全球变暖英语作文
作文一
People around the world may feel that the climate has been getting steadily warmer and warmer in recent years. Places which used to be abundant in snowfall have frequently experienced snowfree winters. Drought lasts longer in some dry areas. People find that without air conditioners they could hardly work or fall asleep on hotter summer days.
The side effects of global warming are alarminS. A warmer global climate melts the ice caps, raising sea levels. What is more, it disturbs weather patterns, causing droughts, severe storms, hurricanes. People suffer a lot from disasters relevant to global warming.
To stop global warming we should make immediate and continual efforts. We hope the situation will soon change. Global warming catches and holds our concern, for it affects us and will affect our later generations. We cannot wait any longer. Do it. Do it right. Do it right now.

Environmental Protection
No one,regardless of race, religion or nationality, can deny that the world we live in is becoming increasingly intolerable because of the effects of global warming. According to many experts, even greater impacts are still on the way.
There are numerous causes for this problem. On one hand, human-related emissions of carbon into the atmosphere is causing, and will in the future cause, significant global warming according to the theory. On the other hand, the lack of knowledge about the importance of protecting environment hinders the solving of the problem.
It is urgent that immediate and effective actions should be taken right away. First, more trees need to be planted to help improve and beautify the environment. Besides, stricter laws concerning global warming and irresponsible use of fuel resources have to be put into effect and achieved good results. In a word, there is a long way to go before we can take a comfortable world for granted again .

With the development of economy, more and more greenhouse gases are being discharged into the air. CO2 makes up about 70% of the greenhouse gases, which is considered to be one of the greatest causes of global warming. It has harmful effects, causing the sea level to rise and many natural disasters to strike. So we must take effective measures to save our planet. First, we should use more clean energy and less coal and oil. Second, we should go to work on foot or by bus instead of driving a car if possible. Third, we should plant more trees, because plants can turn CO2 into oxygen. More importantly, we should form the habit of saving energy in our daily life.
作文四
Ladies and gentlemen,
Good morning, I am Li Hua from Tianjin, China . It’s my great honor to be here to talk about the global warming problem and ways of dealing with it.
Lately , global warming is becoming a serious problem. Several factors contribute to it. First of all, a lot of greenhouse gas is produced by cars and factories; furthermore, the loss of forests is another cause of global warming.
Global warming will cause some harmful effects. Firstly, some islands will disappear because of the rise of sea level. Secondly, extreme weather results from global warming. When temperature rises, the production of crops will decrease. Besides, some animals and plants will disappear, thus destroying the ecosystem.
So we should protect the earth from greenhouse gases. We should plant trees and reduce the amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Hope our earth can become better and better.
That’s all. Thank you.

To Control the Global Warming
During the late 20 century, global warming became more and more bothering to human beings.
Nowadays, it is commonly acknowledged that to maintain permanent peace and development, environmental problems must be solved with highest priority. In my opinion, to control global warming, government should carry out sensible policies and common people also should take their resibonsibilities.
I can remember big snow came every year when I was a child, and the weather was so cold that I couldn‘t go outdoors without my scarf and hat. But these years, big snows are hard to see, and even in December, you needn’t wear too much because it’s not cold at all. The climate is changing. In the past decades, global warming arouse many countries attention and they do took some measures to ease this problem. However, though the Kyoto Protocol was signed, some countries are not willing to hold their pace of economic development. To drive the global warming under control, we still have a long way to go.
Governments are the main force in the combat against global warming. On the issues concerning global warming, the variety of attitudes toward global warming is a greatest obstacle for us to win this combat. So, at first, all the countries must reach an agreement on striking a balance between developing economy and solving this environmental problem. Then, some effective policies should be adopted to reduce the emission of the greenhouse gases.
Common people's involvements are the key to ease the global warming. One persons ablity is slight, but if every one can make a little effort, the achivement will be incredible. What can we do for it? I think first, we can learn something about global warming, to be aware of it and to know our resiponsiblities to this planet. In addition, we can should not to make greenhouse gases, specificlly, to take bus or ride bicycle instead of driving private car.
If we human beings can make joint effort to take care of this planet. I think global warming will certainly be solved in the near future.

