into the atmosphere that is deteriorating the barrier for healthy ecosystems to function. Trees and forests are being chopped as man pleases, oceans are being populated with garbage and it is happening because the people of this planet aren’t treating it with respect that it deserves and some are reforming their ways to eradicate this issue.…

technological equipment, and our methods of gathering data from ancient ice in the Arctic. We have scientist that take measurements of the amount of carbon dioxide that was in our atmosphere in many points of history. A ice sample that they believed to be around the years 1850-1870 was measured, they found the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in the sample to be about two hundred and ninety parts per million, as well as a mean global temperature to be 13.6°C (The Discovery of Global Warming).…

Global Warming: A new epidemic? Global Warming is 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, chlorofluorocarbons, and other pollutants. This global Warming is changing the earth slowly but might make drastic changes to our everyday life. There are many factors causing global warming, the effects could be devastating, and society needs to care more about this and do something…

CO2 in the atmosphere destroy the ozone layer which makes it easier for harmful radiation from the Sun to reach the Earth 's surface. This radiation also destroys, damages, or hurts plants and animals on the Earth. Another factor being discovered with CO2 is that it…

increases rapidly more than ever within the 20th century, the global temperature has increased from 0.6 to 1.0 Celsius (Conserve Energy Future, 2013). Climate change has affected the Earth in tremendous ways such as the changing the amount of gas in the atmosphere, melting polar ice caps, animals becoming extinct, etc. It is building faster and faster but there are ways to help so it does not get any worse. I can help and so can everyone else just by informing and taking action to do your part. …

and Southern Poles show that CO2 levels began to rise higher than they have been in thousands (1,000s) of years during the onset of the Industrial Revolution, circa 1950. ("Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet: Evidence," 2016) Currently the atmosphere contents a CO2 level of around 400 ppm (part per million). This is in stark contrast to previous half million year average of between peak periods of 300 to lows of 170 ppm. ("Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet: Evidence," 2016) It…

life has some sort of influenced connotation on where I’d prefer to live; however, ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always dreamed of living in California. California is a better place to live in because of the opportunities, diversity, and atmosphere. Although we, Americans, may live on the “land of opportunities,” that doesn’t necessarily mean that still everyone is given a justified opportunity. Arizona is currently ranked 48 in education, whereas California…

being a prominent figure among ethnic minorities, Martin Luther King Jr., as evidenced by his support of sanitation workers in Memphis, supported any cause which he saw as worthy. What he saw worth in; however, was not just the poor, the minorities, the disenfranchised, or the oppressed, but those who he saw as being slighted of true justice and true equality. Perhaps this mentality is what drove him to comment on environmental protection—a cause which not only affects minorities or the poor,…

In four-hundred and sixty million years ago in the Ordovician era the plates are moving again and a new continent is formed called godiwalla. There should be plants and animals now because of the oxygen level, but there is only one reason why there isn’t any life on land yet, the sun. The sun is blasting the earth with deadly radiation, life on earth would not survive at all. With thirty miles from the earth 's surface the oxygen meets the sun 's radiation it forms another gas called the ozone.…

is the contamination of the atmosphere by harmful biological or chemicals. Pollution causes serious harm to the environment and it is attributed that it is among the reasons why we have global warming. With harmful gases being emitted in the atmosphere there is dire need on how we can minimize the effects that causes air pollution, although some are inevitable there is need to put countermeasures in helping regulating harmful gases from being emitted to the atmosphere. Some of the cause which…
