Assalamualaikum,Friends

The names given is Syed Mohd Idham Bin Syed Abd Wadut. Born in 11th May 1989 in Machang, Kelantan. Originally Kelantenese, but my parents are mixblooded where my father are negeri sembilan people and my mom is from kelantan. I got 6 siblings , 4 male and 2 female and i am 5 out of 6. Am is the my nickname for me, short form of Idham. My hometown people call me with that nickname and i'm loving it. But at school there are some friends calling me Syed or Idham. Whatever the nickname is, I enjoy whatever the nickname are.

I'm now studying at National University of Malaysia, and taking Degree in Media and communication courses. I am now 21 years old, not married yet. But most important is proud to be member of Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities in this UKM. Why??, because it's courses was different from another Faculties that quite "difficult" but actually is the same just devided my the matter of your effort. I will finish my degree in 2012 ( InsyaALLAH) and be one of the media member and try to make a better world ahead with my knowledge. So here, in addition I want to give a compliment and gladness to Yus and Jannah so hopefully they have a better life ahead. Also dedicated to our beloved lecturer, Madam Hafizah for her kindness lecture us since this early sem till the end. Thanks for everything(^_^)

Hello and hye there! Assalamulaikum wbt to all Muslim. I will take the opportunity here to tell all of you something about myself. My full name is Yusmaniza Bt Mohd Yusoff. But my friends prefer to call me Yus and Niza only. At 2010, my age was became 22. So, I should be more matured than before. I'm taking Linguistic courses at UKM and I love it so much! I will learn how to use 'Bahasa' more fluently and kindly.
At UKM, I live at 'Kolej Keris Mas' and I am FSSK's student. I came from Kelantan and study at UKM for a three years. Now, it's been two years and I still have one more years to finish my study then i will be graduated! Oh, it was so long to wait...My ambition is to be a lecturer and a novelist. God willing...

I am not different from others. I'm just a normal people who is only an Ordinary human, a quiet ride together under the Lord 'cover' before returning to go through 'rain', 'heat', 'storms' and 'lightning' to reach at the 'eternal place'. So, I am only a human and mankind that not have much information about this world. But, I am really proud to be a human because I have a brain to think before doing something. As a human who cares, I really love my life, country, and the whole world. So, together we co-operate to taking cares of our world!!!

Conclusion For This Topic

Global warming is a highly controversial debate with a variety of different factors influencing people's thinking and views on it.

Clearly part of the argument in terms of global warming is in the terms used. Analysis appears to show that while global warming as a phenomenon is widely (if grudgingly, by some) accepted, it is the links of global warming to global climate change, and of the enhanced greenhouse effect to global warming, that some consider tenuous.

It is blindingly obvious that many opinions are influenced by people's positions, including their professions, beliefs and personal moral views on the environment, and it is this that causes such climate controversy. On the one hand, evidence is mounting that the greenhouse effect, global warming and global climate change are linked, and that potential losses are in the trillions of pounts. Conversely, there are many who are unwilling to pay the cost of deterring global warming in terms of lifestyle and energy use, which creates a great deal of conflict.

In global terms, it is LEDCs that appear to lose out the most, as their voice in the global community is not as resonant as countries such as America and other MEDCs, who rely on an oil based economy. Furthermore, a problem is presented with countries such as China, an NIC which is fast becoming an MEDC. China is now the largest global emitter, however it is a contentious issue for countries such as the UK to enforce emissions restrictions on a nation that is using natural resources and is producing emissions to grow economically in the same manner as the UK in the industrial revolution.

With this multi-faceted issue there is no right answer and many viewpoints, however to reiterate an earlier point: data clearly shows global surface temperatures rising to unprecedented levels, which for a variety of reasons poses a threat to the entire planet. However contentious the issues may be, it is clear that now is the time that we need to act in some way to either adapt to global warming or mitigate its effects. The most likely way for this to become a reality is through the adoption of cleaner energy sources for all our energy uses, however the scale of this task is daunting when considering our economic dependance on fossil fuels.

At any rate, the key point is this; we must act now to reduce our footprint on this planet, which appears to be having an effect on the very climate that allows us the right conditions to exist. If we cannot mitigate the potential effects now, regardless of the cost, then our survival as a species loosk to be directly threatened by the consequences of our own actions.

