Wildfires, Sea Level Rise, Coral Bleaching Denote 2016 Was The Hottest Year Ever Recorded

The rapid growth of human civilization is now directly affecting on Nature. Wildfires, melting the ice of Antarctica, sea level rising all are the result of global warming. NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration announced on Wednesday that,2016 was the hottest year ever recorded.

Both agencies admitted that the temperature rising is caused by the human. Carbon Dioxide(CO2), Carbon Monoxide(CO), Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) and other greenhouse gas emitted by various automobile vehicles, factories, power plants are causing temperatures to climb upward. Here is a list of some effects caused by the global temperature rising:

Wildfire in the west

The rate of wildfires dramatically increased over the last 30 years in the west. Since 1980’s human-caused warming doubled the area of the burn. According to Los Angeles Times, over 16,000 square miles of the area got burned which is equivalent to the combined area of Massachusetts and Connecticut.
Plants and trees get dry quickly in warm weather condition and dry leaves and twigs are burn prone when it just get a spark it starts to burn and spreads fire like a chain reaction.
