I don't know when global warming has become a problem that plagues all mankind, and careful viewers may notice that winter temperatures in recent years have indeed been higher than in the past, and recently, kuwait's maximum temperature exceeded 70 degrees, setting a new global maximum temperature record.
And according to the August meteorological monitoring data of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, in the August global high temperature city ranking, 13 of the top 15 cities are from Sri Kuwait, and in the recent measured temperature report, the maximum temperature of Kuwaiti cities in the shadow is 54 degrees, and the maximum temperature under the sun is 73 degrees.
In such extreme heat, the tires will be roasted and melted. For a time, the problem of global warming has once again attracted the attention of countries around the world, so the question is, why does the earth warm? How much of a catastrophe will global warming bring to humanity?
First of all, let's first understand the causes of global warming, global warming is what we often call the greenhouse effect, there are many reasons for the greenhouse effect, such as population surge, atmospheric environment pollution, waste water discharge, deforestation, etc., and according to scientists, the biggest cause of the greenhouse effect is actually the world population surge, why?
The answer is obvious, whether it is environmental pollution, deforestation or the discharge of wastewater, to sum up, these things are all done by humans, human beings do these things at the same time, do not forget to burn fossil fuels, such as oil, coal, etc., these behaviors will produce a lot of carbon dioxide, if there is a three-dimensional model of the earth, you will find that the place where there is human activity is like a huge incinerator, emitting carbon dioxide all the time, and ultimately leading to global warming, rising temperatures.
Well, after talking about the reasons for global warming, let's look at the impact of global warming on human beings, into 2021, human beings seem to be really on the road of "death" farther and farther, although in previous years there will be extreme climates such as high temperatures, heavy rainfall, droughts, etc., but have you found?
2021 seems to be really unusual, the frequency of extreme climate is also too high, first there is super heavy rainfall in many parts of Henan, and then typhoons in Guangdong region one after another, as well as frequent earthquakes in Sichuan, according to statistics, a total of 20 heavy precipitation processes occurred in the first half of the country, the hardest hit areas are Heilongjiang, Inner Mongolia, Hunan, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and other 18 regions, a total of 166 rivers have exceeded the warning flood, the loss of more than 13.5 billion yuan.
There were 12 earthquakes of magnitude 5 or above, 9 earthquakes of magnitude 5 to 6, 2 earthquakes of magnitude 6 to 7, and 1 earthquake of magnitude 7 or above. Among them, the strong earthquakes in Yunnan and Maduo in Qinghai in May caused 198,000 people to be affected, and there were natural events such as typhoons and droughts, with losses of nearly 26 billion, and these are only the extreme climates that occur in China, so what disasters will global warming lead to in other parts of the earth?
According to the latest news reports, there is a "big problem" in Greenland on the other side of the world, although this problem occurs under extreme climates, but it is also a knock-on effect caused by global warming, so what happened in Greenland?
According to reports, greenland recently appeared in 71 years of the largest heavy rainfall, to know that Greenland is located in a cold region, the possibility of sudden heavy rainfall is almost zero, but this time the heavy rainfall is extremely fierce, according to the University of Colorado National Ice and Snow Data Center data show that this rain is not only strange, but also brought a lot of unknown crises to mankind.
For example, this heavy rainfall occurred in a glacier area at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, with more than 7 billion tons of precipitation, from the perspective of climatologists to analyze, such a situation occurs in other places is normal, but it is an abnormal situation in Greenland, after all, Greenland is cold all year round, water vapor is almost impossible to fall in the form of rain, so what is the reason for the heavy rain in Greenland? What is the unknown crisis that it brings?
According to the study, scientists found that Greenland has seen a huge change in the climate in the face of global warming, and the temperature in Greenland has risen three times throughout the first half of 2021, and if this climate continues, there will even be uncontrollable events in the future, and this rain is a sign.
American scientist Jennifer Mercer said: Greenland is quietly undergoing great changes under the change of human beings, and the number of abnormal climates in Greenland has surged in the past decade, which is definitely not good news, and may even become a disaster for mankind. This sentence may sound alarmist, but in the end it is just a rain, will it really turn into a human disaster?
Before talking about this, we have to understand one thing, the extreme rainfall in Greenland is not terrible, the terrible thing is the consequences and causes of extreme rainfall, the reasons we said earlier, caused by global warming, then what are the consequences? This is also the biggest concern for scientists.
Unfortunately, problems are unfolding, Greenland's ancient glaciers originated in prehistoric times, and as global warming glaciers melted, germs frozen under the glaciers gained the possibility of waking up, and no one knows whether these prehistoric bacteria are deadly, but the unknown is the most terrifying.
And as the climate continues to change, the temperature is getting higher and higher, the rate of glacier melting will also accelerate, and what is more frightening is that not only Greenland, Antarctica, the Arctic and all the highland glaciers will melt, these ancient germs sealed in the glacier, ancient creatures will appear in the human vision, such as the 44,000-year-old lion baby after the melting of the Arctic glacier, the puppy 18,000-year-old and the mountain lion 50,000-year-old.
But compared with these frozen ancient creatures, ancient germs are the most worrying problem for human beings, scientists have found a lot of unknown germs in the Arctic and South Poles, once these germs enter human society, the impact is no less than the new crown, so the time left for humans to protect the environment is really not much, and human beings have also reached the fork of destruction and survival, fortunately, the current choice is still in the hands of humans, and you in front of the screen, will you work hard for the environment on which we live?
