Causes of Global Warming

According to “an inconvenient truth”, there are a lot of causes of this phenomena, such as increasing of CO2, gases from power plants, pollution emitted from cars, trucks and airplanes. Moreover, increasing the number of vehicles lead to increase the pollution in the air, by emitting carbon. In addition, about 10 % of the green house emissions came from airplanes. Another possible cause of the global warming is Methane. In fact, it is approximately 60 times stronger than carbon dioxide. According to the scientist, a rapid of increasing Methane leads to increase earth heating. Deforestation is another cause of this phenomenon. a lot of countries burn the trees to help their nation economics’ . Moreover, if the change of temperatures between oceans and atmosphere still there, the climate will be changed and it will cause increasing of earth heating.

UAE and Global Warming

According to the Nation Environment article, that the global warming threatens the UAE marine life’s .That leads to lost of coral reefs on these sides of the UAE. This problem because of gulf waters became hot and saltier. As we know, that the UAE depends on this source for many proposes, such as drink and agricultures. Moreover, the Global warming has created difficult conditions for marine fauna flora and seaward development as well. To help preserve marine resources, the UAE government, represented of Dolphin Energy Ltd, the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and the Environmental Research and Wildlife Development Agency (Erwda) in Abu Dhabi are set to collaborate on a $500,000 project to map the status and condition of coral reefs in the UAE, especially around Abu Dhabi. In the other hands, According to the Emirates Environment Group, the study expected to come up with a comprehensive blueprint for coral reef conservation in the region along with a coral reef chart and guide.

UAE & The Enviroment

Another step is that the UAE made another progress in the fields of environmental protection and wildlife management on their lands. The evidence for this progress is to be seen almost everywhere, one looks in the Emirates, from the widespread improvements in environmental controls to the impressive wildlife breeding, conservation and public display projects. The fact that, after one decade of careful study and habitat development, the greater flamingo finally bred successfully in Abu Dhabi during the winter of 1998–99, the first confirmed breeding of this species in the UAE and the first confirmed breeding anywhere on the mainland of the Arabian Peninsula, is much more than an ornithological achievement.

UAE and the Electricity

In addition, the U.A.E is among the largest energy consuming country in the world. This article was published recently and has the solution to the global warming. Abu Dhabi government shut down the electricity of 20 schools one day for 1 hour to see how much carbon emissions is reduced in that particular time. This move didn't only benefit the U.A.E, but the whole world. A very nice way to reduce carbon emissions consumed everyday and encourages other countries to do the same thing or should be doing.

UAE Beats Americans' Environmental Harm

Another thing is whenever I look at the title of this article, I start smiling. The U.A.E can be considered one of the worlds most energy consuming country, but when it comes to being before U.S.A in energy consumption, I have to disagree. Since when does the U.A.E produce more carbon emissions than U.S.A! U.S.A has over 200million people in population, whereas the U.A.E only just reaches 4 million. How can 4 million people produce more carbon emissions than 200million people? For a small country with low population, yes it is possible that we produce a lot of carbon emissions than needed, but in the long period, U.S.A will definitely be consuming more. At least the U.A.E is still with the Kyoto Protocol, unlike U.S.A, which dropped out in 2001.
