Kyoto Protocol and Global Warming Evaluation

, Global warming is well renowned as the fact that the Earth’s climate is changing all around us,

every day, and not in the best of ways, global warming is the ever-raising temperatures of the world,

from frozen tundra with permafrost beginning to melt, to the deserts where temperatures now

routinely reach near 120 degrees in the summer having near constant fire hazards in place. Global

climate change affects lives all over the planet, and not just humans but the animals that coexist in these

areas as well, in some cases they are not able to adapt fast enough and become extinct. It is often

thought that climate change only includes temperatures, however, this is entirely incorrect it also

includes harsh weather patterns, stronger storm surges, drought, and sea levels rising. In truth, the most

effective way to understand climate change is to learn about the greenhouse effect and how it affects

the Earth.




Earth’s atmosphere is a complex amalgamation of multiple substances, oxygen, carbon dioxide,

nitrogen, trace amounts of other elements and water vapor. The combination of these gases mirror the

effects of a garden greenhouse, absorbing a considerable portion of the suns energy and upon its

attempted exit bounce it right back down to continue the dispersion of its heat into our atmosphere, of

course some of this ultraviolet radiation will escape the atmosphere. Ultimately, this will end with an

increase in global temperatures. Even thought this seems like a terrible thing, the greenhouse effect is

why Earth is entirely hospitable to us.




The greatest problem with greenhouse effects is that there is not a stop gap and the

temperatures can theoretically increase until they are equal to the sun’s if the ultraviolet radiation and

its energy are not filtered away from the Earth’s surface through the atmosphere. These heat ratios can

shift incredibly fast if there is nothing done about them, to the point that organic life is not capable of
