When said “Global Warming”, it is understood the process of the increase in the world’s temperature. With this way, a climate change has occurred. Because, with the increase in the temperature, evaporation increases; rains and currents of air change. Global warming should not be confused with the changes in the air occuring in uncertain times. For example, drying which occurs in uncertain times or any season of the year (for exp: winter drying in our country) or rainy summers in regions which are dry normally, is appreciated as “change in the air”, that is, it is not a change in the climate. For that reason, the systematic increase in the temperature of all around the world for the last 10-15 years has been estimated with metering since 1983. The warmest and the driest summers of the last century have existed in the last 8- 10 years. Some glacier melting events supports these results attained with estimating the temperature .For instance, secession of glaciers with such big pieces from the south pole that has not been seen up to now, rapid melting of Ireland glaciers for the last 30 years, the processes of melting like in Himalaya and Alps are the incontrovertible evident of the reality of “Global Warming”.
Climate activists, Lesley Butler and Rob Bell, are sunbathing in the pole city of Norway, near a freezing fiord. Activists pay attention to the fact that global warming will lead to melt in pole region seriously and this will make the sea water warm for swimming and sunbathing.
TEN SIMPLE CONTRIBUTIONS
You can do something to stop global warming. Here are ten simple contributions for decreasing carbon dioxide and counting how much you will provide carbon dioxide savings when you do this.
1- Change your light bulb: exchange your standard incandescent light bulb with an energy saving one, provide 75 kg. Carbon dioxide economy.
2- Drive less: walk much more than normal, ride bicycle and take care of using mass transportation vehicles. You will save 0.75 kg. Carbon dioxide for each 2 km that you do not drive.
3- Contribute recycling: You can save 200 kg. Carbon dioxide per a year only if you recycle half of the garbage of your home.
4- Control your tires: The way you drive will increase %3 with the well-proportioned pneumatic tire. Every 4 liter driving fuel saving get away 10 kg. Carbon dioxide from our atmosphere.
5- Use hot water less: It needs much energy for warming the water. You can save 175 kg. Carbon dioxide with a spreader consuming less water or bathing with lukewarm water, you can save 250 kg. Carbon dioxide.
6- Stay away from the products having lots of packs: You can save 600 kg. Carbon dioxide with decreasing your garbage at the percentage of 10.
7- Adjust your water heater: adjust your water heater 2 degree below in winter and 2 degree above in summer. You can save 1000 kg. Carbon dioxide per year with this simple adjustment.
8- Plant a tree: A tree absorbs a ton carbon dioxide for its lifespan.
9- Be a part for solution: In order to come into action and for detailed information please visit: 'www.iklimkrizi.net
10- Tell everyone: Tell everyone around you about global warming.
5 YEARS LEFT FOR SAVING THE WORLD
World Wildlife Fund (WWF) have warned that there are 5 years for climate change catastrophe in the world and authorities should come into action with decreasing carbon emission in order to reverse the course of events before 2012.
According to the news of sky news on the internet, authorized person of the firm, James Leape emphasized “In order to plant seeds of positive changes we have a little time span and this time is forthcoming 5 years.” And he added that we should not waste this time. It is stated in the report “vision for 2050”that unless authorities do this, coming generation will have difficulty for living because of the authorities’ weakness of coming into action.
Keith Allot, responsible of WWF’ England climate changes program, although climate change quality is daunting, this course of events can be stopped if taken action immediately.
TURKEY’S MAP WILL CHANGE
According to the report presented to TGNA (Turkish Grand National Assembly) global warming commission, global warming makes Turkey’s seas will rise, there will be floods in cities at coasts, natural diseases will increase…
SIZE OF THE DANGER IS VERY BIG!!!
Carbon dioxide rate is increasing, oceans are warming, glaciers are melting, forest fire is increasing, glacier layers are calving, lakes are getting smaller, drought periods are lengthening, and rivers are getting dry.
