Kilimanjaro

Africa

This is the Kilimanjaro in Africa. In the past, the hilltop was always covered with snow.

Page 3: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Kilimanjaro

Africa

But now the snow is almost be gone.

Page 4: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

1970 2000

Kilimanjaro

Africa

Here have two pictures can show me the status of snow vanish obviously…

In the left side, we have the kilimajro in 1970, and the right is it in 2000…

It be calculated that the kilimajro will never have snows before 2015.

Upsala Glacier South America Andes in Argentina

1928

2004

Transfer the scene to South America. It’s same as above.

This is the Unsala Glacier in Argentina.

The glacier use to be so extensive in 1928, then it had became a huge lake in 2004.

Page 6: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Qori Kalis GlacierSouth America Andes in Peru

1978

The Andes, South America.

This is the Qori Kalis Glacier – the largest ice outlet from the Quelccaya icecap in Peru’s southeast corner.

This is the picture in 1978.

Page 7: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Qori Kalis GlacierSouth America Andes in Peru

2000

This is the picture in 2000.

The glacier is vanishing in alarming speed.

Every year diminish 155 meter averagely from 1998 to 2001, it is estimated to be melt away in 2020.

Page 8: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

In recent years, the harm of natural calamities is more critical then before…

Page 9: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Heat Wave

Europe

Time: 2003 summer

Fatalities ≥ 35,000 total

The summer in 2003, heat weave attack Europe and cause over 35,000 people died.

The color in this picture indicate the Change of temperature in Europe from the average. The most deep red part is 10℃ higher then the same period before.

The Hurricane Katrina

Page 11: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Hurricane Katrina

North America

Formed: August 23, 2005

Dissipated: August 31, 2005

Highest winds: 175 mph (280 km/h)

Damage: $81.2 billion

Fatalities ≥ 1,836 total

Page 12: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Besides storm, flood also harm the world violently.

Page 13: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Maharashtra floodsAsia - India

Time: July, 2005

Fatalities ≥ 1,000 total

Rainfall: 944mm(37.2in) within 24hrs on 26 July

Page 14: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Drought

Africa - Kenya

Somewhere have too much water, and the other place just be the antipole.

Page 15: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Lake Chad

Africa - Chad

It was one of the largest lakes in the world when first surveyed by Europeans in 1823

The surface area of the lake has decreased from 9,650 square miles (25,000 km2) in 1963 to 521 (1,350 km2) today

Page 16: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Polar Bear

Arctic

Scientists first time find the drowned polar bear. Polar bear is very good at swimming.

In the Arctic Ocean, the area covered by sea ice declined by about 6 percent from 1978 to 1995. By this speed, all the ice in the Arctic Ocean will be melted at 2040.

Page 17: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Ice Shelf

Antarctica

During 2002-01-31–2002-03-07 the Larsen B ice shelf collapsed and broke up. 3250km² of ice 200m thick broke off.

The shelf had previously been stable for 10,000 years.

Page 18: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

What cause the above calamity?

Page 19: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

The answer is –

Global warming

Page 20: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

2000 Year Temperature Comparison

Global Temperature Comparison

This change curve of temperature is reconstructed from many past research record.

Appreciably, we are facing the unusual high temperature …and the curve even still trending up.

Page 21: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Global Temperature Comparison

The high temperature is not only occur in the surface of earth. In the ocean, the temperature also climbing in a unusual trend.

Page 22: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Hurricane

The sea water with high temperature offers abundant energy to storm, and consequently bring more powerful and ghastly storm.

When it crossed southern Florida, Hurricane Katrina just a moderate category 1 hurricane

Then, she came to the Gulf of Mexico before left for New Orleans

The sea water with high temperature provide powerful energy for her

More higher temperature cause more higher winds and more higher moisture

Finally, she caused the devastating damage as we know when she arrived in New Orleans

The case is not only happen to hurricane but also to typhoon and even tornado

Page 23: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Floods

The other effect come from global warming is the increase of precipitation

The abundant moisture is vaporized from ocean then fall in the rain form

Too much…and rushing downpour causes flood.

Page 24: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Evaporation not only occur in ocean but also in land

Then cause drought

Page 25: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Drought

Where the ship in had been a landlocked endorheic sea in Central Asia

Aral Sea, it was the world’s 4th-largest lake in 1960

Page 26: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

The speeding melt iceberg

Why the polar iceberg such huge and thickness but melts so fast?

Under the downpour from sunlight, ice can reflex about 90% sunlight then keep cool

Conversely, water – no matter sea water or fresh water – will absorb about 90% sunlight, thus cause the temperature rise

In this figure, where the deep blue is sea water, and the light blue one is the fresh water from melting iceberg

Water’s temperature rise cause ice melts, then the melted water absorb more heat

Consequently the melting speed will be faster and faster

Page 27: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Broken ice shelf

This is a model of ice sheet

The melted water in the surface of ice sheet cause Moulin, which carry the melted water from the face to bottom of ice sheet.

the water from moulins may help lubricate the base of the glacier and consequently affectingglacier broken, that’s why the Larsen B ice-shelf collapsed and broken up widely in 35 days.

Page 28: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

This is the scene in Greenland

Water mixing with ice and cause a rushing river.

Page 29: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Disappearing Greenland

The Greenland is disappearing rapidly.

If Greenland is melted fully, the global sea level will rise to about 20 ft.

That will be a big disaster.

Page 30: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Rising Sea Level

1985

1986

1995

The Shoreline of Chatham, Mass.

From 1985, 1986…then…1995

The area of land has diminished appreciably.

Page 31: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Rising Sea Level

This is the Curve of rising sea level.

It shows a significant climbing trend.

Page 32: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Ocean Current

Ocean current plays a very important role in determining the climates of the continents. It’s the key mechanism to keep global thermal balance.

The red one here is the warmer current, and the blue one is cold current.

Page 33: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Ocean Current

When the warm current meet the freezing air in the Arctic, new sea ice forms and releases salt, then the waters become denser because of salt and sink to form artic halocline.

Page 34: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

Ocean Current

Melting sea ice brings more fresh water into ocean. Fresh water dilute denser salty sea water then interrupt ocean current.

Someday, too fresh water into ocean…for example, the Greenland melts, that will probably to discontinue the ocean circulating system.

When the global thermal exchange mechanism is shutdown, then…

Ocean Current

A new glacier epoch will be coming soon…

Carbon Dioxide Variations

The industrial revolution occurred roughly between 1760 and 1830

Carbon dioxide (CO2) levels in the atmosphere have risen by 31% since pre-industrial times from 280ppmv (parts per million by volume) to over 370ppmv today. the variations in concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2)

in the atmosphere during the last 400 thousand years

Competitiveness is a matter of vital importance to a corporate.A matter of success and failure.

The road either to survival or to ruin.

Butthere is one supremely important goal

beyond the competitiveness; business struggle and trickfor permanent existence of each species on this earth.

That will absolutely becooperating to preserve the natural resources each other

Let’s work together, it is imperative to act now.

Page 53: There has been an earth for a little more a billion years as for the end of it - Albert Einstein.

That’s the why we stand here making an effortagainst the climate change with you.

Your participate, Our respect;

Your choice, Our appreciation.
