However, humans are not completely to blame because nature also plays a…

Global Warming Imagine a world in which sea levels rise beyond expectation, threatening the lives of those whom inhabit the surrounding shores (“Conserve Energy Future”). As a result of the consistently rising sea levels, the population will be forced to endure a cataclysmic fate such as the ocean’s conveyor belt becoming altered ultimately resulting in a mini ice age in Europe (“Conserve Energy Future”). However, the fate in which the condition of the world is currently pursuing has the…

However, scientists are using unreliable information from unreliable sources, as well as scientists do not have…

population. In return, agriculture adds to this effect because farms release methane. Trees and other plants are needed because they yet they take carbon dioxide in and release oxygen which is good for environment and if significant, can even help fight global warming. These plants are being cut down at an alarming rates also due to human activities. Although, the earth has always had warming trends, the current warming trend is more significant because it is occurring at an extraordinary rapid…

Negron At this point in time, the world has reached a point of no return climatically and the impacts of “Global Warming” are inevitable. Given current atmospheric research, climate change is proven to be a true, unnatural feedback caused by human activity. Due to the medias selective exposure of climate change information, specifically of the skeptic views of the topic, society has not grasped global warming as a current and vital issue. Additionally, the refusal to join climate protection…

The Kyoto Protocol was designed to fight the global warming by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Global warming is defined as the increase of the earth’s average surface temperatures due to the greenhouse effect, which acts to trap heat that would have otherwise escaped from earth. The Kyoto Protocol is able to reduce global warming by forcing countries to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, therefore reducing the greenhouse effect. The initial goal of the Kyoto Protocol was to reduce worldwide…