Who will care if it warms up a few degrees? The answer, is everybody. We will all be affected, and for most of us, for the worst.

I've got this conclusion from : http://www.globalwarmingchallenge.co.uk

My Point Of View....

After all that my friends and I were posted many articles about Global Warming, I should give my opinion here that contribute to this issue;

As a people who cares, I believe that Global Warming was a very dangerous phenomenon to our life and the whole world. This issue was spread over to this world from many years ago, but there are still happened untill today...

People and government know that global warming was a something that are not impossible to destroy our future life. So, why this phenomenon are still happened??

As a human being that can think properly, we cannot let this matter like this...We should from now bring this issue together and together again we find the best ways to prevent it. If we can't to prevent it, at least we can reduced it from happened again.

Despite the over whelming concerns and Evidence, many people still continue to believe that global warming is just a part of the earth's natural cycle of change and has not been increased because the human activity there has only been a few disputes over the issue.

So, let us together as a human being, stop doing anything that can be factors that contribute to the global warming, if we love to live happily and peacefully. We should put the best effort to overcome this phenomenon from happened again. Together, we STOP the Global Warming!!!

Why We Choose This Topic??

Peace Be Upon You,

We ( Yusmaniza, Jannah and Am) choose this topic which is global warming because there's a reason.

1. Firstly, to increase the level of awareness amongst the people of the world that the responsible take care of the earth is in our hand.
2. Secondly, As a education towards the youth generation and future generation how to manage the earth wisely.
3. Thirdly, Main aspect is to make a social work as human being toward a better environment ahead and surroundings.
4. Lastly, To motivate people and inspire each and one of the people to make the better future.

Part 5 : SOlutions

Part 5 : The World's Role

The world's means by the people in this whole world on how to overcome this matter once and for all is actually starts with the head of the country leaders in the world. How to solve it??... based on today's world seems like no way to out of this box. Somehow there's the worlds leader can initiate more on the solutions such as Kyoto Protocol.rotocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC or FCCC), aimed at fighting global warming. The UNFCCC is an international environmental treaty with the goal of achieving "stabilization ofgreenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system.

The Protocol was initially adopted on 11 December 1997 in Kyoto, Japan and entered into force on 16 February 2005. As of November 2009, 187 states have signed and ratified the protocol.

Under the Protocol, 37 industrialized countries (called "Annex I countries") commit themselves to a reduction of four greenhouse gases (GHG) (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, sulphur hexafluoride) and two groups of gases (hydrofluorocarbons and perfluorocarbons ) produced by them, and all member countries give general commitments. Annex I countries agreed to reduce their collective greenhouse gas emissions by 5.2% from the 1990 level. Emission limits do not include emissions by international aviation and shipping, but are in addition to the industrial gases, chlorofluorocarbons, or CFCs, which are dealt with under the 1987 Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer.

Within these particular solutions, it will enhance more on the joint enforcement to reduce this matter once and for all. There's is al lot of the solution not only made United Nation, also include the joint global workforce should be enlarge to others country in the world so we can feel the differentness.

Another Effects of Global Warming

After a short reading, I found that this article is interesting for us to know that we should be cares of Global Warming's effect! There are many dangerous things that can destroyed our peaceful life, and I think we never realized that. So, as a people who cares, I posted this article from a sources that I believe. Let's make a brief reading first by skimmed and scanned the important things before knowing it more detailed...

EFFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING !!!

The planet is warming, from North Pole to South Pole, and everywhere in between. Globally, the mercury is already up more than 1 degree Fahrenheit (0.8 degree Celsius), and even more in sensitive polar regions. And the effects of rising temperatures aren’t waiting for some far-flung future. They’re happening right now. Signs are appearing all over, and some of them are surprising. The heat is not only melting glaciers and sea ice, it’s also shifting precipitation patterns and setting animals on the move.

Some impacts from increasing temperatures are already happening.

