Global warming is real

Global warming is driving low-altitude species to invade high-altitude habitats as they seek cooler climates. Climate change skeptics often disregard the role of human activity in this crisis, fearing economic repercussions from greenhouse gas regulations. While the Earth has always experienced climate shifts, the current rapid warming trend—exacerbated by human emissions—has serious implications. Permafrost is thawing, causing villages in Canada and Siberia to sink, glaciers are melting, and both plant and animal species are altering their migration patterns.

  1. Global warming is real By:meka

  2. as the climate heats up, the low-altitude species are seeking cooler habitats and making inroads on the living space of the original high-altitude species. • The climate-change doubters are especially hostile to the idea that human actions are causing global warming.

  3. They fear that attempts to control climate-altering greenhouse-gas emissions are thinly-disguised attacks on the economies of the Western nations, especially the economy of the United States. • Our Earth goes through climate shifts over the course of time, but the greenhouse gases we humans are pouring into the atmosphere are accelerating a natural warming trend.

  4. The rise is most noticeable at high latitudes, where Canadian and Siberian villages that have for centuries rested on solid ground are now sinking into mud, because the permafrost beneath them is thawing. • Glaciers are melting away. • Plants blossom earlier too.

  5. Arctic sea ice is thinning drastically • And both plant and animal species are expanding their habitats northward because of the generally warmer temperatures • Migrating animals head north earlier because spring temperatures are arriving weeks earlier in the year.
