| Summary: | Global warming and Climate change is defying our generation in this century. Both mankind and nature contribute to the global warming. However, the evidence has shown that the warming we are currently witnessing is largely due to the human forcing. The changes taking place in the environment affects the human health. The signs of global warming are becoming ever more prominent. The average pattern of weather, called climate, usually remains uniform for centuries if it is left to itself. However, the Earth is not being left alone. People are taking multi-dimensional actions that are gradually changing the morphology, physiology, and anatomy of the planet Earth and its climate in large scale. The climate change not only affects the marine environment, but also affects sea temperatures, ocean acidification, Green house gases, sea level rise, and changes in currents, upwelling and weather patterns, fundamental changes. These impacts may not be evident right away, but in near future they will affect our planet drastically. In this paper, the importance of Biodiversity in the environment and the effects of global climate change have been discussed. The paper will explore the impact of global warming and ways to reduce the global warming. Keywords : Global warming; Climate change; Weather; Greenhouse gases . |
