Impact of Greenhouse Gas Effect
EnvidataID, Semarang – The effects of GHG or greenhouse gases have caused many losses to the climate and ecosystem. Here are some of the negative impacts produced by greenhouse gases on life.
- Marine Ecosystem Damage
The drastic increase in sea temperatures makes it difficult for coral reefs to grow. Some types of fish also have difficulty adapting to rising temperatures on the sea surface.
- Global Climate Change
Several areas on earth are experiencing a significant increase in temperature. Starting from tropical areas that are getting hotter even before the dry season, to areas that were previously cold now also have warmer temperatures.
- Rising Sea Levels
The melting of ice in the North Pole is causing sea levels to rise. Several regions around the world are increasingly hit by tidal floods every year. Many large cities are predicted to be at risk of sinking due to global warming.
- Ecological Change
As the earth’s climate and ecosystem change due to global warming, various flora and fauna will also experience changes in morphological and physiological structures in order to survive. This can be seen from various types of animals that continue to move habitats to find more food sources from time to time.
- Disturbing State Stability
The phenomenon of crop failure is one of the proofs that greenhouse gases have a negative impact on the economy of a country. Thus, global warming also threatens the food needs of the entire world’s population.
