Global Issues Something has gone wrong with our Earth...

Atmospheric polution n The Three Main Sources of Atmospheric Polution are: — Burning fossil fuels; — CFC`s (Chloro - fluoro - carbons ) ( They are causing a hole in the ozone layer.) ; — Lead used in Petrol (The lead is breathed in and causes damage to the nervous system.)

The greenhouse effect n Modern Industrial life is causing the Greenhouse effect; n Carbon Dioxide and Methane trap heat from the Sun; n The Greenhouse Effect may cause Flooding and Drought…!;

Acid rain n Burning Fossil Fuels Causes Acid Rains; n Acid rain kills Fish, Trees, and Statues; n Acid rain is prevented by Cleaning up Emissions;

Overpopulation n The world population is rising out of control due to Modern Medicine and Agriculture; n There`s one born every minute - and it`s too many; n More people means more environmental damage.

Deforestation n Decrease in rainfall; n Serious soil erosion; n Serious flooding; n Increase in CO2;

Disasters n Natural n Flooding n The greenhouse effect n Global Warming n Endangered species n Human n Deforestation n The destruction of habitats n Overpopulation n Famine
