Global warming is possibly the largest problem the modern world faces. Every year we put more carbon vapors into the atmosphere, causing the earth to gradually heat up. As these green house gases build up, it makes it harder for the sun’s heat to escape from earth. One hundred years ago this problem didn’t exist, but the modern economy is run off of green house emitting fuels.
There is little hope for a solution. A problem of this magnitude would require all of the major countries to come together and try to think of a solution, but with the current super power pretending like nothing is happening, chances are this will not happen. America needs to step up research on alternative green fuels, and try to lead the world into a cleaner future.
If global warming continues to go unchecked, we will face a very different future. One the ice caps of Antarctica and Greenland melt, the oceans will be flooded with cold, fresh water, which would in most likely screw up the current ocean currents. Global warming is the biggest issue we face today, and if we choose to ignore it, there will be consequences.
