Global warming is a matter of great concern that is unfortunately quite often overlooked in light of other problems that seem to be more immediately demanding. There are many problems that are causing global warming, and if they are not solved or at least prevented from now on, there are going to be some severe ramifications in the near future. Greenhouse gases, holes in the ozone layer, and the decay of the atmosphere are just a few of the problems that need to be at the very least understood by the people.

Greenhouse gases are chemical compounds that are found in the atmosphere. Because of their chemical makeup, they allow energy from the sun to enter the atmosphere freely. Greenhouse gases absorb this infrared radiation and trap the heat in the atmosphere.

A family is the first school in which a child receives the basic values of life. He learns good manners in this basic social unit. The morals and values learned in family become our guiding force. They make our character and lay the foundation of our thinking. I feel fortunate to have been born in a family where values are traced in early childhood.

I belong to a middle-class family. There are six members in my family: my parents, my grandparents, my younger sister, and I. Our grandfather is the head of the family, and he enjoys a commanding position. His decision is final in family matters. Nobody dares to go against him. Everybody respects him and his judgment is never influenced by others.

My father is a tough police officer. He is sincere and hard-working and always goes to work in time. My mother is a simple housewife. She is a postgraduate in English and is soft-natured and caring. She looks after my grandparents. Since she is religious and God-fearing, she always helps the poor and the needy.

My family has been known for its discipline and values. We give great importance to morals in life. Since our early childhood, my sister and I have been taught to respect the elders and love children. We learned the lessons of punctuality and honesty from our grandfather. It is due to the good education of our grandparents that we could perform well both in sports and education. Since our childhood, we have developed the habit of rising early in the morning. This has a natural effect on our health and physical fitness.

My family is like heaven. There is peace, prosperity, love, and care. The instructions of the elders are followed with great respect. If a member has some problems, the whole family is beside him.
