Introduction Global warming refers to a form of climate change that results in an increase in the average temperature of the lower part of the earth’s atmosphere (Jian-Bin et al. 37). Global warming is real and is happening all over the earth 's surface despite varied opinions from conspiracies. It’s secondary to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide (CO2), water vapor and methane gas among others (Shepherd 10). The primary gas that has contributed to the greenhouse…
interact with one another, however human activities are having a greater impact on global warming. There is evidence that human beings are changing Earth’s climate unnaturally. Ninety-Seven percent of scientist have agreed that global climate has undergone an irregular occurrence and changed drastically over the last 100 years so it can no longer be claimed as unimportant. The question now acknowledged by most scientist is how much human activities have affected our global climate and what can be done…
Global warming is the gradual rise in temperature of the air and water near the earth 's surface. The average temperature of the earth has risen about 1 degree Celsius over the past 100 years. Even though many people believe they know why this is happening, the exact cause is unknown. It could be caused by human activity; it may be caused by natural events, and probably is caused by a combination of the two. Some believe greenhouse gases caused by human activity are the main reason…
Nowadays, global warming is a term that is widely used by everyone; however most people do not know what it means. Global warming is a phenomenon for which the average temperature of the earth’s atmosphere and the oceans is increasing because of the high concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2). The rise in CO2 in the earth atmosphere has been observed since the industrial revolution began and it is projected to continue rising. According to America's Climate Choices "The average temperature of the…
Global Warming: Caused By Humans Earth is a sacred place. One single planet to house seven billion individuals, and that number is constantly growing. If the planet is damaged then there is no way of getting a new one. Elisabeth Corrall’s article “Global Warming is Happening Now” states that Earth’s average temperature has risen one and a half degrees fahrenheit over the past century, and it is estimated to rise another half to eight and a half degrees fahrenheit in the next one hundred years (Corrall)…
Today, global warming has been the most controversial issues of human being for the past 50 years. Global warming is an increase in the average temperature of the atmosphere near the Earth 's surface, and it is already happening and represents one of the greatest environmental threats that the planet is having to suffer. Every year, more than billion tons of carbon dioxide are released into the atmosphere by human activities. This leads to the increase of greenhouse gasses as well as changes in global…
Ways to Prevent Global Warming Global Warming is a term used to describe an increase in average temperature of Earth’s surface, Atmosphere and oceans. Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emits into the atmosphere, also caused by burning of fossil fuel and deforestation. Average temperature around the world has increased by 0.75 Celsius. in past 100 years. David G Victor said in his book that global temperature around the world has been increasing rapidly. In the past…
Is Human Activity Responsible for Global Warming? Over the last century, the global temperature of the Earth had changed drastically. Before the industrial revolution, the Earth’s climate changed due to natural factors rather than human activities; variation in sunlight and volcanic eruption were the natural causes of climate changes in the past. While these natural causes are still in play today, however, their influences are too small compare to human activities ("Is Current Warming Natural?")…
Our planet is dying, and scientists are blaming human activities for global warming that is causing the destruction of the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the land on which we live. This report will address the severity of this problem and offer solutions as to what your company can do to help slow down, and eventually stop, the ruination of our beloved world we all call home. Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, “humans have increased atmospheric CO2 concentration by a…
Global warming has been a widely talked about subject for many years. Although it has become such a controversial topic, it is indisputable that there has been a change in the climate in recent history and continues to do so. Over the past one hundred and thirty- five years that data has been collected, copious amounts of climatologists have piloted research and investigations that proves global warming is an ongoing threat to Earth as a result of humans negligence. Furthermore, there is a mounting…
