Climate Change. Be aware!

Every single person living in this world shouldn't be outdated on what is happening into the place where they live. The issue on climate change in really alarming. According to the information that i have read in the internet, the problem on ocean acidification is a big  threat to marine life. After such years, what would be the effect if all of our oceans will be like that? Here's some article for you to read. Credits to the writer.


Ocean acidification is enormous threat to marine life because it impairs the ability of marine organisms such as corals and mollusks to form their skeletons or shells, and these marine organisms play key role in enabling the proper functioning of marine food chain.


If ocean acidification continues world will soon experience huge biodiversity loss in our oceans and seas. This is because such rapid increase in acidity leaves very little time for marine species to adapt.

The natural rate of change in climate has always left enough time for many species to adapt but this is no case with man-made climate change. The researcher Tobias Friedrich at the the International Pacific Research Center, University of Hawaii explained this by saying that "when Earth started to warm 17,000 years ago, terminating the last glacial period, atmospheric CO2 levels rose from 190 parts per million (ppm) to 280 ppm over 6,000 years. Marine ecosystems had ample time to adjust. Now, for a similar rise in CO2 concentration to the present level of 392 ppm, the adjustment time is reduced to only 100 – 200 years."

The only way to stop further ocean acidification is to drastically reduce the amount of carbon emissions on global level and this can be achieved only with very strict international climate deal. Judging by the latest climate change talks new climate deal is very low on political agenda of world leaders, well behind global financial woes that seem to be taking all the attention.

New Year, New Me!

           There is a saying from the Movie, Kung Fu Panda,  that i will never forget: Yesterday was a history. Tomorrow is a Mystery. But today is a gift. That's why it is called present. I can relate this into life. Well, goodbye 2011 and so with the old me. Hello 2012, welcome new me!
           For this year, i really do have a lot of new year's resolution. I want to change every negative thing within me. From the character traits up to physical appearance. In other words, I wanna change for the better! I belong to the other little or small girls out there who badly wishes to gain height and weight. And because of that, i need and i should avoid to stay up late at night. Eat plenty 3 times a day. Avoid using mobile phone and the internet that much. And many more. Im already tired on jumping and jumping at exactly 12:00 am, January 1! Duh! I feel sick whenever they say that i can gain height by doing that crazy thing. Weirdo! I wanna change my hairstyle. Hang-out with friends, and enjoy every moment with them. Set aside the things which makes my mind explode. Just like other says. Live Love Laugh. :)
