Our Society is Troubled

Global Warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans since the mid-twentieth century, and its projected continuation. The average global air temperature near the Earth's surface increased 0.74 ± 0.18 °C(1.33 ± 0.32 °F) during the hundred years ending in 2005. (" Global Warming") Global warming is the increase in temperature near the earths surface. Global warming also increases the oceans temperature. This rise in temperature has been increasing for a hundred years ending in the year 2005 and is continuing. The global air has increased about 1.33ºF to its little stretch in temperature of .32ºF.

All scientists are most focused on the period up to 2100, the increase of warming on the earths surface and ocean level rises are expected to continue for more than a thousand years even if greenhouse gas levels are stabilized. The delay in reaching equilibrium is a result of the large heat capacity of the oceans. The increasing of our global temperature will cause the sea level to rise, and is expected to increase the intensity of Extreme weather events and to change the amount and pattern of precipitation Other effects of global warming include changes in Agricultural yeilds, trade routes,Glaciers retreats, species extinctions and increases in the ranges of Disease vectors. (" Global Warming") We all should be that prepared for that.Oceans been getting warmer over the years and now the ice caps are melting which would cause us to go into a new ice age. There are going to be extreme weather changes such as bigger Tornadoes in regions there not suppose to be near. Bigger Hurricanes every where probably . There would be alot of precipitation such snow, rain, hail, and hail. There would be stronger lightning storms too. Food would become scarce . Glaciers would be melted. Like the Antartic freeze line would be very smaller.More Species would be Extinct and many Diseases would be past out to many people.

That first sentence John is a good way to start off that paragraph because I also believe our society is in danger. We have to start caring for our enviroment and eachother and once we pass that stage we can get started
