  • Close your eyes and imagine this: a mother gives her child all he needs. Giving him warmth when he is cold, feeding him when he is hungry, and giving him the best that she can afford. However, when the boy turns into a man, he takes his mother’s hard-earned money and abandons her. You will find this outrageous, won’t you?  Have you ever think that how did we treat our Mother Earth, GAIA? We are similar to the boy; we repay GAIA by destroying the environment and natural resources.

                    We are here to turn the hearts of man around to save the Earth. Not “bite the hand that feeds it”.

                    As there are several negative impacts of man’s activities on GAIA, I will like to focus on one particular topic: Global Warming. First, ________ will talk about the effect of Global Warming on existence of animals and plants and why is it important to protect them. Second, ________will talk about the effect of global warming on water resources and natural disasters. Third, _______ will talk about the effect of Global Warming on human health and why we need to stop endangering our lives.

                    Look at the diagram here, it shows the rising global temperature from 1998 till now. It is due to Man’s doing such as deforestation, burning of fossil fuel, the emission of harmful gases etc. The rising of temperature will cause endangering of animals and plants and will soon become extinct. It is cause when animals and plants are force to adapt to another habitat. Take for example, Polar Bear, they are endangered as the winter period is getting shorter and ice is melting due to the temperature and they will be suffering from hunger. We do not wish that our future generation will not able to see many alive animals but only pictures of them.

    Global Warming will destroy the balance of water supply and demand and even possibly expand worldwide gap in water availability. In another words, there will be areas that are frequently flooded on one hand, and areas constantly suffering drought and water shortage on the other. Blumenau, a city in Southern Brazil constantly suffers from the threat of floods. On the other hand, Ethiopia is often suffering from droughts. This can lead to food shortage as when flooding occurs, it will cover the crops and they will not be able to take in carbon dioxide thus, it cannot make its own food through photosynthesis which requires Carbon dioxide and will die. As for places which suffer from droughts, crops will not have enough water to photosynthesize and crops whither. This will lead to food shortage and we, human as well as animals will be suffering.

    Most importantly, climate change brings with it many health risks, including heat-related illnesses and malnutrition caused by food shortages. It also increases the number of people suffering from serious diseases such as malaria, meningitis and dengue fever. For example, an increase in wetter, warmer conditions will spread malaria to regions where it was previously absent, putting more lives at risk and a massive strain on the region’s health services. The increase in rainfall and flooding is also leaving people exposed to waterborne diseases such as cholera, diarrhea and dysentery as people have no choice but to drink contaminated water, especially if floods have destroy local sanitation and sewage facilities.

    As a secondary student, we have only limited capabilities. But by doing our part can mean a lot. We can save our Mother Earth by doing the 3Rs, reduce, reuse and recycle. We can recycle papers, cans and plastic bags. Thank you.
