Definitions of Global Warming- An increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere (especially a sustained increase that causes climatic changes).
- An increase in the earth's atmospheric and oceanic temperatures widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution.
- The progressive gradual rise of the earth's surface temperature thought to be caused by the greenhouse effect and responsible for changes in global climate patterns. An increase in the near surface temperature of the Earth.
- The changes in the surface air temperature, referred to as the global temperature, brought about by the enhanced greenhouse effect, which is induced by emissions of greenhouse gases into the air.
- The term given to the major consequence of the greenhouse effect. Scientists have long predicted and recently measured notable increases in the world's temperature.
- An increase in the average worldwide temperature primarily caused by fossil fuel burning and an increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
- A process that raises the air temperature in the lower atmosphere due to heat trapped by greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, CFCs and ozone.
- A gradual warming of the earth's surface temperature reportedly caused by the emission of gases that trap the sun's heat in the earth's atmosphere. The burning of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
- The warming of the atmosphere, or more properly the increase over time in average annual global temperature. Reasons probably include increased greenhouse gas content, orbit fluctuations increasing insolation and a decrease in global dimming.
- The concern that a build-up of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (beyond those levels required to sustain temperatures to support life on the planet) will result in catastrophic changes to the earth’s climate patterns.
- A popular term used to describe the increase in average global temperatures due to the greenhouse effect.
- An overall increase in world temperatures which may be caused by additional heat being trapped by greenhouse gases.
- Refers to the gradual changes in global weather patterns observed by researchers that suggest mean temperatures are rising planetwide.
- A rise in the Earth’s temperature, often used with respect to the observed increase since the early 20th century.
- The theory that the world's average temperature is increasing due to the burning of fossil fuels and other forms of energy resulting in higher
Cycle Batu Pahat Groups was started on 1 August 2008.Cycle Batu Pahat Groups is an active mountain bike club at Batu Pahat. A group of five people who love the cycling activities on road and off road. The members usually participate in the mountain biking activities around Singapore,Johor and Melaka. All the activities was post at Cycle Batu Pahat Groups official blog. www.cyclebatupahat.blogspot.com
Cycling Around Johore is a campaign to create awareness among people about global warming. Three members of Cycle Batu Pahat Groups will touring on mountain bike around Johore continuosly for 9th consecutive days. Start from Batu Pahat to Pontian on Day 1, Pontian to Kota tinggi on Day 2, Kota Tinggi to Desaru on Day 3, Desaru to Mawai on Day 4, Mawai to Mersing on Day 5, Mersing to Kluang on Day 6, Kluang to Segamat on Day 7, Segamat to Muar on day 8 and from Muar back to Batu Pahat on the last day. Total Distance is a about 730 kilomethre.
23 - 28 AUGUST 2009
Beautiful Mountain views like this will be both cruel and kind on Day 2.
After completion of day 3 why not take a dip in the ocean at Betano to freshen up?
Not all the roads are paved and you will be crossing occasional river beds and washouts, so definitely a mountain bike required for this race.
