ALARMING ISSUES
For the past years, global warming and certain green house effects had been alarming. Many researchers fear that if it continually gains rate in melting, some parts of the world may be erased without warning. For the last few months certain studies showed several small islands will soon be covered in water. These include the Maldives, the city of Venice and more. According to researchers, Greenland’s ice sheets are melting and it is already exceeding its expected rate.
According to ecogreen projects, “It was predicted that there would be 12-20 inches rise in sea levels if Greenland glaciers continue to melt and will ultimately affect North America and some of its neighboring cities. Not only will it affect those residing near coasts but it will also affect the drainage systems which will result to flooding of major cities all over the world.”
“Greenland ice melt is accelerated by global warming the world is experiencing today. Due to the rapid change in temperature, Atlantic ice is now melting and therefore raising sea levels across the globe; although it will not be necessarily felt in some parts. It was estimated to have been steadily increasing in rate since 1996.”
It would be a total loss if more and more parts of the world will be covered in water. Some even say that it’s best to visit these locations than regret not being able to after some years.
Not only does mosquito thrives on human blood but it also kills human. Several news are indicating extinction to some species due to mosquito bites.
In addition to the alarming news, “Earlier this month, it was reported that mosquitoes in the Galapagos Island developed a rare taste for reptilian blood and were sucking off blood from Galapagos tortoises and its close cousins. In this course of action, mosquitoes are passing diseases unknown to a reptilian’s system that could kill them which was exactly what local biologists fear of. Galapagos wildlife is the island’s most notable feature and the very reason why they were declared as one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. That alone warrants preventive measures from its local government as they believe mosquitoes breeding in the island are undergoing potentially dangerous mutation stages.”
Many researches have then concluded that the changes experienced by the mosquitoes can be traced back to global warming.
With this information we should at least encourage ourselves and everyone to go green. Alarming as this is, some people are still unaware and are not cooperative.