• Ice is melting worldwide, especially at the Earth’s poles. This includes mountain glaciers, ice sheets covering West Antarctica and Greenland, and Arctic sea ice.
• Researcher Bill Fraser has tracked the decline of the Adélie penguins on Antarctica, where their numbers have fallen from 32,000 breeding pairs to 11,000 in 30 years.
• Sea level rise became faster over the last century.
• Some butterflies, foxes, and alpine plants have moved farther north or to higher, cooler areas.
• Precipitation (rain and snowfall) has increased across the globe, on average.
• Spruce bark beetles have boomed in Alaska thanks to 20 years of warm summers. The insects have chewed up 4 million acres of spruce trees.

Other effects could happen later this century, if warming continues.

• Sea levels are expected to rise between 7 and 23 inches (18 and 59 centimeters) by the end of the century, and continued melting at the poles could add between 4 and 8 inches (10 to 20 centimeters).
• Hurricanes and other storms are likely to become stronger.
• Species that depend on one another may become out of sync. For example, plants could bloom earlier than their pollinating insects become active.
• Floods and droughts will become more common. Rainfall in Ethiopia, where droughts are already common, could decline by 10 percent over the next 50 years.
• Less fresh water will be available. If the Quelccaya ice cap in Peru continues to melt at its current rate, it will be gone by 2100, leaving thousands of people who rely on it for drinking water and electricity without a source of either.
• Some diseases will spread, such as malaria carried by mosquitoes.
• Ecosystems will change—some species will move farther north or become more successful; others won’t be able to move and could become extinct. Wildlife research scientist Martyn Obbard has found that since the mid-1980s, with less ice on which to live and fish for food, polar bears have gotten considerably skinnier. Polar bear biologist Ian Stirling has found a similar pattern in Hudson Bay. He fears that if sea ice disappears, the polar bears will as well.

~ EFFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING ~

Assalamualaikum and a very good morning.alhamdulillah today I have a chance to write on this page about the effects of global warming. As we known as well, global warming is very dangerous. So I’m here to share with you guys about the effects of global warming so that we can be ware to this bad phenomenon…

The planet is warming, from North Pole to South Pole, and everywhere in between. Globally, the mercury is already up more than 1 degree Fahrenheit (0.8 degree Celsius), and even more in sensitive polar regions.

Part 4: Government Ways To handle

4th : Main objective to get over this problem

The government should more take this issues seriously not just the development of the country as their first priority. The environment are needed some protection from these institution whereas the keep the ecology runs smoothly without any outlaws trespassing and misuse of power to gain wealth in a short term whilst the nature keep unsafe, unprotected, and exposed with the mother nature disaster towards human that are surrounding them. One of the solutions is re - enforcement protecting nature from poachers illegally. The government also enforcement the act by fine those poachers with highly fine for e.g in Malaysia , the government set up fine RM500,00 for each the breaks the rule based on ( Environment ACT 1974 ). The enforcement this are needed and updated each time so it will always suit in future ahead. Soon, the reserve forest in the country are fully protected from any danger activities that can threaten wildlife species such as Malay Tiger, Elephant , Rhinos, and others biodiversity in it.

In addition, the government also need the NGO's to enhance and ensure the message is clear and the people understand the importance of the nature to us. Both institution are need one another to makes a better future.

Part 3 : Solutions

3rd solutions : Society Role

Society's role undoubtedly, cant be denied because the society is huge population of people that can make a step forward to solves this once and for all. What the society has to do is how to manage from the family first. Inspiring family member to be responsible in concerned about the ecology of the nature and the benefits from nature gave to us is more important. As a head of family, the father or the mom are main to educated child to be eco - friendly and teach them how to be a an excellent on green nature. Bring the child to nature, for e.g bring them in a reserved forest or wildlife trip to somewhere in a country so the children how to take care about the earth and what's in it. Therefore, the child exposed by environment so that the child knows what the good and the bad for the earth. As a result, less and lesser consumption of the plastic bag, transportation and so forth can be seen in a future and the global warming heat down to low temperature.

Part 2 : solutions

Solutions : advance or develop a alternative sources from non harmful to nature

In my opinion, Malaysia for example is far left behind from the advance countries such a Germany, Sweden, Swiss , Britain , States, Japan , Korea and so forth that really concerned about their environment because they knows how to handle this situation. As for Malaysia, the alternative source is still new in our country, therefore waste management that can offered us become of our alternative source reducing or decrease the consumption of the fuel and coal. In the meantime fuel or oil extinction can be maintain it as the main generate electricity in future for the next 10 till 20 years.

