•• About me ••




My name is Mohamed Abdulla Al Marzouqi. I am 20 years old. I was born in Abu Dhabi and I live in Al Bahia. In addition, I am the only son in my family, so I have to bear most of the responsibilities. I graduated from high school with 90% and I am currently studying Civil Engineering at Higher College of Technology. Furthermore, my hobbies are playing football, bowling, volleyball, reading and designing. I have been to Saudi Arabia only twice and I hope to visit more countries in the future. Hopefully I will graduate this year with a high diploma and I plan to complete my higher studies to get a bachelor degree. However, I have to work for Abu Dhabi Municipality after graduation because I am sponsored by them. Finally, I hope to get married in the future and build my own family.



My best wishes,
Mohamed



•• What is Global Warming ?




Global warming is defined as the increase in the average temperature of the earth. The temperature had unnatural increasing in the last century and this problem still continues. Many changes have happened in the climate and many places have been affected by it. The noticeable increase in the global average temperature is mainly with regard to an observed increase in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations. Moreover, economic growth is another major reason for air pollution. Therefore, the increase in the global temperature will melt the ice mountains and raise the sea level and cause many changes in the world climate. As we can see, global warming can cause many problems, so scientists and the government provide many effective solutions to avoid this serious problem. They want to control this problem by reducing the rate of pollution to a normal level. However, this goal can be achieved only with the participation of all individuals and being part of the responsibility.

๑.. Global Warming Causes ..



Global warming causes can be divided into two main terms, human causes and natural causes. Most causes are due to human activities because they don’t care about the environment. Moreover, many people cut the trees and affect the plant in a negative way. Furthermore, they increase the pollution by the smoke and gases from factories and vehicles. On the other hand there are many natural causes for global warming. One of the most common reasons is the result of variations in solar activity. It affects the earth’s surface and increases its temperature. In addition, the atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations and volcanic eruptions can also affect the earth and cause many effects. Finally, the high level of greenhouse gases because of human activity is classified by scientists as a major influence.




๑.. Greenhouse gases ..




Scientists say that the main cause of global warming is the increase in pollution from human and natural activities. This pollution affects the atmosphere which works like greenhouse. A greenhouse works as any closed area. It prevents the heat’s movement from inside to outside. Furthermore, there are several gases which cause global warming such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, methane, ozone, nitrogen oxides and chlorofluorocarbons. Most of these gases are coming from human activities such as cars and factories which give off a greenhouse gas which called CO2. The others are from natural activities which are much less effect such as volcano and burning forests. Because gases are the major reason for global warming, people should care about it and respond by applying the scientists’ advice in their daily life, to reduce the negative effects of these gases.
