research has shown, every year our global climate is getting warmer. Yet to many people, this issue has not affected their own lives. So why worry about global warming? Many scientists have done research on global warming, and what began to cause it. Scientists can also predict what will happen to our planet if global warming continues. Research has shown that global warming is not all affected by natural causes. Currently, scientists are researching global warming predictions, but the…
will be generating twenty-seven percent of electricity worldwide (Pinner). Using more solar power means that less emissions will be released and the Earth will not be as polluted. People can do many small things to assist in the fight against a warming climate. The list of green initiatives is practically endless. Switch light bulbs to compact fluorescents. These bulbs last much longer than normal light bulbs. These bulbs also use less energy than regular light bulbs. When light bulbs are more…
What can humans do to help reduce global warming? It might sound like a dumb statement but there is actually a lot of action that humans can take on to help out with global warming, but some of us either don’t know it or are unaware of this major ongoing problem that affects all of us. For example, we can choose to go green in our homes or bigger complexes such as apartments by the doing the most minimum changes to your house by doing things such as switching from the normal light bulbs to the…
Cause and effects of Climate Change. General purpose: to inform. Specific purpose: After listening my speech my audience will know what is climate change, what causes it and its effects? Thesis Statement: Climate change is a very important issue that affects all of us. Organization pattern: Cause and effect. Introduction: I. (Attention-getter): How do you explain that 30 years ago we had a different weather than today? When you look at yourself in a dirty mirror; can you see your image…
significant enough to create a new epoch called the anthropocene. Meanwhile, Idso et al. argue that climate change is a naturally occurring phenomenon within normal ranges, which will be beneficial to the environment. Both articles focus on the origins and effects of climate change; however, Steffen et al. focus on human influence on CO2 levels and their negative impact on the climate, while Idso et al. argue that climate change is naturally occurring and can be beneficial. The transition…
it’s scientific name is, Ursus Maritimus. It’s physical characteristics are that it is white, six to nine feet and 800 to 1,300 pounds. It feeds upon seals and fish for nutrients. The polar bear population is decreasing drastically because of global warming and is at an all time low of about 22,000. Even though they live most of their lives in the water, their home is on the ice nursing and taking care of their cubs. They were marked as threatened species under the Endangered Species Act in May…
Global warming and climate change are a result of the lifestyle and actions humans have taken over the past one hundred years and through the industrialization era. The burning of fossil fuels in an industrial setting and through divining cars increases the CO2 levels in the atmosphere and consequently warms the Earth. Cutting down and burning forests also has a large impact on global warming and climate change. Trees intake carbon dioxide and release oxygen, so when forests are cut down, the…
Global Warming, a Reality or a Myth There is a growing concern on the conditions of the Arctic when factoring Global Warming. Most scientists believe the last 50 years of constant temperature changes in the world is due to human activity and the burning of fossil fuels. Many also take in the natural factors, for example, variations in the solar radiation, where major volcanic interactions and eruptions between the ocean and the atmosphere. Many people on earth do not understand the importance of…
Today in the United States of America there is great a divide amongst the population when it comes to Global Warming. One in four Americans thinks Global warming isn’t happening (Climate Change In The American Mind). This is mind-blowing since 97 percent of publishing climate scientist agree that human activity has affected the Earth’s climate they also agree that we are seeing the effects of climate change now (Climate Change In The American Mind). We as humans have a moral obligation to take…
increasing interest in ‘carbon foot printing ’ comes as a result of growing public awareness of global warming . The global community they know that it need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to not effect on climate change. Greenhouse gases affect on the earth’s atmosphere to retain heat. Higher greenhouse gas concentrations in the earth’s atmosphere cause global warming through this ‘ greenhouse effect ’. Climate Change has identified six greenhouse gases whose atmospheric…
