Global Warming

This article was about how global warming effects are coming sooner than anticipated and will be much more dangerous than earlier predicted. Leading scientist of the world say the will be much stronger than modern time storms and with the melting of polar ice sheets, the drowning of major coastal cities is a high possibility . These finding were released last Tuesday in the European Science journal, Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics. In addition, former NASA climate scientist, James E. Hansen is afraid that “we’re in danger of handing young people a situation that’s out of their control”.

The theory that led these scientists to believe in such dramatic events are the following. First, burning fossil fuels at a dangerous pace and poring heat trapping gasses into the atmosphere will cause a quick climate change. Then this will cause ice sheets in Green land and Antarctica to melt rapidly. This in turn will cause coastal cities to flood. The prediction of this event was to be a couple of centuries away but scientists think it may just be a couple of decades away. There are some scientists in the world that doubt theories like these but many are on board with this theory.
