The End is Neigh! – Carbon Dioxide hits 400ppm

GENEVA, Switzerland, May 26 – The World Meteorological Association announced that the average monthly concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the northern hemisphere exceeded 400ppm in April, the highest monthly average record of all time. The WMO’s officials are according to the WMO’s release saying CO2 levels has risen more than 40 percent. Because plants absorb more carbon dioxide during summer when their foliage is more dense and plentiful, CO2 levels is higher during spring. Saying this, We could conclude that the CO2 level might be more than 400ppm as the towards the end of spring.

The cause of this situation is the constantly rising numbers of industrial factory and cars that produce gas emissions. This emission is defined as the burning of fossil fuels and said carbon emission greatly contributes to climate change.

The bad news is CO2 can remain in the atmosphere for hundreds of years and even longer in the ocean, so. Ocean is one of the primary source of our food. Marine species also needs oxygen just like how human needs it.  I can conclude that this is one of the factor why there are so many cases of fish kill.

These two videos made me realized what problems we are facing and how bad the situation is becoming.

1.)Oras Na (A special documentary madeby GMAnetwork – this a video documentary showing the slow death of the bodies of water.

 2.)Fish Eating Birds are Dying because of Human Waste – this video will show you a sad truth about how a bird specie is dying because of human trash.

I am calling to all of the authorities worldwide to bind ourselves and clean our air. Let’s just make a plan and cooperate. Besides, this campaign is for all of us and for the next generation. if you are very fond of going to world class beaches like Boracay, then maybe you should participate and include yourself in this campaign.  It might be too late for us if we’ll not start and act today!
