Volcanic Eruptions: Reason of Climate Change Part 2


Climate change has become worst and worst every day. Lots of people didn’t know what really makes the climate change, and now in the part two of my opinion and own investigation about the causes of climate change. I will show to you why volcanic eruptions become one of the causes and if there’s something that we can do about this cause. Together with the help of images that was taken from the different source, like Google, Yahoo and even encyclopedia I will be going to give you the right reason why this happened.

This image (left side) is taken from the volcanic eruption happened in Philippines, the Mt. Pinatubo that kills thousands of people. In the picture you can see the vast amount of smoke, and this smoke contains certain elements that contribute to what we called as "Greenhouse Gases". And now you will know what are those Greenhouse Gases and what makes this greenhouse gases affects the normal temperature of the world.

Primarily, Greenhouse Gases includes; carbon dioxide and water vapor, that's the reason why human can easily produce such gases and would affect the current temperature of the world. But in there are also some elements that makes and affects the ozone layer as well as the atmosphere like methane, Nitrogen and CFCs  or the chlorofluorocarbon. And accordingly, the volcanic eruption happened in Philippines (Mt. Pinatubo) and in Chile (Mt. Hudson) makes the ozone losses it's 15-20% at high latitude and greater than 50% over the Antarctic. 


This is the volcanic eruption in Mt. Hudson but not the actual image during the 1991 massive eruption. 


And here are the collections of the volcanic eruptions all around the world. . . .


This is the Shinmoedake Eruption in Japan


Mt St. Helen's Massive Eruption happened in 1980


Mt. Redoubt Eruption in Alaska


Mt Merapi eruption in Indonesia happened October, 2010


Mt. Mayon Eruption in the Philippines

These images are the evidence that volcanic eruptions can contribute to the changes in the present world temperature. Just imagine, for about 1,500 active volcanoes in the world and if these volcanoes will explode and release massive smoke, do you think ozone layer can resist this massive amount? And since volcanic eruption is a natural phenomenon, and people like us can't do anything to stop this phenomenon and the only thing that we can do is to prepare ourselves to the possible outcomes that this eruption may result.

Continental Drift: One of the reasons of Climate Change


People are always thinks that climate change occurs it’s because of the silly things that people do to the environment. If we try to observe it then you can say that they are really right, but to tell you, there is one reason why climate change becomes stronger every day and the people that usually feels this are those people who lived in a place where this phenomenon happens.

For better understanding about the continental drift, please focus your eyes on the pictures that will be shown here.

This is the world map that was theoretically draw by the scientist long before. And as you can notice, 270 years ago the world only have one continent and they called it as PANGAEA.  


And after 30 years, the world now is divided into two major continents and they called it as LAURASIA AND GONDWANALAND. And you can also noticed that the continents are now began to spread.

After 40 years, the two major continents are still there but the separation of each continents are now become clearer and bigger. And you can also notice the distance between the continents.

60 years later, the continents began to spread and there are small part of the land that began to break and that was the first reason why the word country is being used.

45 years later, the small breaks began to have its group and there are already 7 major continents that includes; NORTH AMERICA, SOUTH AMERICA, AFRICA, INDIA, AUSTRALIA, ANTARCTICA AND EURASIA ( combination of Europe and Asia)

And the world today. . .as you can notice, all the maps tells that this is the real physical feature of the earth, but what happens after 60 years? 

And this explain the question. According to the theory the world will be look like this after 60 years and you would actually feels it since 60 years are starting to count on already.

And thus, if you are looking at the other part of the theory, you can really say that climate change isn’t only based on the things that people do, but instead, the climate change is the normal changes that earth possesses. But the questions now, are you prepared enough to face the changes that this climate change push until the end of time?  Or is your body prepared enough to accept the changes of the environment and could give you some idea on how you could survive as the night becomes colder and colder every day? That’s why do not just wait for this moment to happen, act now, plant more trees, and do whatever the things that you need to do.

CLIMATE CHANGE


Climate Change is a measurable increase in the average temperature of Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, and landmasses. Scientists believe Earth is currently facing a period of rapid warming brought on by rising levels of heat-trapping gases, known as greenhouse gases, in the atmosphere.
 This was the biggest problem that the world are facing today where in, each of us are obliged to contribute a little amount of care just to protect our environment. According to the research of the scientist, the major cause of this climate change is the smoke that the factories and vehicles produce or in other words, the pollution that the human produces every day. This was the fact that we know, but did you know that even there will be no human in this world; still, time will come that what the world will experience at this point will still be the same experience that the world will have even if there are no existence of human. Do you want to know the reason? Just continue reading this article.
             As we all know, all the planets are revolving around the sun and we also know that the sun is a kind of star. Each star has its life span, and sun as one of its kind has also an end, one of the bases that we can say that a particular star will come to its end if it possesses more light, if it produces more light it follows also that it produces more heat. As the year goes by, the sun’s life began to decrease and as the reduction of its life, sun will now produce more heat that’s why even if there will be no greenhouse effect or pollutions or whatsoever, the world will still experience the hotness that even human experiences today.
            Thus, even if we know already the reason why, we should still be vigilant of our environment, the proper waste disposal and the proper caring of the nature will still be our first priority. The sun has its own limitation, but it will happen trillion or billions of years from now but if we will continue giving out pollution to our environment instead of billions of years it will become thousands or millions of years. It will decrease its lifespan and eventually the world be eradicated together with the sun. So let us be conscious of our wastes. And let us help one another to bring back the true nature that our God has given.