THE CRISIS OF GLOBAL WARMING
Background: 全球变暖
Cause: 温室气体排放,其中大约70%为二氧化碳.
consequence : 海平面上升 自然灾害频繁
measures: 1节约家用电器 2少用机动车辆 3.植树造林
词数120个
Global warming has become one of the biggest environmental concerns for people all over the world.
With the development of economy, the emission of the greenhouse gas, consisting of about 70% carbon dioxide, has been steadily increased, contributing greatly to the global warming. The increase in the temperature of the earth has caused many harmful effects. It melts the ice caps, raising sea levels. It disturbs weather patterns, causing frequent natural disasters such as floods, droughts, severe storms, hurricanes (飓风), and so on.
Actually, it’s easy for everyone to do something to save energy and reduce the emission of
greenhouse gas. For example, turn off an electrical appliance if it is not used. Walking, cycling, carpooling or using public transportation instead of using motor vehicles are all good ways to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide.
We are also supposed to plant trees and preserve forests. Every individual counts and individuals together makes a big difference.

(就素材号召同学们行动起来积极应对地球变暖)
Dear fellow students,
It is reported that the average temperature within the Arctic Circle has risen by 2—3 degrees Celsius in the past ten years. At the Copenhagen Climate Summit 2009 all nations were required to reduce the greenhouse gas emission to save the earth. At the beginning of 2010, extremely cold weather hit Asia, Europe, and North America, which is the evidence of global warming.
As is known to all, our environment has been worsening due to human activities. If we don’t take effective measures now, human beings will not be able to survive in the future. If we can save energy, recycle waste and plant more trees, we can make the earth a better place. So let’s take action from now on! let’s save the earth.
作文八
Ladies and Gentlemen,
Good morning. I’m Li Hua from Fujian, China. It’s my great honor to be here to say something about the global water shortage and ways of dealing with it.
As we know, the global water shortage is becoming increasingly sever mainly due to global warming, environmental pollution and the ever-increasing population. Therefore, it’s high time we did something about it.
Firstly, an effective way, I think, is to reserve water in a scientific way for future use. Secondly, new methods need to be developed to use the existing waster resources, for example, turning sea water into fresh water. Thirdly, we must stoop water pollution by law. Last but not least, it’s everyone’s responsibility to make good use of water, such as recycling and saving water in our daily life.
In conclusion, people around the world should be aware of the real situation of water shortage, protect the present water resources and explore potential ones scientifically.
作文九
global warming and our life
Global warming has quickly become one of the most heated issues. With the development of the economy, the emission of the green house gas, consisting of about 70% carbon dioxide, has been increased, attributing greatly to the global warming.
Global warming is the slow and steady increase in the temperature of earth and its atmosphere. The increase in the temperature of earth has caused many effects like the melting of ice in Polar Regions, increase in disease occurrences, drastic climatic changes and rise of the sea level.
As the effects of global warming is becoming more and more evident, many of us have started to realize that steps have to be taken to control Global warming, such as the usage of clean energy resources and the alternative of motor.
作文十
One possible version:
Dear editor,
The curtain went down on the Copenhagen climate summit, leaving the world concerned more about global warming once again.
As is well known, it is human activity that has contributed to this problem. The burning of fossil fuels like coal, natural gas and oil produces greenhouse gases. When huge quantities of extra carbon dioxide are put into the atmosphere, more heat energy tends to be trapped in it causing the global temperature to go up.
However, the attitudes of scientists towards this rise are completely different. On the one hand, it’s predicted that there may be a rise of several metres in the sea level, extreme climate change or the disappearance of species. On the other hand, it’s supposed that the rise will make plants grow quicker and produce more, thus encouraging a greater range of animals.
It seems that the topic is controversial and there is a long way to go.
篇二:《全球变暖原因 英文》
Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the
Earth's near-surface air and oceans in recent decades and its projected continuation.Some of the reasons for global warming, mainly divided into two aspects of both human factors and natural factors:
Human Factors:
1、Population factors
In recent years, the dramatic increase in population is one of the main factors that contribute to global warming. At the same time, it also
seriously threatens the balance between natural ecological environment. So many people, only their own emissions of carbon dioxide each year will be a staggering Numbers, the result will lead to make the content of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere directly increase unceasingly, this
form of carbon dioxide "greenhouse effect" will directly affect the earth's surface climate change.
2、Atmospheric environmental pollution factors
