Abstract
In this article, we aim to spread the need for change by informing the reader about global warming and its consequences. Global warming is a phenomenon in which average global temperatures rise due to the increase in greenhouse gases (GHG) emitted and trapped in the atmosphere. These specific gases are special in that they contribute to the flow of heat within the atmosphere as they trap more heat from the sun within the atmosphere. The most influential of these gases is CO2, which most of the data analysis in this article will be focusing on. There are many issues and problems that are attributed to global warming, along with a wide array of data that relates to the topic. By analyzing such data, one can find out the global trend in climate change and even come up with potential solutions for this increasingly threatening event. The lack of action taken by world leaders is due to general negligence and a lack of an effective and coherent solution to tackle climate change. A probable solution would be to find a surrogate to the main cause of GHG emissions, which is the substantial exploitation of conventional (nonrenewable) energy sources. Renewable energy sources are excellent substitutes to conventional energy sources and one of the most effective types is wind. This energy source is currently implemented in many areas around the globe and is producing better results than in the past when conventional energy sources were in use. Although wind turbines are more efficient than solar panels in producing electricity because they are not affected by the presence of sunlight, the amount of electricity generated can fluctuate due to various factors. To adjust to these varying conditions, machine learning regression algorithms can be managed to create a wind power forecasting model that predicts how much electricity can be produced on that day according to the varying factors; it will allow people to be less dependent on those factors. This article explores the trends for climate change and the avenues for change. It must be noted that averting one’s gaze away from this urgent issue resolves nothing.
Highlights
Global Warming is a phenomenon in which the average annual global temperature increases
As more and more greenhouse gases (GHG) are present within the atmosphere, the amount of heat trapped within the atmosphere increases, resulting in global warming
The key to resolve and amend the problem of global warming would be to find an alternative to the cause of GHG emissions, which includes the mass utilization of conventional energy sources
Summary
Global Warming is a phenomenon in which the average annual global temperature increases. The global warming we face today differs in that it is not natural - rather, it is caused by human activity [2]. Even a small increase in the average annual global temperature can have detrimental environmental consequences that affect both humanity and mother nature. Global warming will devastate many low-lying population centers and. As more and more GHGs are present within the atmosphere, the amount of heat trapped within the atmosphere increases, resulting in global warming. The key to resolve and amend the problem of global warming would be to find an alternative to the cause of GHG emissions, which includes the mass utilization of conventional energy sources. Renewable energy allows the mitigation of GHG emissions and alleviating the severity of global warming [9]. As the conversion from nonrenewable to renewable energy sources by 100% is possible via technological improvements, the world as a whole could seek all ecological, social, political benefits, and more [10]
