intro Global warming is happening. Over the past century, the global average temperature has raised by around 0.6 degree Celsius. (1,2) Temperature rising is caused by humans due to the need of electricity. People have been burning fossil fuels to generate electricity for thousands of years and causing a global issue. (13,14)The rising of temperature affects the entire ecology because most of the animals and plants have to live in specific climate and condition. The change may cause decline or even extinction to species because of the unfamiliar habitat. (1)
What is Global Warming? Global warming represents the global average temperature is rising gradually and caused by the excess amount of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, sodium dioxide and nitrogen oxide, which flouts to the top of atmosphere. Then, the layer of gases blocks the heat from escaping Earth and as time goes longer, the temperature rises due to the heat from sunlights which has stored in Earth. (9)
History of Generating Electricity Although there is no reliable record stated the first use of fossil fuels, it is believed that people have been burning them to improve our lives for more than nine thousands years. (13) After the Industrial Revolution in 18th century, burning …show more content…
(9) Despite the fact that burning fossil fuels is the cheapest and most efficient way, the government understands the consequence of that. Therefore, it has started to use renewable energy sources, including hydropower, geothermal and solar energy, 1990. (9) Although the achievement was not shocking because coal combustion was still their main way to generate electricity, they were making progress. By 2010, Turkey has increased the amount of electrical energy production by an average of 8.4% annually. Nevertheless, around 25% of Turkey’s total electoral energy production is produced from hydropower.