Temperature of winter is increasing, spring is coming earlier, autumn is becoming late, blooming is becoming late, emigration period is changing, living spaces are undergoing a change, shorelines are undergoing erosion, coral reefs are whitening, snow drifts are decreasing, blanket of clouds is drying, diseases is spreading, warmth is increasing in high latitudes, what is happening in the world?
According to the report, contamination in 1960 make %20 glaciers melts. According to the results of the research conducted by 300 scientists, warming in North Pole is twice faster than the other parts of the world. As for today’s warming, it will concede the world without glaciers in 2070, global desertification will take place, and sea level will increase.
World will come to an irreversible point in 10 years because of global warming. Desertification will occur owing to deforestation, and this will reflect to agriculture, sea level will increase and world will be caught in the toils of epidemic diseases. This disaster scenario is “frightening” but “real”.
THE HISTORY OF REAL DANGER IS CLOSER THAN IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE
The history of real danger is closer than it is supposed to be.
Here, assessed with important studies, the date which Turkey will enter water crisis:
According to the data of World Wildlife Fund, Turkey will be water-poor country in 2030. According to the studies , %20 of the world are faced with water famine, Turkey takes place among these countries which gives danger signal, too.
Scientists reckon the countries in which individual water rate is 1000-2000 cubic meter as having difficulty in water supplies. Now, individual water rate is 1430 cubic meter in Turkey, but it will deteriorate to 1100 cubic meter in 2030. Among 30 countries which will have difficulty in water supplies and where %20 people of the world are living, Turkey will take place, too. While the most important reason for drought is shown as global warming, %88 of agricultural irrigation done with superficial method which is almost called as wild is effective in drought, too. While illicit water usage in both agricultural irrigation and urban area is almost %50, this rate is %20 in the developed Western countries. Global warming will show its biggest effect in 21th century. Meetings about the effects of global warming are being done all around the world. Researches about how destroying effects can be slowed down are being done.
Sea levels will increase with global warming. Returning cannot be possible 10 years later. Our planet is ceasing to exist day by day with greenhouse effect. There is a shield surrounding our planet. This shield consists of nitrogen and hydrogen. This shield is destroyed because of CO2 (carbon dioxide) and CH4 (marsh gas). In an article, published by Professor Chris Thomas from Leeds University, it is stated that “Global warming will annihilate 1 million or one forth of the plant and animal species until 2050.While Thomas emphasizes that vehicles and factories are the biggest factors, he also cited pervasive gases makes average temperature increase in a level that was not seen in the past. And he pays attention unless a solution is produced, extinction of species come to the level which was not seen in the past.
According to the data in 1992, 12.5 million species have been living on earth. It is predicted that the speed of these species’ becoming extinct because of people 100 and 1000 times quicker than their natural extinction. It is estimated that if this aptitude continues, % 50 of existing species will disappear within 50 or 100 years. Today % 20 of bird species- that means 1000 species- has come to the extinction. Because food chain’s breaking for ones will cause unbelievable results, extinction of some species will affect the other living species directly, too.
Word food production has become dependent to limited plant species day by day. Fish stocks of G are consumed completely; L stocks are becoming extinct because of over consume and U stocks have lost its fertility because of over consume. Acid in oceans has increased because of carbon dioxide crowded in oceans. This is an occasion which affects the lives of fishes directly. It is seen that corals, all of which are carbon absorption machines, are disappearing slowly. Such an occasion can cause the broken of carbon chain in nature and owing to this, amount of carbon dioxide emission will increase in an unbelievable rate.
According to the researches, average temperature of the earth surface has increased 0.6 °C through 20th century, temperature at the bottom part of the atmosphere has risen in the late 40 years, and blanket of snow and getting icy has decreased at a rate of …
According to the scientists’ researches glacier of Kilimanjaro, formed with an air wave which affected Africa 11700 years before, is becoming to melt. In an article published in Science magazine, it is said that “Kilimanjaro’s white hat will disappear in 2020 according to satellite data”. Kilimanjaro ice layer which is said to disappear is the main source nourishing the rivers of Tanzania even now. It has been predicted that almost half of the world’s population will face with drought in 2025.