Next, the others solutions is by usage renewable source such as usage of the solar energy in large scale for e.g in home, office, chalets, or buildings and so on. The solar is known its heat, or the temperature , light straight to our venues therefore our electricity is free of charge. And the best about this one solar energy is, it always continues without limit in during daytime, the solar energy that have been save we can use it in the night. So our bill is not expensive after all, and our budget of the month can be reduced.

In addition, others renewable source such as the wind sources. Wind will never ever out of service and so does solar. When it combine with technology, wind is useful to generate the "fan" to produce electricity and the energy of the wind channeled to houses, offices and others. Therefore the wind is more basically free from waste and gasses that effect to our earth.

The Solutions Of This Matter

1st : Reduce Emission

How we are going to solve this down once and for all. From my nutshell, this kinda solutions quite and pretty hard to do. But nothing is impossible, step by step on prevent global warming is to stopped the harmful and dangerously vehicle and others that exhale the methane, carbon dioxide and others gasses up in the air. Hence, we might shared the same cars or vehicle during the moment while went to workplaces, schools, colleagues and so forth so emissions from the vehicle can be reduced and so the global warming can be calm for a while. If we do this, the benefits can be shown this 5 - 10 years from now...If we preoccupied continued doing such thing, what goes around comes around, and so this solution as well, human themselves need to change the way their act, behavior towards the surrounding us.

Thats for the first parts..

Cheers..:)

What Contributes To Global Warming?

As human, we know that Global Warming was a very dangerous phenomenon, but...do we know what things can contributes to global warming or in another word, what are the causes?

I will give u all the answer...In the below, i have posted an article of the causes of Global Warming. Let us together think to it cleverly!

THE CAUSES OF GLOBAL WARMING

As said, the major cause of global warming is the emission of green house gases like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide etc into the atmosphere. The major source of carbon dioxide is the power plants. These power plants emit large amounts of carbon dioxide produced from burning of fossil fuels for the purpose of electricity generation. About twenty percent of carbon dioxide emitted in the atmosphere comes from burning of gasoline in the engines of the vehicles. This is true for most of the developed countries. Buildings, both commercial and residential represent a larger source of global warming pollution than cars and trucks.

Building of these structures require a lot of fuel to be burnt which emits a large amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Methane is more than 20 times as effectual as CO2 at entrapping heat in the atmosphere. Methane is obtained from resources such as rice paddies, bovine flatulence, bacteria in bogs and fossil fuel manufacture. When fields are flooded, anaerobic situation build up and the organic matter in the soil decays, releasing methane to the atmosphere. The main sources of nitrous oxide include nylon and nitric acid production, cars with catalytic converters, the use of fertilizers in agriculture and the burning of organic matter. Another cause of global warming is deforestation that is caused by cutting and burning of forests for the purpose of residence and industrialization.

Global Warming isincreasing the earth’s average temperature. The Green house gases are the main culprits of the global warming. The green house gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are playing hazards in the present times. These green house gases trap heat in earth’s atmosphere and thus result in increasing the temperature of earth. The excessive emission of these gases is the major cause of global warming.

The major source of carbon dioxide is the power plants. These power plants emit large amounts of carbon dioxide produced from burning of fossil fuels for the purpose of electricity generation. Coal is the major fuel that is burnt in these power plants. Coal produces around 1.7 times as much carbon dioxide per unit of energy when flamed as does natural gas and 1.25 times as much as oil. The coal gives out eighty percent more carbon per unit of energy it produces as compared to natural gas. Another major source of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is the emission from the cars and other vehicles. About twenty percent of carbon dioxide emitted in the atmosphere comes from burning of gasoline in the engines of the vehicles. This is true for most of the developed countries. Moreover if sports bike and vehicles that are essentially designed for rough terrain, emit more carbon dioxide when used for general purpose on roads. It is always better to use vehicles designed for city driving on the city roads.

