Climate Change Argument Analysis

Today I wish to speak on behalf of a critical issue that will not only impact us as Congressmen, but also the millions of Americans that live in this nation and the billions of human beings inhabiting this unique planet. This is the most significant danger to future generations and to our loved ones; as representatives of the millions who live in this nation, it is our duty to acknowledge this problem, our duty to cooperate despite party differences, and our duty to put forth our greatest efforts to limit the effects of Climate Change. Nonetheless, as human beings we should recognize our influence on the world; whether some of you believe that this horrific threat is indeed induced by human activity to some extent, or not, all of you beyond an unreasonable doubt know that human beings have the power and intelligence to restrict the consequences of Climate Change. Our greatest allies have begun cooperating with one another to ensure the safety of Planet Earth, and where are we? The greatest country in the history of the world is nowhere to be found in this
This necessary cooperation within Congress will ensure that the United States joins other countries of the world in their efforts to reduce human-induced emissions. In the year 2014, the EPA stated the United States released 6,879 million metric tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, with thirty-one percent deriving from transportation. It will become our responsibility to open our ears to scientists in order to find effective and efficient alternatives to fossil fuels. It will be with these kinds of efforts that the legislative branch of the United States gains notoriety for considering not only the health and safety of its citizens, but also for considering the health and safety of the only planet known to man that sustains life.
