GLOBAL WARMING
Attention Catcher: Where do you see the future of the United States in a hundred years for our grandchildren? Do you see them at war? Do you see them being a wealthy and successful Country? Or do you see the world’s temperature rising causing flooding, wildfires, and distinction of plants and animals.
Speaker Credibility: What does it take for us to see the signs of global warming and act upon what Mother Nature is trying to tell us?
Listeners Relevance: In the past fifty years with the increase of hurricanes, wildfires and wide spread of diseases we can see that Mother Nature is trying to tell us to stop what we are doing with our economic growth.
Thesis Statement: The fact of the matter is that global warming is indeed a problem that faces the world as we know it.
Preview of Speech: Today I am here to tell you about the problems we face with global warming, explaining the greenhouse effect with its potential impact and what we can do to minimize global warming.
BODY
First Main Point: Basic Environmental Technology states the following: Global warming or otherwise known as the greenhouse effect is the contamination of the earth’s atmosphere. Carbon dioxide and other trace gases like Nitrous oxide and Methane trap heat from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere causing the earth to heat up at a very high rate.
Sub point: About 60% of the warming effect is blamed by carbon dioxide, 25% is blamed on Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and the remaining to nitrous oxide, methane, ozone, and other trace gases.
Sub-sub-point: Carbon dioxide (CO2) is released into the atmosphere by the burning of solid waste, wood and wood products and fossil fuels like oil, natural gas, and coal. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are not biodegradable coming from aerosol cans, refrigerants, foam insulation, and industrial solvents.
Sub-sub-point: In the mid 1970s the Clean Air act was originated to install catalytic converters on the tail pipes of
