A theory, that the inflammation of "greenhouse" gases will produce a "greenhouse effect" keeping the
Earth's temperature up. It's a really good cause, to prevent this from happening, but most
people do not know that in Washington D.C., (my
teacher told us this) the
people are lobbying the oil, so that we always need to use the oil because of the
money involved. And that's what it's all about.
Money. If it weren't for those lobbyers, (I
hope I spelled that right) we could switch to something that would prevent global warming from happening. But no. It's all about
money. Doesn't anyone care about what will happen if we don't prevent this global warming, also known as climate change, from happening? Some things that may happen are the following:
The depletion of the ozone layer
Glaciers will melt because of the temperature increase since the Industrial Revolution. Over the last 100 years, the temperature has increased approximately 0.6 Fahrenheit. Over the last 4 decades, the arctic ice pack has lost about 40 percent of its thickness.
Some ski resorts would have to resort to making their own
snow. Ski resorts would have to have shorter seasons and in southern Ontario, the length of the ski season would be cut in half by 2080.
In the near future, the sea level would rise 55 meters.
The melting of the polar ice caps.
Many, many species in Australia's Great Barrier Reef will
die out because of a few degrees of climate increase.
