pollution, the vast growth of pollution in our ocean is affecting marine life such as coral reefs and sea animals. With pollution on the rise it is declining our marine future, which can be a worry for the worlds oxygen with a large percentage of the planet’s oxygen coming from marine plants. Marine life stability is one of the most important issues this century. We are constantly having large numbers of sea animals dying from various versions of pollution and it needs to be stopped now. If…
describes an exploratory visit by a spaceship in the year 2120 to a planet named Vars, which greatly resembles Earth in terms of its climate, inhabitants, and ability to support life. The astronauts who traveled to Vars soon discovered the reasons for its rise and fall through careful investigations. Despite its sophisticated…
Hawaii would be a rather uncomfortable place to live by the end of this century. The number of tropical storms striking the archipelago, which is the strip of water containing the islands that make up Hawaii, is expected to rise in the Pacific. When climate change increases significantly, researchers from Japan, China and Hawaii have calculated an increase in the number of cyclones reaching the shores. On average an extra one or two cyclones per year are projected to affect Hawaii, as opposed to…
are otherwise suitable.” Sea level are also rising due to glaciers melting. The increasing CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion have led to an exponential increase in the net amount of CO2 being dissolved in the ocean. Dissolved CO2 creates carbonic acid, which reduces the ocean pH level, making it more acidic. This is bad as it would very likely have a major impact on the ocean life. If the CO2 concentration continues to rise and the pH level continues to fall at current rates, the ocean…
of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere this could become our new reality. For years now there have been constant headlines of the new problems within the world due to global warming. These headlines range anywhere from a glacier melting to the rise in sea levels throughout the earth. These problems as well as many more throughout our world are all caused by global warming. The global warnings definition is as follows, an increase in the earth 's average atmospheric temperature that causes…
America. Looking at other Europe’s weather is that they face high humidity and cloudiness. Mediterranean, Region such as Italy, Portugal, Southern Spain, France, Greece and nations such as the south Slavic, which are bordering towards the Adriatic Sea, will experience a warm and sunny Mediterranean climate than the rest of European region. This kind of climate makes Europe a vacation destination as most of the time it is summertime. Mediterranean states such as the Southern California coast has…
war, the inauguration of a new leader or anniversaries. As national pride among citizens within a country rises, civic engagement is also amplified. The same theory can be applied reversely to assume that low levels of nationalism correlate with scant civic engagement. Using the most similar system design one can explore the reasons behind why two analogous nations have very different levels of nationalism and civic engagement. Libya and Algeria are both North African countries that share the…
cause behind global warming is man-made. Despite the growing evidence, a number of scientists still believe the current changes in the climate a part of a natural global cycle. In today’s society,…
A problem that is affecting humanity every day, and it is gradually intervening in our lives is global warming. This is a phenomenon that shows an increase of the temperature in the atmosphere and oceans. Gases and substances produced by humans are changing the planet and causing severe effects in the stability and development of different forms of life. The changes in climate and weather that are currently known are causing environmental disasters that attack directly our lives and living…
curb human behavior that may curb the changes. In December of 2015, 195 countries meet at the Paris Climate Conference to sign the first universal climate deal with the overall goal of limiting global warming to below 2 degrees above pre-industrial levels, by reducing emissions through investing in solar and wind power and switching to cleaner energy sources (European Commission, 2016). It is the hope of all the member countries of the agreement that these measures will help curb global warming…
