Introduction




The environmental issue that I would be addressing today is Global Warming. We sit in this classroom today and look around us and we feel safe and unaffected. Global Warming is somewhere else and affect somebody else, and will not affect me. WRONG!
I chose this issue because I feel that Global Warming affects all living things on Earth now and in the future. The damage done by the human race over the last 200 years has accelerated the degradation of the natural environment on Earth.






Issue





Global warming causes many problems for everything on Earth now and in the future. The damage done by the human race over the last 200 years has accelerated the degradation of the natural environment on Earth. Due to the melting glaciers in Alaska, countries like Netherlands are suffering floods while over the other side of the world, Australia is suffering a drought.








5 Pictures

I feel these pictures are relevant because some of them are the causes of Global Warming while the others are results of Global Warming.






Conclusion





Mankind can help save the environment part by reusing, recycling and reducing. We could also drive our cars less, use less plastic bags, do not waste electricity, water, food, etc.
