LET US STOP GLOBAL WARMING.

Global Warming is a cause of concern for all countries in the World." There are many who still do not believe that global warming is a problem at all. And it's no wonder: 
  because they are the targets of a massive and well-organized campaign of disinformation lavishly funded by polluters who are determined to prevent any action to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that cause global warming out of a fear that their profits might be affected if they had to stop dumping so much pollution into the atmosphere."



The considerable increase in the average temperature of earth in the past century is mainly due to the effects of global warming brought about by the accumulation of green house gases in the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases, global deforestation and urbanization all these lead factors lead to global warming.  Power plants are the major source of carbon dioxide.  They emit large amounts of carbon dioxide during power generation because of burning fossil fuels.

A hotter planet leads to dirtier air and water, more severe floods and droughts, more wildfires and other such serious consequences.

If  we don’t do anything  to reduce human-produced greenhouse gas emissions which is one of
the main causes for global warming -- trout habitat throughout the Rocky Mountain region could be reduced by 50 percent or more by the end of the century.

In recent years, human activity is changing the global climate, raising temperatures and affecting ecosystems around the world. 

Global warming is pushing wildlife over the brink. From melting sea-ice throughout the Arctic to increases in infectious diseases and loss of food, evidence of the impacts of global warming on wildlife is mounting.

Nations have joined together to fight global warming.  One such effort is the Kyoto Agreement.
