GLOBAL WARMING - Assignment 3

Our CG assignment 3 require us to Illustrate or to create a poster on the Global Warming Awareness.

Global Warming as it is easy to understand, means the rising temperature of the earth's atmosphere and ocean.The question on Global Warming has been raised since the mid 20th century and the problem are still in continuation. The major part that causes global warming is the change in the Green House Effect that keeps the earth in its temperature that supports lives. The increase of green house gases due to heavy industrial activities leads to trapping of heat on earth thus affect lives as well as the natural effects of earth.

As we know, Earth consist of 75% water ( salt/fresh water) and 10% of ice caps and glaciers leaving only 15% of land for humans and other living animals to live. The increase in temperature on earth melts the ice faster than its suppose to melt seasonally thus, increase in sea water level and decrease in habitant land. Imagine if the ice on north, and the ice on south( that is approximately 2.3km deep down) melts faster that it should be, the masses of earth land would sink and leave almost no space for inhabitants or worst, humans.

People take this issue lightly and thinking that global warming was exaggerated and worst, a hoax. Without setting the right mindset on the people, or the leaders of the world, the problem will become much worser and then there will be no time to regret. Alot of awareness campaign and studies have been done and works hard to get support from the people around the world.

This assignment that require us to create a poster is a good way to determine whether how much we know about global warming and how much we are trying to create an awareness or ways to stop it.
