The "Climate Change And Global Warming"
article, by Anup Shah, posted on Monday, April 2, 2012, focuses on the
effects of global warming. It's claiming throughout a number of periods
of times that global warming has affected greatly, and caused a great
amount of damage to ecosystems, weathers, biodiversity, and many more.
As
stated in the article, "Rapid global warming can affect an ecosystems
chances to adapt naturally." I agree with this quote, partially because
ecosystems do have
a tendency of having a hard time to adapt to a sudden climate change.
For instance, since global warming has affected the Arctic region,
organisms have some difficulty adapting to the rising temperatures and
the melting polar ice caps.
In Biology class, I've learned about
ecosystems and communities. Global warming is affecting them because the
climate is starting to rise up in temperature, so some organisms that
inhabit rather cold regions will have to adapt to this change. One day, I
was reading a book and an example of global warming sprang up.It
mentioned that large communities of organisms migrated to colder regions
because factories sprouted up and polluted the air and increased the
temperature drastically, too much for the communities to handle all at
once. Also, my class and I watched the movie "The Lorax" in class, and
an entire ecosystem was diminished because of factories and pollution of
the air, making it utterly impossible to live
peacefully in these conditions.
I have just one question for
humans out there: What is your opinion on global warming? Do you support
creating more factories and such, but destroying ecosystems? Or are you
against it entirely? I am against it, in my opinion. It is essential to
have factories, I will admit, but we should only have them for needed
reasons. We shouldn't be going out there and deforesting entire states
and countries, just to build a few simple factories. I believe that
there should be factories, but made in a better way so that if we do end
up harming the environment in a way, it's very miniscule.
