They came up with ideas like "dilution" that made the situation worse affected the wildlife. after decades in 1992 world nations signed the United Nation Framework convention on climate change (UNFCCC) to prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference.

However, as the utilitarianism theory suggests, the locus of right and wrong is basically dependent on the consequences of choosing one action over other actions. Mr. Al Gore in his movie uses several claims to help educate human beings on their possible role in ensuring that they maintain practices that will help in preventing “dangerous” climate change. According to Gore, the changes that are noted in the climate are not beneficial and are harmful in general to human survival.

    Global warming or climate change is the gradual increase of Earth’s temperature over time, through the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is the rising carbon level in the atmosphere, trapping radiation, and heating the Earth. Humans are depending on fossil fuels that release these emissions. Though we have increasingly started depending on renewable resources that don’t release these harmful gases into the atmosphere, we can already see the effects today and if this doesn’t stop now the planet will be destroyed. The human intervention that people have depended on with the environment is destroying the Earth.…
