Climate change has been one of the most important global issues for over the decade now. There is no doubt that it is happening, although there is still a lot of debate going on whether global warming is real. Monica Hesse and Michael Pollan bring up the important points about the environment, causes of climate change, and possible solutions in their essays “Greed in the Name of Green” and “Why Bother?”. The moods of the two essays are clearly different. Hesse’s sarcastic tone, derides and…

Global Warming is beginning to drastically affect the Earth. Most people do not think about the damage they are doing to the Earth of if they do they think it is a problem for the future and not for now, which is untrue. Humans’ lifestyles should be altered to prevent further damage to Earth’s environment by reducing the demand for energy, recycling, and using less air conditioning and heat, these acts will reduce global warming. If the human race would cut down on energy usage, it would…

they can apply it to their presentation. One student will be in charge of finding the information, the other student will be in charge of finding visuals and the last student will responsible for editing the presentation and checking for grammatical errors. The group will have the choice of creating a presentation or brochure to inform others. Once each group finishes their project they will have a gallery walk, where they can observe other classmates’ work on the topic and have a discussion of…

Inconvenient Truth The documentary "Inconvenient Truth" presented by the ex-vice president Al Gore argues that the increase of carbon dioxide floating in the atmosphere and other issues is the cause of Global warming. He also mentions that there have also been plenty of environmental changes through time that will continue to harm people and the earth. There are several topics which Al Gore talks about in the documentary, such as greenhouse gasses, climate change, and global warming. The…

Advancements in technology over the past few decades have distressed the Earth’s environment globally. Due to the increased greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions released into the atmosphere, mostly due to human activities, there has been a large concern over the dangers of global warming. Between 1990 and 2008, global GHG emissions have increased by approximately 1.5 times, causing an international concern (Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data, 2015). Although GHGs are naturally formed, human activity…

In my case, the topic of visual rhetoric about environmental issues was the most interesting and loving section so far. It is the unavoidable and indispensable fact that we live in visual and image-based society and the world and we get accustomed to things have significant meanings and visual images. I think that seeing with materials with images will be much easier way to understand and this could be easier way to make attention from diverse people. People break complicated or unfamiliar…

Hypothesis: The literatures has shown the evidence of the changes in climate and is due to natural processes and human activity. Some researchers are more assured that the changes in climate is due to human activity resulted in global warming. The human activities such as burning of fossil fuels has created the disturbance in environment and directly affecting the human health. The natural process has also contribute to the global warming. The world health organization made a statement that the…

On December 12, 2015, President Obama and 150 world leaders came together in order to discuss the tragic effects of climate change. We all need to come together to fight this problem. Obama states his concern for the rapid increase of damage caused by climate change. Obama stated that “ Fourteen of the fifteen warmest years on record have occurred since 2000..” Our world is taking the turn for the worst if changes are not made our world will come to an end. Eventually, the climate of our world…

It is time for the debate on climate change to end. The scientific community has come to a consensus that global warming is real, but the debate lingers on. Facts about sea level rise, melting polar ice caps, global warming, and climate change are discussed on a regular basis; however, much of the population is still unconcerned about what is happening. There is general confusion and misunderstanding about the subject, even to the point that people may not understand that climate change and…

In order to understand the effects that Global Climate Change has had on weather we need to first understand the difference between weather and climate. Weather is what is happening in the atmosphere, on a given day and location. Examples of such include temperature, wind, and precipitation. On the other hand, climate is more of a broad, generalized condition that covers a region during a longer period of time. Examples of such include warm, cold, wet and dry. In the past decade, with only a…
