Assalamualaikum wr.wb.
The
Honourable juries,the honourable ladies and gentlemen.First of all,I would like
to say thanks to the God who always gives this mercies and blessing to us.And
thanks for our lecturer Mrs.Fatimah that
has given this opportunity to me.So that I can deliver my speech about “How to
prevent Global Warming”
Ladies and Gentlemen
We see right now,that our earth
is hotter and always increase year by year ladies and gents and we see that
antartic pole melted so fast than we are predicted.Why is it happen? No doubt
again the answer is because Global Warming.Okay,lets
we define about Global Warming itself ladies and gentlemen. Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of Earth's near-surface air
and oceans since the mid-20th century and its projected continuation and
has been caused by increasing
concentrations of greenhouse gases, which result from human activity
such as the burning of fossil fuel and deforestation.
So
ladies and gent from my explanation before we see that there is the factor of Global Warming. Lets we analyze
one by one ladies and gents .First on how Global Warming caused by deforestation
,we say yes because we see many people make deforestation ,from this situation
it can create tangible harm towards the society it self because from deforestation
it means that we letting carbon dioxyde were being released into the
atmosphere,and actually this situations happen
from Industrial Revolution so it makes the earth warm up.And Second
of all on how Global Warming caused by Greenhouse effect ,yes indeed we
believe this is from Greenhouse effect because When energy from the sun
enters the Earth’s atmosphere, about a third of it is reflected back to
space. Of the rest, the atmosphere
absorbs some, but most of it is absorbed by the surfaces of the earth.
So,its clear enough that right
now Global Warming become the urgency things that we should pay attention
more,because we see that there are so many further implication from Global Warming it self.First on how Global Warming
can create serious impact towards the society we say yes because There
will be extreme weather more heat-related diseases in hotter summers, and
increased breathing problems as higher temperatures increase air pollution in
cities, reducing air quality. The malaria mosquito may also be able to spread
to other regions of the world where it is currently too cold to survive and
breed.Especially from the poorest people it self. The poorest people in society
will unfortunately be those least able to cope with the impacts of global
warming .Second on how Global Warming can create serious impact toward the
environment,yes indeed because of what,because Higher temperatures will
cause a melting of ice in Greenland and Antarctica. This will accelerate the
rise of sea level.More over,it will affect agriculture New crops will be able to be grown in areas
that are currently too cold to support them. However, more pests and diseases
may offset any benefits higher temperatures may have.
So,ladies
and gentlemen,the question now is,what the small things or local act that we
can do to reduce Global warming,but these small things can create Global Impact
and big contribution in this world?
Less
driving means fewer emissions. Besides saving gasoline, walking and biking are
great forms of exercise. Explore your community mass transit system, and check
out options for carpooling to work or school.
When you do drive, make sure your
car is running efficiently. For example, keeping your tires properly
inflated can improve your gas mileage by more than 3 percent. Every
gallon of gas you save not only helps your budget, it also keeps 20 pounds of
carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.
2. Use the
"Off" Switch
Save
electricity and reduce global warming by turning off lights when you leave a
room, and using only as much light as you need. And remember to turn off your
television, video player, stereo and computer when you're not using them.
It's also a good idea to turn off
the water when you're not using it. While brushing your teeth, shampooing the
dog or washing your car, turn off the water until you actually need it for
rinsing. You'll reduce your water bill and help to conserve a vital resource.
3. Plant a Tree
If you
have the means to plant a tree, start digging. During photosynthesis, trees and
other plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. They are an integral
part of the natural atmospheric exchange cycle here on Earth, but there are too
few of them to fully counter the increases in carbon dioxide caused by
automobile traffic, manufacturing and other human activities. A single tree
will absorb approximately one ton of carbon dioxide during its lifetime.
So ladies and gentlement lets we do
these small things start from our self,we do believe These Local Act can create
Global Impact,so that’s all my speech thankyou for your kind attention
Wassalamualaikum wr.wb
