Global Warming Essay

In this essay  I will be referring to one of the biggest problems of today: Global Warming.In my opinion, this is the most significant problem of today in the world. This is not affecting us today, but in a couple of years, believe me it will.

In the voice of Deborah White, the polar ice caps of fresh water will melt in the ocean and will be mixed with salt-water and this polar ice caps will lose their fresh water and the responsible of yhis will be the global warming. This is a process that we have to stop now, the clean and fresh water in this moment is a problem because in the moment that we will need that water, we are going to have to suffer the concecuences.

Using the ideas of the Union Of Concerned Scientists, some of the solutions for the Global Warming and their concecuences can be stop using fossil fuel power plants and use renewable energy such as wint energy or hydroelectric energy. "Another way is reducing desforestation and forest degradation and by making our food production practices more sustainable".I believe that if we follow these simple steps we can end with this problem.

I know that you will say that these steps are too expensive and it are changes that are more necessary and cheaper well, I will say to you that it doesn't, exist a change more necessary and cheaper, well I will say to you that it doesn't exist a change more necessary, in my opinion, of course. As I said, Global warming is something that in some years can finish with the humanity. Now, you will say that it exists something more necessary that save your life?

In conclusion, Global Warming is a problem that with their effects: the melting of fresh wates polar ice caps in the ocean of salt water can end withe humanity or at least change it, but is not too late, we can solve it, using renewable energy and stoping the deforestation. The change is in your hands

1) Other Effects Of The Global Warming

 The most pressing problems include:

     Rising sea levels, which lead to flooding and displacement and death of possibly millions of people.
·         Per the Inconvenient Truth website, "Global sea levels could rise by more than 20 feet with the loss of shelf ice in Greenland and Antarctica, devastating coastal areas worldwide."
·         Fresh-water polar ice caps melting into salt-water oceans alter the ocean gulf-stream patterns that regulate temperatures. This process leads to major temperature-pattern changes around Earth.
·         The changing landscapes and higher temperatures in polar regions will endanger countless animal and plant species, and irretreivably alter the balance of the ecosystem.
·         Ice caps and glaciers serve as sunlight reflectors, bouncing high-temperature sun rays back into space and away from Earth. When these natural structures have diminished greatly or vanished, Earth will be further warmed as the darker oceans absorb much of the sun ray heat.

2)The Solutions


Boosting energy efficiency: The energy used to power, heat, and cool our homes, businesses, and industries is the single largest contributor to global warming. Energy efficiency technologies allow us to use less energy to get the same—or higher—level of production, service, and comfort. This approach has vast potential to save both energy and money, and can be deployed quickly.
  • Phasing out fossil fuel electricity: Dramatically reducing our use of fossil fuels—especially carbon-intensive coal—is essential to tackle climate change. There are many ways to begin this process. Key action steps include: not building any new coal-burning power plants, initiating a phased shutdown of coal plants starting with the oldest and dirtiest, and capturing and storing carbon emissions from power plants. While it may sound like science fiction, the technology exists to store carbon emissions underground. The technology has not been deployed on a large scale or proven to be safe and permanent, but it has been demonstrated in other contexts such as oil and natural gas recovery. Demonstration projects to test the viability and costs of this technology for power plant emissions are worth pursuing.
  • Managing forests and agriculture: Taken together, tropical deforestation and emissions from agriculture represent nearly 30 percent of the world's heat-trapping emissions. We can fight global warming by reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation and by making our food production practices more sustainable.
  • Developing and deploying new low-carbon and zero-carbon technologies: Research into and development of the next generation of low-carbon technologies will be critical to deep mid-century reductions in global emissions. Current research on battery technology, new materials for solar cells, harnessing energy from novel sources like bacteria and algae, and other innovative areas could provide important breakthroughs.

3)Global Warming Impacts

Global warming is already having significant and costly effects on our climate, our health, and our environment.
Global warming has serious worldwide implications, though the type and magnitude of local effects varies considerably by region. This page highlights the consequences of global warming on a broad level.
Unless we take immediate action to reduce global warming emissions, these impacts will continue to intensify, grow ever more costly and damaging, and increasingly affect the entire planet — including you, your community, and your family.

Accelerating Sea Level Rise and Increased Coastal Flooding

Average global sea level has increased eight inches since 1880, but is rising much faster on the U.S. East Coast and Gulf of Mexico. Global warming is nowaccelerating the rate of sea level rise, increasing flooding risks to low-lying communities and high-risk coastal properties whose development has been encouraged by today's flood insurance system.

Protest Letter

Minister Andrés Gómez Lobos                                                                           Av Edmundo Eluchans
La Moneda Palace                                                                                                                    Con Con

Dear Mr. Gómez,

I am writing this letter in protest to the new mobile phone antenna of the company "Entel". I understand that they really need the antenna because of the costumers that live in Con Con need a better signal, but it can't be here, it can't be in my dear neighborhood. You really don't know how that antenna will  affect me, my flat and all my neighborhood.

First of all, that antenna will be do a lot of noise at the 24 hours f the day because of the important works that they will do and it will do interference with the signal of my flat, because we are costumers of "Movistar", not "Entel" .I can live with this, but with the thing that my family can't live is knowing the problems in the nervous system that can cause this antenna and the mortal diesase that this antenna can cause: Cancer.

 I can't live relaxed knowing that we can get that terrible disease because of an antenna.  It have been more than 5000 cases of people that have cancer because of that antenna and I don't want that for me and my family. They can't do that to us! You must make a law against put antennas in populated places

 You are the only one that can save my flat and my neighborhood, you will disregard this letter and let that antenna destroy it?

I look  forward to your response

Your sincerely.

Rally

Neighbors,

Tomorrow, May 11th, at 6:00 PM we will do a rally at the  because of the possible construction of a  mobile phone antenna in our dear neighborhood. People it's necessary to prevent this. This antenna will bring us a lot of problems, noise, and probably, diseases. In the mobile phone antenna of the company of "Entel",the principal problem it's the mortal disease that cause this antenna, Cancer. More than 10,000 people died because of this antenna that cause them cancer. You want that for you and you family? Personally, I don't, so I need you to save our neighbourhood.

E-Petition

Responsible dep: Sports Department


The school does't have a lot of variety  of sports and fields to practice them. I think that a sport that we have to include in swimming an own pool. I know that in some classes of junior and middle we have swimming, but they have to go to the pool of the "Club naval", we need an own pool for a use of all the classes, such as Senior, Middle and Junior. Swimming is one of the most complete sports, it strengthen your arms, your legs and your head and it have a lot of variety of types of swimming: Crolling swimming, butterfly swimming, back swimming, etc.

I want you to sign this if you agree.