At present, the increasingly serious environmental pollution has constituted a major global problem, is also one of the main factors that contribute to global warming. Now, on global climate change research has clearly pointed out that since the end of last century had started to rise the temperature of the earth's surface.
3、Marine ecological environment deterioration factors
At present, the change of sea level is continuously rising, according to experts predict the next century, sea level could rise 50 cm. If you don't take on the measures, will directly cause the destruction of freshwater resources and pollution. In addition, land activities to produce large
amounts of toxic chemical waste and solid waste constantly into the sea; Major in sea water in the oil (leak) events and caused by human activities
such as coastal areas such as the destruction of the ecological
environment is the main factor that leads to the ecological environment destruction.
4、Land erosion, salinization, desertification and other factors
Land erosion, salinization, desertification and other factors, human activities such as for wood and deforestation, cultivated land used for agricultural production and overgrazing reason, is still a serious damage to vegetation. The world per minute on average 20 hectares of forest are destroyed, 10 hectares of land desertification, 47000 tons of soil erosion. Soil erosion decreased soil fertility and water retention, thus reducing the biological productivity of the soil and its ability to maintain
productivity; And can cause a wide range of floods and dust storms, causing great economic losses to the society, and the worsening ecological environment.
5、The forest resources in factors
Around the world, because of natural or man-made factors causing forest area is greatly reduced.
6、Acid rain harm factors
The effects of acid rain to the ecological environment has become more and more attention all over the world. Acid rain can destroy forest, acidification lakes, endanger biological, etc. At present, the acid rain in the world more concentrated in Europe and North America, most of the acid rain occurred in developed countries, some developing countries, acid rain, also in the occurrence and development rapidly.
7.、Factors accelerate extinctions
Life on earth is a valuable human resources, and biodiversity is the foundation of human survival and development. But now the biological species on the earth are shrinking at an unprecedented rate.
8、 Water pollution factors
According to the global environment monitoring system for water quality monitoring project shows that about 10% of the global monitoring of the pollution of the river, since this century, the human water
consumption is dramatically increased, at the same time, water pollution, scale is continually expanding, this creates a contradiction between supply and demand of fresh water. Therefore, the treatment of water pollution is very urgent and important.
9、 Toxic waste pollution factors
Growing toxic chemicals not only pose a serious threat to human
survival, but also to the ecological environment of the earth's surface will lead to harm.
10、Human activities
Since the industrial revolution, human activities widely changed the shape of the earth's surface and the distribution of plants and animals, especially the extensive use of fossil fuels and other ways to discharge a large amount of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. This makes the original content of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere of increased; Also added some originally not in the atmosphere, has strong
greenhouse gases, such as CFCS and HFCS, PFCS [2]. With the increase of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere, atmosphere further hindered the launch of the long wave radiation, the earth into space to keep the radiation balance, will heat up on the ground, in order to enhance longwave radiation. But the surface temperature will not
continue to rise, corresponding to the concentration of greenhouse gases, will reach a new equilibrium.
Natural Factors
1、The world is in a warm period.
2、The earth periodic track changes
The earth periodic track by oval into circular trajectory, distance closer to the sun. According to some scientists study the earth's
temperature has a moderate high low temperature alternating, there is a certain regularity.
The China meteorological administration, deputy director of the national climate center, said luo according to many scientists predict that in the world in the next 50-100 human will completely into a warming world. Because of the influence of human activity in the 21st century, the concentration of greenhouse gases and sulphate aerosols increase quickly, make the future of the world in 100, east Asia and China's
temperature is rising rapidly, the global average surface temperature to rise 1.4 ℃ to 5.8 ℃. To 2050, the average temperatures would rise by
2.2 ℃.
"Frequent rare heavy fog weather since winter is also a sign of warmer winters." Luo said that the fog weather is due to "warm winter" cause strong cold air is very weak. The reality of global warming is to ring alarm bells around the world, climate warming has the serious
influence to human survival and sustainable development of society, it is not only a matter of science, and it is a political, economic, energy and
other aspects of the comprehensive problem, the fact that global warming has risen to the height of national security

