●Winner from IMHS, third prize : Kario Emta - 『Global Warming』 Global warming is affected largely by industrialized countries. In talking about industrialized countries they can be referred to as most developed countries where many kinds of factories operate 24 hours or non-stop with their funnels fuming out smoke in mass clouds. Almost every country in the world is contributing to the affect of global warming. In most developed countries, every machine that runs on the road, on the river or sea are helping a lot to contribution pollution to the global warming that they burn up oxygen and produce carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. In these process the ozone layer began to wear out or becoming thinner which increase the global warming. When global warming is increasing temperature affect the earth, believed that the north and south poles began to melt which temperature's increases the sea level rise. Most low islands in the Pacific will be affected. For example, one is the problem arising from spilled oil from power plants. For instance, when oil is drained out to the land, it would go through the water level and this will contaminate the drinking water. The plants in that area would be affected and eventually die. This could affect the lives of human beings in terms of food crops and especially the drinking water. If this problem can not be prevented, the lives of trees, food crops, animals and human being would be put at risk. In some countries, the government had set up a task force whose job is to supervise the disposal of waste such as oil, chemicals, etc., that can affect the environment. Second point is problems caused by waste disposal at sea. Some sea vessels or ships dispose their waste at sea. These waste consist of plastic, metals, oil, etc., that can affect the sea environment. From these waste some of them were poisonous and would affect the lives of the fish and other sea creature which were edible. From the catches from some fishing vessels, amongst them were poisoned. These catches were sold and people consumed them without knowing that some of them were poisoned. After some time people began to develop health problems. This is mainly caused by disposing waste at sea.
