Global warming effects on marine life

Global warming and marine life issues
Condensed: "Refrigerant gas is a major cause of climate change. As this gas is used to run air-conditioning systems, run commercial refrigeration units and HVAC systems, it represents a very common emission. The gas is composed of hydrochlorofluorocarbons and chlorofluorocarbons, which contribute to global warming. The United States and many foreign countries insist that its usage is phased out, with a target date for completion of 2015. Common pollutants in our society include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and black carbon and these pollutants are a cause of climate change. As they grow, the Earth's protective layer becomes damaged and this results in global warming. Scientists paint a doomsday scenario, where global warming will destroy the planet if no action is taken. Simply put, too much heat stored in the atmosphere is the cause of climate change. The amount of greenhouse gases in the air contributes to atmospheric heat. Overwhelming heat can create significant changes in the Earth?s climate, affecting both land and ocean. As a result, human, animal, plant and marine life will be severely impacted." Read entire article
