Aquecimento global uma abordagem para o ensino de física

Abstract

Humanity has been living in new times lately, permeated by preservation and awareness. Global warming, in turn, refers to the high increase in the Earth's average temperature. Even though it is a subject that does not configure a consensus in the scientific community, several researchers believe that this phenomenon has been aggravated in recent times. The main consequences of global warming are rising sea levels, melting polar ice caps, reduction of water resources, and various climatic anomalies, such as hurricanes and El Niño. Faced with this reality, this scientific article has the general objective of presenting a didactic approach to climate change, global warming. This is a serious problem worthy of many discussions in order to clarify several doubts that permeate the subject and consequently generate concern for the competent authorities. The exploratory research carried out here adopted a documental and bibliographic procedure, based on virtual encyclopedias, electronic articles, books, publications, newspapers, virtual documents, magazines, regulations, and specific legislation. And as far as the approach is concerned, it was qualitative.
