Global Citizenship Essay

Third using scare tactics like global warming in order to prove their theory or theories in order to get the attention of the people, thus impacting both the spread of the gospel and misleading others in the hermeneutics of the Bible. It’s is my opinion that the way environmentalist (both professional, and non-professional) go about using scripture to prove their case is wrong. First you cannot take a passage like Romans 1:20 which says: “For since the…

Global Warming: Problems and Solutions Global warming is defined as “a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth 's atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, CFCs, and other pollutants.” by the Oxford Dictionary. This means that due to the effects of pollutants in the atmosphere the temperature of the earth is rising in a process called the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is what happens when solar radiation…

Effects of Global Warming on Arctic Regions According to the reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, we must cut the worldwide use of fossil fuels by at least 90% if mankind is to have any chance of stopping global warming. The gases that are released from fossil fuels get trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere like a heated dome known as the greenhouse effect. The condensed heat melts or dissolves all the glacier and ice in the Arctic regions. The sudden change of climate can have…

of being so tired of hearing about global warming and the constant barrage of turning it into the crisis that is about to occur, may have caused this particular region of the country to fail to understand the reality of global warming and to take a backseat to wanting to understand what the threat actually means to the climate on the whole. It is within the grasp of every human being who owns a computer or has access to a public one, to find out the basis of global warming. The information might…

Is global climate change real? Although many scientific experts believe that it is in fact real, there is still a percentage of people who consider it to be a rather fictitious idea. It has been a question of continuous debate and will always continue to be, until one day it hits us in the face and changes our environment and the way we live so drastically that life as we once knew would be history. Then the question is going to be, why didn’t we do anything? Even though there is a percentage of…

Overview The Earth goes through many natural changes like sea levels slightly changing, earthquakes, and tornadoes. Global warming has greatly increased and became one of biggest contributors to the changes on the Earth. Immediately I decided I wanted to learn more about global warming. Global warming has changed climate a lot since when I was younger. Right now it is December 18th and we have no snow. I think this is the first winter that we have had no snow; usually there is so much that we…

Climate Change; Explained By NASA Some people think “climate change” is a fancy word invented to cover up “global warming.” Global warming sounds so scary, but climate change sounds like something we can help combat or something less scary than the thought of our planet burning up because of a hole in the ozone layer. It’s remarkable how word-choice can have such a big impact on our ideas and feelings towards things. It’s also interesting to see politically how people react to each set of words…

James Hansen said “Global warming isn’t a prediction. It is happening.” (Hansen, n.d., “Global Warming Quotes”). It seems that many of us don’t put a lot thought into how our actions impacts global warming. Taking a look at what our current CO2 level is at and comparing it over time and discussing what three main sources contribute to the CO2 levels will be presented. Also, discussing two sources that take CO2 out of the atmosphere will be presented as well. Then moving into deforestation and…

To begin, all data collected from figures 1, 2, and 3 are from the carbon dioxide analysis information center (cdaic). After reviewing the data of CO2 emissions for the country of Indonesia, there are a few details which grabbed my attention. The first feature noticed was the year of 1921 in which gas first began to emit in Indonesia. This effected the beginning of the graph/data totals, resulting with lower numbers (shown in figure 3). Liquid was by far the largest contributor for Indonesia…

field and in future generations. The Earth’s climate changes in natural cycles. In the last 650,000 years, there have been 7 cycles of glacial advance and retreat (“Global”). The current warming trend is significant because most of it is very likely human induced, and it is occurring at a rate that is unprecedented in the past 1,300 (“Global”). Events around the globe show evidence of a warming climate, such as: rising sea levels, warming oceans, shrinking ice sheets, glacial retreat, extreme…
