GLOBAL WARMING
average temperature of Earth’s nearsurface air and the oceans. IPCC(intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) report: global surface temperature 0.74 ± 0.18 0 C (1.33 ± 0.32 [100 years ending in 2005]
0
F)
1.1 6.4 0 C (2.0 11.5 0 F) during 21st century
Causes: 1. Air polution
Industrial gas
Causes: 1. Air polution
Causes: 2. Destroy forest
Destroy forest
Forest fire
Explain why the global become warmer
Effects of global warming? 1. Increase frequency and intensity of inclement weather heat & drought Severity of storms Rainfall Floods
Heat killed 750 people in Chicago, 1995
More than 52,000 Europeans died from heat in summer 2003.
2003 was hottest summer in 500 years. (> 104 0 F)
Death from heat was more 19 times than death from SARS in 2003 (severe acute respiratory syndrome)
Dry earth in the Sonora desert, Mexico.
Animal and tree were died.
Dust storm, Queensland Australia, 2005
Ice melted, disrupted
2100 SOURCE: Susmita Dasgupta, et al,
2008
Funafuti, Tuvalu, only 4 meters high in South Pacific, threatened by sea level rise, 2005
Extra high tide floods neighborhood, Funafuti, Tuvalu, 2005
Extra high tide floods road, Funafuti, Tuvalu, 2005
tsunami
1/2 a second before tsunami The column water rise > 7 m
Their faces were terrify from the Tsuna mi
This was what left behind Tsunami
Super –cell thunderstorm over Arizona, 2002
Most recent experience of American.
New Orleans, city was unprepared for the flooding that followed the storm (Katrina). The entire city was drowned in the water
Spread of some diseases:
Dengue fever Cholera . Malaria
Global warming was not only affect on people, but also harm other species Researcher predict about 18 -35% sample 1,103 animal & plant species would extinct by 2050.
Global warming caused much damages for social and economy.
