Global Warming. Task 7

The Planet Earth is the home of all living creatures. We as human beings, the more we live the more danger we face on this planet. The problem is, all people around the globe are doing their best to survive. But sometimes it leads to critical problems that destroy our planet. This essay talks about what mankind have done to planet earth and the consequences of global warming in recent history.



Population growth is a serious dilemma that is growing every year, every minute, and every second. It is the root of most, if not all, of the world’s problems and it is the major global problem due to several reasons. Most of the problems we have today, such as food and water shortages, air and water pollution and global warming are the effects of overpopulation. The more people there are, the more resources consumed and the more waste created(Global Issues).




Deforestation is another serious problem we face in the world. Many people are still unaware of the impact this will cause. Forests act as a major carbon store because carbon dioxide (CO2) is taken up from the atmosphere and used to produce the carbohydrates, fats, and proteins that make up the tree(The Independent). Then trees will be burnt and it will release CO2 which is the main supplier to the greenhouse effect. Forests are the home to millions of creatures and it acts like a filter for the entire planet(Marketing).


Pollution whether it is air or water it is a problem that everyone should be concerned about. The increase of the automobile, factories and burning garbage in open dumps are more and more threatening the greenhouse effect and the Ozone layer. People all around the world are exposed and are at risk to many diseases, such as skin and lung cancer.

In conclusion, the world is going to the opposite direction. People are exploiting the resources in a surreal way. Countries with high population should apply a regulation or a law to their citizens to sustain the growth.
In my opinion, the most satisfactory solution for the environmental pollution is to build cool cities. Another solution is to encourage automobile manufacturers to produce electricity or steam powered cars and motorbikes instead of fossil fuel. Last but not least, persuade factories and industrial plants to use alternative energy that doesn’t harm the environment.
