The Pros And Cons Of Polar Ice Glaciers

The melting of the polar ice caps and glaciers produce negative effects on environment and humans, including habitat destruction and disruption of animal lives. The ice glaciers are slowly melting over time resulting a rise of sea-level. The cause for the sea-level increasing is global warming. The planet’s heat is increasing slowly over time creating the ice glaciers to melt more and more. The global warming is increasing the sea-level resulting more dangerous storms, and causing extinction to certain species. By being harmless to the environment and eco friendly, Global Warming can be reduced. The benefits of being eco friendly are saving money, decreasing harm, and living in a safe environment.
The first benefit is saving money. By being harmless to the environment, global warming can be reduced because Power Plants, the source of electricity, releases carbon dioxide, which damages our ozone layer. According to Steve Conner’s article “Melting Glaciers Are Caused by Man-made Global Warming”, there is a lag response of several decades which means that we are only seeing a fraction of the total anthropogenic effects on melting glaciers that we will eventually see as a result of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere now (Conner 2). There are many ways people can save money by being harmless and eco friendly. Many stores sell eco friendly products such as energy saving light bulbs, which use less energy than a normal light bulb and cost less. Another way of being eco friendly save people money is by basically using less energy with the same potential of a normal product, but for a cheaper cost. By using less energy we are protecting our environment by not releasing as much carbon dioxide caused by
When more greenhouse gas like carbon dioxide and methane are released, they trap heat rays and keep them in our atmosphere. This causes an increase in temperature. Increases
