levels and dangerous threats towards coastal cities. Hurricanes and typhoons pummel wet‚ hot climates such as the U.S. Gulf coast‚ the eastern seaboard and parts of Southeast Asia. The cities and infrastructures that we built in the past are deteriorating‚ clearly not created for the purpose of survival in this foreign climate. It is too little too late for the political sphere to attempt to make changes. They have ignored the warnings my colleagues and me have been begging them to give due attention

The infectious diseases have been emphasized in two major classifications which are the water and the foodborne infectious diseases as well as the vector borne infectious diseases. Even if the global warming is not easy to solve‚ there are some methods should be taken to mitigate this phenomenon. The study has shown that the global warming has various negative effects on human health including infectious diseases.

of environmental changes. These changes on the geography of the Earth within such a small time frame are unheard of‚ and may be irreversible. Climate change has a wide range of adverse effects on the natural world and manmade systems. The main concerns are the risks posed on the Earths geophysical and ecological processes. Many causes influence climate change with the main cause being increased atmospheric greenhouse gases. Other major causes include deforestation‚ land-use changes‚ and chlorofluorcarbons

Climate change Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in average weather conditions‚ or in the distribution of weather around the average conditions (i.e.‚ more or fewer extreme weather events). Climate change is caused by factors that include oceanic processes (such as oceanic circulation)‚ variations in solar radiation received by Earth‚ plate tectonics and

Traditional methods of power generation have created a legacy of acid rain‚ oil spills and - despite billions of pounds of research - nuclear waste‚ issues all of which need to be tackled. That price never appears on the quarterly bill. Renewable energy comes from sources that will remain sustainable long after fossil fuels become scarce.

1 CLIMATE CHANGE I have decided to talk about climate change for my first topic – as the weather at the moment is changing. There has been a hurricane overseas and we are getting some of it so the winds are very strong they say it can be up to 70mph some airports have been shut. Windy rainy days but still very humid. Sunny and windy days but cold. Climate measures the average pattern of variation in temperature‚ humidity‚ atmospheric pressure‚ wind‚ precipitation. Climate is different from weather

Topic: “There is nothing that we as individuals can do to prevent climate change”. During last several decades‚ industrialization and human activities have produced greenhouse gases (mainly carbon dioxide). These gases make the earth’s temperature higher that leads to more serious events‚ such as ice smelting‚ floods‚ storms and droughts. This is called “climate change”. Climate change would have significant impacts on environment‚ economy and the way we live so it needs to be prevented. In my
