Climate Change

Pesan Hotel Online Paling Murah - Impact of climate change causing rising sea levels sektar 1 meter would be a serious threat for Indonesia. Based on the results of recent research through modeling, as many as 115 medium-sized and uninhabited islands will disappear in the next 2050 years.

Pesan Hotel Online - Deputy Director of Forum for the Environment or the National Institution, Ali Akbar, said in Jakarta on Thursday (7 / 7), the sinking of the proficiency level in these islands could become a reality, if the government and society of Indonesia could not cope with the effects of global warming, since it now.

Global warming is caused among others by the amount of greenhouse gas emissions that are trapped in the atmosphere. Contributor to greenhouse gas emissions largely from forest land use change sector. As a result, most of the surface of the earth becomes hotter.

Currently, the Earth's temperature rise of 0.6 degrees Celsius up to 1 degree Celsius. If the situation continues to run without precaution, in the year 2020, global temperatures will rise by two degrees Celsius. Rising global temperatures could melt the ice in the polar regions. In the last 100 years, has been an increase of sea water as high as 10 to 25 centimeters.

Institutions caring international environment, Greenpeace, estimates that, in the year 2100, will increase up to 95 inches of sea water. Increasing sea level will cause the loss of the island or the mainland of the world. Approximately 1 percent of the land in Egypt will be lost, 6 percent in the Netherlands, 17.5 per cent in Bangladesh.

Severe, approximately 80 percent of the atoll in the Marshall Islands will sink. Similarly, the islands of Fiji, Samoa, Vanutu, Japan, Philippines, and Indonesia. Impact further, tens of millions of people living in coastal areas must evacuate to higher ground. Various infrastructure and settlements on the coast will be damaged.

Climate change also resulted in a shift in the season due to changes in pressure and temperature. The dry season will last long. Drought and desertification appear. On the other hand, short rainy season with higher rainfall. As a result, would prevent flooding and landslides.

Climate change is happening slowly in the long run, would cause a humanitarian crisis. Reduced food supplies due to the high potential for crop failure. Agricultural productivity in tropical regions decreased, if the global average temperature increased by 1 to 2 degrees Celsius.

Other impacts, clean water crisis will occur because of prolonged drought. Source of fresh water needs for one third of world population, will dry up in the year 2100. Similarly, the widening threat of various diseases caused by air temperature increases. The incubation period of mosquitoes, for example, will become increasingly short.

Earth's temperature changes also cause the loss of species of flora and fauna that can not adapt. In fact, the Earth's surface temperature increases causing ice sheets and glaciers around the world, especially in the North Pole and South Pole, to melt.

Currently, most of the world community is not aware of the risks of climate change impacts are scary, if it fails to change behaviors that are still destroying the environment. Tree planting and forest protection is a step to restore the environment. Effort that must be followed to the prevention of destruction or conversion of excess forest.