篇四:《Global warming全球变暖全英文介绍》
One of the effects of global warming is the destruction of many important ecosystems.Changing and erratic climate conditions will put our ecosystems to the test, the increase in carbon dioxide will increase the problem.
The evidence is clear that global warming and climate change affects physical and biological systems. There will be effects to land, water, and life. Already today, scientists are seeing the effects of global warming on coral reefs, many have been bleached and have died. This is due to warmer ocean waters, and to the fact that some species of plants and animals are simply migrating to better suited geographical regions where water temperatures are more suitable.
Melting ice sheets are also making some
animals migrate to better regions. This effects the ecosystems in which these plants and animals live.
Several climate models have been made and they predict more floods (big floods), drought, wildfires, ocean acidification, and the eventual collapse of many ecosystems throughout the world both on land and at sea.
There have been forecasts of things like famine, war, and social unrest, in our days ahead. These are the types of effects global warming could have on our planet.
Another important effect that global warming will bring is the loss and endangerment of many species. Did you know that 30 percent of all plant and animal species alive in the world today are at risk of extinction by the year 2050 if average temperatures rise more than 2 to 11.5 degrees Fahrenheit.
These mass extinctions will be due to a loss of habitat through desertification, deforestation, and ocean warming. Many plants and animals will also be affected by the inability to adapt to our climate warming.
Some species will survive though because they will migrate to other parts of the world where they can survive. A good example of that happening is the red fox that has already done it. The red fox used to live mainly in North America, but has migrated now to the Arctic.
People like you and me are also in danger, people living in coastal areas will be badly hit if sea levels rise. Desertification will also be a problem for humans, food may become scarce.
One very disappointing effect of global warming is war and conflicts.
With a decline in the amounts of quality food, water, and land, it could bring an increase in global security threats, and war.
Take the country Sudan for example, in that region global warming has played an important role. There is conflict in Sudan, global warming is not the only cause, but it has played its part. The roots of the problem in Sudan can be traced back to climate change, and the scarcity of natural resources.
The conflict in Sudan started during a time of intense drought.
Scientists and military analysts are predicting that climate change and the devastation it causes could bring war and conflict. When sufficient amounts of water and food are running short that is when war can come about. What this brings to light is the fact that ecological crisis and violence are both linked.
Economic calamities are another effect that global warming could bring.
Take hurricane Katrina for example, one thing that climate change does is that it brings us more extreme storms like Katrina. Hurricane Katrina resulted in millions and millions of dollars in damage. When severe storms and floods occur, crops, homes, businesses, and more all fail, and that costs a lot of money, and it hurts the economy. When severe floods occur you also need to make sure that the threat of disease is controlled.
Hurrican Katrina resulted in 135$ billion in property damage. That really hurt the economy that year.
When severe weather does damage it can also raise the price of insurance, and this hurts the everyday person.
Cleaning up a disaster area also costs a lot of money. If too many extreme storms hit in a certain time frame the impact on the economy can be disastrous.
Drought is an effect of global warming that we are already seeing right now.
Many countries are finding that
they are currently receiving more storms and rising waters, while other countries are suffering from drought. As the climate of the Earth warms, experts from Scientific American predict that drought conditions could increase by as much as 66 percent. Drought will mean a shrinking water supply and a decrease in crops.
Drought can mean a danger for global food production and supply. This also mean that several countries experiencing drought could have a major famine on their hands.
Currently, India, Pakistan, and some parts of Africa are already experiencing droughts. It is sad to say but experts are predicting that it will get much worse.
One important effect global warming is having on our planet, is that it is producing more intense storms and floods. When you look at the scientific data concerning storms and floods in the last 30 years, you will see that category 4 and 5 hurricanes have nearly doubled in occurence.
What many people don't know or realize is that warm waters give hurricanes their strenght and power. Many scientists today are associating the increase in ocean and atmospheric temperatures to the rate of violent storms.
Between the years 1905 and 2005 the frequency of hurricanes has been on the rise. From 1905 to 1930 there were an average of 3.5 hurricanes per year, 5.1 between 1931 and 1994, and 8.4 between
1995 and 2005. In 2005 there was a record number of tropical storms that came about, and in 2007 the worst flooding in 60 years hit Britain. More recently, Australia has seen the worst flooding they have had in a long time.
Heat waves are also an effect of global warming.
It is no secret that temperatures are breaking records in the US and Canada and abroad. More extremely hot summer days are in store for North America and elsewhere if global warming continues unabated. Here are some heat waves facts for you: air pollution in urban areas could get worse with the increased heat. This could result in more people having heart attacts, strokes, and asthma attacks. Children, the elderly, poor, and people of color are more vulnerable to the effects of a heat wave.
Scientists have confirmed that the frequency and duration of heat waves has definitely increased by a lot over the last 50 years.
One obvious effect of global warming is the shrinking of glaciers, this is happening wherever there are glaciers worldwide.
Mountain glaciers have been in retreat for a long time now as global warming continues to effect us. What many people don't realize though is that it is happening more rapidly now then previously believed.
Glaciers don't only recede they also shrink vertically. The lakes this melting produces can also lead to more melting. These lakes are like a cancer that is consuming our world's glaciers.
Here is a fact that may surprise you: Even if all the world's mountain glaciers were to melt, the effect on sea levels would be small. However, the disappearance of mountain glaciers would have other impacts on nature aside from raising sea levels.
Global warming will also bring a rising of sea levels around the world.
As glaciers and polar ice sheets melt, the sea levels will rise more and more, and the sea temperatures will also warm. This means more hurricanes, and more flooding due to the rise of the sea level.

Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans in recent decades and its projected continuation.
Global average air temperature near the Earth's surface rose 0.74 ± 0.18 °C (1.3 ± 0.32 °F) during the past century. The
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes, "most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed{导致全球变暖的措施英文版}.
increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations," which leads to warming of the surface and lower atmosphere by
increasing the greenhouse effect. Natural phenomena such as
solar variation combined with volcanoes have probably had a small warming effect from pre-industrial times to 1950, but a cooling
effect since 1950. The basic conclusions have been endorsed by at least 30 scientific societies and academies of science, including all of the national academies of science of the major industrialized countries. The American Association of Petroleum Geologists is the
only scientific society that rejects these conclusions, and a few individual scientists also disagree with parts of them.
Climate models referenced by the IPCC project that global surface temperatures are likely to increase by 1.1 to 6.4 °C (2.0 to 11.5 °F)
between 1990 and 2100. The range of values reflects the use of differing scenarios of future greenhouse gas emissions and results of models with differences in climate sensitivity. Although most studies focus on the period up to 2100, warming and sea level rise are expected to continue for more than a millennium even if
greenhouse gas levels are stabilized. This reflects the large heat capacity of the oceans.

global warming 或者green house effect 温室效应,又译全球气候变暖
The greenhouse effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth
experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere (water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane, for example) trap
energy from the sun. Without these gases, heat would escape back into space and Earth’s average temperature would be about 60F colder. Because of how they warm our world, these gases are referred to as greenhouse gases.
Have you ever seen a greenhouse? Most greenhouses look like a small glass house. Greenhouses are used to grow plants,
especially in the winter. Greenhouses work by trapping heat from the sun. The glass panels of the greenhouse let in light but keep heat from escaping. This causes the greenhouse to heat up, much like the inside of a car parked in sunlight, and keeps the plants warm enough to live in the winter.
The Earth’s atmosphere is all around us. It is the air that we breathe. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere behave much like the glass panes in a greenhouse. Sunlight enters the Earth's atmosphere, passing through the blanket of greenhouse gases. As it reaches the Earth's surface, land, water, and biosphere absorb the sunlight’s energy. Once absorbed, this energy is sent back into the
atmosphere. Some of the energy passes back into space, but much{导致全球变暖的措施英文版}.
of it remains trapped in the atmosphere by the greenhouse gases, causing our world to heat up.
The greenhouse effect is important. Without the greenhouse effect, the Earth would not be warm enough for humans to live. But if the greenhouse effect becomes stronger, it could make the Earth warmer than usual. Even a little extra warming may cause problems for humans, plants, and animals.

