manage if we do not act soon. This phenomena is known as global warming and climate change. Global warming is the increase in temperature throughout the world. It is caused by the increasing amount of carbon dioxide, methane, and other gases in the atmosphere (Gürlük). These gases are known as greenhouse gases because they contribute to warm the Earth 's atmosphere. We need to pay attention to these changes, since climate change and global warming are caused by the increase of greenhouse gases…

Throughout the years it has been easier to notice how climate has changed. Some summers are not very warm and some winter are not very cold. Even crazier, sometimes spring feels like winter and summer like autumn, and so on. Since the 1800’s humans have had the knowledge that climate changes are possible, and can happen from atmosphere variations as Fourier calculated in 1824, which can lead to the Earth becoming far colder. Additionally, the industrial revolution lead to “coal, railroads, and…

responsible for the depletion of this vital planet. There are many things that are caused by the wastefulness and carelessness of humans, but climate change is one of the more immediate threats. The effects of climate change throughout the world is a serious issue, however, people…

long history of the Earth, the global climate has fluctuated drastically, ranging from tropical to glacial. In the mid-18th century, the Industrial Revolution began, and humanity began a bilateral campaign: one waged with the goal of achieving a prosperous, industrialized future, and another, inadvertently waged against the environment. The purpose of this literature review is to examine the influence of anthropological global warming on the overall climate and to investigate the impact of…

Abundant college temperatures could abate the breadth of the growing aeon in some genitalia of Africa by up to 20%, the address said. Oxfam predicted that world hunger would aggravate as climate change accordingly aching crop assembly and disrupted incomes. They appropriate the cardinal of bodies at accident of ache ability ascend by 10% to 20% by 2050, with circadian per-capita calorie availability falling beyond the world. Solution to global…

Climate change is defined as a long-term change in the global climate, specifically increasing average atmospheric temperature (Dictionary). In reality, it is not just an increase in temperature, climate change is rising sea levels, habitat loss, water contamination, loss of biological diversity, and so much more. In the past, climate change was a controversial debate topic, now, it is a widely accepted, inevitable fact (Think Again). Evidence for climate change became prevalent in the 1890’s,…

there have been a total of seven Ice ages and seven warm periods in the Earth’s history. Accordingly, when the climate changes, many conditions such as sea levels, temperature, humidity and even the major existence of species have been altered as a natural phenomenon. As for this era, we are in interglacial period. Interglacial period is a period that exists between each Ice age, and its climate is altered so slowly that animals cannot even perceive it.

sediment build-up which will have a negative effect on most of the fresh water organisms living in these fresh water ecosystems. The most unique characteristic of an estuary is the mixing of salt and fresh water. If rainfall and flooding patters were to change it would have a huge impact on estuarine and other coastal habitats. The fresh water flow for these habitats are determined by the size, timing and variability of rain events. Nutrients, soils and pollutants will end up in these…

Climate change is a subject that is relevant to all living beings on Earth, yet it is underrepresented and in some cases even ignored by the media and the public. In the article Climate Change as News, Andrew C. Revkin states that the general topic of climate change is very difficult for journalists and reporters to cover for its lack of calamity when compared to other disasters and “FrontPage worthy” titles, and for its complexity that makes understanding this topic difficult for regular people…

Public Awareness to Climate Change Ever since Earth came into its existence, its climate has always been shifting. From the boiling lava of the earth’s crust in its early developing stages to the Ice Age thousands of years ago, the earth’s weather has never stayed consistent. However, no one can truly pinpoint as to why the climate is changing or the its effects. In Joseph F. C. DiMento and Pamela Doughman’s preface “Making Climate Change Understandable” to their book Climate Change: What It…