Buildings, both commercial and residential represent a larger source of global warming pollution than cars and trucks. Building of these structures require a lot of fuel to be burnt which emits a large amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

The second major greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide, which causes global warming, is Methane. Methane is more than 20 times as effectual as CO2 at entrapping heat in the atmosphere. Methane is obtained from resources such as rice paddies, bovine flatulence, bacteria in bogs and fossil fuel manufacture. Almost in all parts of the world, rice is grown on flooded fields. When fields are flooded, anaerobic situation build up and the organic matter in the soil decays, releasing methane to the atmosphere. Nitrous oxide, which is a colorless gas with a sweet odour, is another green house gas. The main sources of nitrous oxide include nylon and nitric acid production, cars with catalytic converters, the use of fertilizers in agriculture and the burning of organic matter. Greater emissions of nitrous oxides in the recent decades is leading global warming

Another major cause of global warming is deforestation. Deforestation is to be blamed for 25% of all carbon dioxide release entering the atmosphere, by the cutting and burning of about 34 million acres of trees each year.Trees collect the CO2 that we breathe out and give away from various other sources, and they give back oxygen that we breathe in. Thus, cutting of trees is leading to greater concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Greater urbanization, requirement of land for factories and buildings, requirement of timber are all reasons that are leading to deforestation, which in turn is leading to global warming.

What Is Global Warming???

Not clear yet about this issue?
What is Global Warming actually?

There are many definitions of Global Warming that's given by all the researchers. One source that i have found give the meaning of Global Warming like in the below...
Maybe this article will give us some information about what is global warming real was!

The question about the definition for global warming or in other words "what is global warming" is relatively easy to answer. We hereby lean at the definitions and explanations given in Wikipedia:

Global warming is the observed and projected increases in the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans. The Earth's average temperature rose about 0.6° Celsius (1.1° Fahrenheit) in the 20th century.

Source : http://timeforchange.org/


Another Article that i've found....


In the current day lexicon of scientists, global warming isn’t really a term of use anymore. The reason for this is that we have come to understand that the effect of the changes we make to our environment will increase the temperature in many locations on the planet, but will also cool a few places. In light of this, the thing you know of as global warming is actually referred to as global climate change. Over all, however, the world is definitely warming.

We need a simple definition for global warming, one that gets the gist without excluding the simplicities. The simplest and most accurate definition is that global warming is the effect greenhouse gases have on the earth’s climate. Greenhouse gases include, but are not limited to, carbon dioxide and methane. While this sounds like a simple definition, there are a couple of key things to realize.

First, global warming is both a natural phenomena and one created by man. Put another way, greenhouse gases are a natural part of the biosphere and would exist if man did not. Indeed, they are a critical component to the existence of life on this planet. If greenhouse gases didn’t exist, the temperature on planet earth would average zero degrees! Naturally occurring gases, however, keep the temperature at a much more livable 59 degrees.

So, if global warming occurs naturally, what is the big panic about? The problem we are facing is the volume of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These gases act as thermal blankets for the atmosphere. The more gas in the atmosphere, the thicker the blanket and the less heat escapes. Over the last 80 years, we have been pumping massive amounts of greenhouse gases into the sky. At the same time, we have been reducing forestation around the planet, the primary plant collection that sucks greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere. This double whammy is starting to show negative results, the increased heating of our world.

The ultimate question with global warming is what will happen as the planet heats up. We are already seeing signs with the retreat of the glaciers. Glacier National Park, for instance, is going to have to be renamed since it has already lost 65 percent of all of its glaciers! While the exact end result of global warming is not clear, we can expect major climatic changes over the next 80 years.

Well, you were looking for a definition for global warming. As long winded as this one is, it is as definitive as you are going to find.

An Introduction

What is global warming actually?Definition of global warming is gradual increase of the temperature of the earth's lower atmosphere as a result of the increase in greenhouse gases since the Industrial Revolution.

The temperature of the atmosphere near the earth's surface is warmed through a natural process called the greenhouse effect. Visible, shortwave light comes from the sun to the earth, passing unimpeded through a blanket of thermal, or greenhouse, gases composed largely of water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. Infrared radiation reflects off the planet's surface toward space but does not easily pass through the thermal blanket. Some of it is trapped and reflected downward, keeping the planet at an average temperature suitable to life, about 60°F (16°C)
