The greenhouse gases are heating up the earth.It is a non-disputed fact that with the penetrating of industrialization the emission of large quantities of greenhouse gases(mainly the carbon dioxide) has led to the global warming and climate changes.According to the latest survey,an unexpected sea-level rise of 1.9 meters might take place at the end of this century.If so,Tuvalu,an island country of the South Pacific,would be the first to be swallowed up by the sea.
The greenhouse effect,a warm keeping effect,is formed due to the lack
of heat exchange between the sunlight-through closed space and the
outside,and the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere,a piece of thick
glass-like,makes the earth a large greenhouse.It is estimated that
the average surface temperature would drop to —23℃ if there was no
atmosphere.
The greenhouse gases are heating up the earth,and their serious consequences are as follows:
1) More Plant Diseases and Insect Pests;
2) Sea-Level Rise;
3) Freak weather,More Ocean Storms;
4) Dry Land,Desertification Area Increase.
Scientists' Forecast:If the earth's surface temperature keeps rising at its current rate,some island countries and coastal cities-including New York、Shanghai、Tokyo and Sydney will be swallowed up.
