Attribution of recent climate change

Saving Planet Earth: How We Started and How to Stop Global Warming I chose to write my final paper on climate change because I find this topic tremendously important. This topic is important to me because we are seeing major changes with the place we call home, and if we don’t stand up and take responsibility and start to fix these problems, we will have some major issues for the coming generations. We need to come together as one and fix this problem. It won’t be easy, but if we all work…

Wildfires: A Burning Problem California, as of recent decades, has a warming relationship with wildfires. The state has seen an increase in wildfires which some believe to be attributed to anthropogenic climate change. Climate change is expected to result in more variable weather patterns that are likely to lead to longer and more severe droughts (“Climate change”, 2016). Generally in late spring through autumn California has a dry, windy, and frequently hot climate. At times wildfires in…

suffering from global warming, climates are changing at a global, regional, and even local level. What human activities contribute to global warming? First of all, humans rely too heavily on fossil fuels which are used to fuel cars, heat our homes, even make medicines. The problem is that fossil fuels release huge amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and as I mentioned, carbon dioxide is an example of a…

this major issue being defined? To many people, global warming is defined as the steady rise of the Earth’s temperature from an excess of carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere. To numberless others, global warming is simply that the climate change and carbon emission has nothing to do with it. While this last definition seems to be the easiest due to being less scary and not having to deal with the problem, it does not mean it is correct. As difficult as it maybe to accept the truth,…

Crop simulation model is an effective tools in understanding climate change effects on agricultural production systems (Masutomi et al. 2009; White et al. 2011). The modeling studies from Bangladesh (Karim et al. 1996), Japan (Horie et al. 2000), China (Shen et al. 2010), Korea (Lee et al. 2012) and India (Krishnan et al. 2007) reported the country-specific discrepancies in future rice yield due to climate warming; the highest decrease in rice yield will probably occur in most areas of low…

the Duke of Burgundy. Decline in flagship species over recent years has led to a review of the biodiversity action plans and the importance they have across the globe. This POSTnote examines the risks of butterfly decline for the UK, exploring the anthropogenic impacts on the Duke of Burgundy and assessing relevant strategies to better conservation. OVERVIEW • Values of the Butterfly to humans. • Urban sprawl and agricultural management changes have…

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?").…

believer. Humans are play a large role in climate change with our emission off fossil fuels, aerosols, and CO2 released when manufacturing concrete. Climate change is weather patterns that extend for several years. Climate Global warming is a major effect of climate is one of the biggest problems to find a fix for. Some other effects of climate change are rising sea levels, extreme weather conditions, and impacts our health. Some effects of climate change, can’t be physically seen by the…

Bottom-Up approach allows for more potential to accomplish and accommodate to policies regarding climate change. Working better than the reverse side of top-down approach as it is becoming to vague and isn’t able to be as efficient as it was originally made. Policies under this category tend not to be able to adapt to the new technologies. One of the benefits to Bottom-Up process is the ability to adapt and change its policies more efficiently under a smaller scale of government. With this…

Weather is a day-to-day change in the atmospheric condition such as temperatures and humidity. The climate is the observed weather for an extended period hence it identifiable with specific locations. The climate system is made of the elements such as biosphere (living organisms), cryosphere (ice sheets, oceans, and atmosphere) and geosphere (rocks, soils, and sediments).All these factors influence the changes in the movement of heat on the environment, which leads to climate change. The oceans…
