection start with you and me right now.
