1 PRESENTED BY (YOUR NAME AND GROUP #)

2 What is Global Warming? Increase in Earth’s average temperature

3 Data about extent of problem

4 What causes global warming? Increased concentration of atmospheric CO 2 As a result of: Burning fossil fuels Deforestation CO 2 traps sun’s reflected heat Result: greenhouse effect

5 What is the greenhouse effect?

6 Effects of Global Warming

7 Data on Impact Sea Levels

8 Ways to Reduce Global Warming Alternate energy sources solar energy wind energy nuclear energy Use public transportation Car pool Use less electricity turn off lights Plant trees
