...devices and equipments in our residential areas and offices that ease energy requirements. We can also get rid of the old coal burning power plants and restore them with cleaner plants for generating electricity. Increased use of renewable sources of energy such as the sun and wind will help in this. Interestingly, some states have already embraced such techniques, on one hand; California obliges its largest utilities to acquire 290 % of their electricity from the renewable energy sources by the year 2017. On the other hand, New York has promised to force power companies to supply twenty-five percent of the state’s electricity from renewable energy sources by 2013. How we cut global...

...). Temperature rise can affect the wildlife in two different ways. Some animals may require cold weather for their survival whereas some other animals may require warm weather for their survival. Atmospheric temperature rise may result in melting of ice from the Polar Regions. Polar bears may suffer from that since ice is the hunting ground for the polar beers. “Polar bears hunt their prey, predominantly ringed seals, from the ice” (Polar Bears and the Impacts of Global Warming, 2011). Melting of ice may force ringed seals to escape from the polar region and subsequently polar bears may not get enough food. On the other hand water temperature rise, as...

...warming, what the effects and consequences are, and how global warming can be prevented. Global warming Brief history of global warming Global warming may seem to many people like a modern day concern, an event that our current generation has brought upon itself. However, scientists and researchers have been following the steady progress of global warming since the 1800s. During the first Industrial Revolution, it was recorded that the coal, railroads, and the clearing of forests for various factories were causing greenhouse gas...

...-levels; although the co-relation between the two is still largely challenged. However, it is interesting to note that the fact that the rise in carbon dioxide levels leads to warming of the planet cannot be and is not dismissed, even by the skeptics. These points mentioned above offer a substantial base to claim with fair accuracy and conviction that global warming is not a man-made crisis but a crisis which has arisen due to human activities, and is indeed very much real.

Global warming is a reality. It causes changes in Earth's atmosphere that affect temperature, precipitation, glacial melting, rapid freezing and defrosting of rivers and lakes, sea levels, storm intensity, seasonal changes, human health, and much more. As global warming progresses, the world will see more of these changes take place, and they will increase in severity, possibly to catastrophic proportions. Just how severe these changes are will depend on the course of nature, and on whether or not the human race chooses to take measures to prevent or at least slow the development of global...

In addition, the breeding environments for waterfowl in the prairie pothole region of north Iowa and central Alberta has been adversely affected due to rising temperatures in the springs. Animals often move into new habitats whenever their current habitats become elusive to their survival. However, the current human population limits this movement since land that would otherwise have been suitable in accommodation