篇六:《全球变暖英语作文》
As more and more countries become industrialized,global environment has been inevitably changed.And we are just experiencing the altered climate.Human activity is affecting global climate.Many scientists have predicated that global temperature will continue to rise in the foreseeable future because greenhouse gas emission is still increasing.
Now there is a growing awareness that climate change is definitely not confined to a certain region or country.
However,it is a problem all countries are involved.Most people would agree that as the planet warms and the sea ice is melting,polar bears are vulnerable to lose habitat,even
threatening our home around the coastal areas.It is time we took measures to protect our environment.
There is no denying that industrial emissions have been the dominant influence on climate change for the past 50
years,overwhelming natural forces .To improve this situation, First of all, Ultimately, we,everyone on this blue planet are supposed to promote and carry out"low-carbon"lifestyle as an obligation.Secondly,carbon emission reduction must be put into implement,especially reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions,and it a wise choice for us to use renewable energy resources.Moreover,global climate summit are expected to play
a significant part in urging involved powers to Carry out the state strategy of sustainable development so that our environment can be back to normal gradually.
Greenhouse gas emission is but one of the many effects for the climate change.Another is excessive deforestation.And the Amazon tropic rain forest has seen man's greediness.Just imagine what would be like if our forest coverage rate were what it was 20 years ago?The answer is quite clear that global temperature would be lower and many species may not die out.Therefore,we must quit using disposable packaging and dishware and encourage of employment of
environmentally-friendly materials.Besides,people ought to develop an awareness of environmental protection and cherish forests resources.Of course supporting recycling is also a good alternative way.
In present case ,yet it could go a long way for us to recover our environment from climate change,we are obligated to
dedicate ourselves to go for a harmonious planet.In addition,we have every reason to try our best to protect our environment.I believe the new environment is in store with our efforts.

What then are some of the main points to 那么我们可以从这份报告中得出哪些主要take away from this report? 收获呢?
It starts with where we now are. Warming 报告从现状谈起。气候变暖是“毋庸置疑”of the climate system is “unequivocal”. 的。温室气体在大气中的浓度是至少80万Atmospheric concentrations of 年来未见的。另外,人类引发的温室气体排greenhouse gases are at levels not seen 放量一直不断增加。1951年至2010年,在in at least 800,000 years. In addition, 已测量到的全球平均地表温度的升幅中,超human-caused emissions of such gases 过一半“极有可能”是由人类活动引起的。have risen consistently. It is also (请见图表。)
“extremely likely” that more than half the
observed increase in global average
surface temperature from 1951 to 2010 is
due to human activity. (See charts.)
If we continue on our path, the report
adds, larger changes in climate are highly
likely. The equilibrium rise in global
average surface temperatures caused by
a doubling of carbon dioxide
concentrations relative to pre-industrial
levels would be between 1.5C and 4.5C.
But the concentrations of greenhouse
gases have already risen by more than 40
per cent. Likely consequences of further
rises include disease, extreme weather,
food and water insecurity and loss of
biodiversity and ecosystems.
The report also argues that mitigation of 报告补充称,如果我们保持当前的轨道,气emissions and adaptation to their effects 候极有可能会发生更大变化。二氧化碳浓度are complementary strategies, not 相对于工业化时代之前翻一番,将导致全球substitutes: we need to do both.

justifications and two reasons.
One justification is that cost of action to 然而,目前没有迹象表明,人类将放弃那条mitigate emissions would be inordinate.

So why do they not believe that markets
would adjust to higher carbon prices?
Another justification is the uncertainty.
Uncertainty is indeed rife, as the IPCC makes clear. But one must not confuse
the uncertainty of outcomes with the
certainty of no outcomes. These are two
quite distinct propositions. What would

uncertainty, the rational path is to insure
