Humans at mercy of climate change
EVERY human being must understand that the Earth is feeling
the effect of climate change.
For the last couple of weeks, I have been watching the world news and I
appreciate that the Earth is experiencing unexpected floods, cyclones,
earthquakes and landslides across the globe.
The continuous drought and its effect on multi-hectare farms across
continents like Australia and India, which has caused farmers to commit
suicide, is very significant.
I see this as a sign and an effect of global warming. I believe that climate
change will definitely affect the different gases, which keeps the
atmospheric pressure in balance at the different level of the atmosphere.
According to high school science, when these gases are heated, they gain
energy and as particles, they move faster. Therefore, the more factories
produce carbon gases, the more the trapping of heat from the sun. The more
trapping of heat means energising atmospheric gases, causing collision with
each other at different atmospheric pressures.
There is more to come and in the likes of natural disasters, we will hear
more global events that are shocking and surprising and to conclude the
world will be taken by surprise.
The increase in fuel price can also be scientifically explained like this.
The globe is now already generally warm and transporting of fuel from one
place to another is expensive as a significant amount of fuel is lost
through heat loss.
Giant fuel dealers only have to mark up the price to compensate for the heat
loss.
Malaria is an infectious disease of the lowlands. However, the prevalence of
malaria is quite high in the Highlands today because vectors such as
mosquitoes can breed in the Highlands now.
Malaria is also the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the
Highlands.
There will come a time when plants will no longer stand the temperature and
likewise, for animals.
Evolution may take over with new mutated plants and animals which are able
to survive the temperature change. If not, all sources of life will come to
an end.
