Part 2: Argument Writing Global warming causes many of the disastrous problems we have in our world today. The causes of global warming is what most people would be shocked about and some of the causes are being used almost every day. One cause of global warming is carbon dioxide being admitted into the air by the burning of fossil fuels. Two things that emit this is factories and cars. One used to meet the demand of buyers and the other used daily by millions around the world. A second cause is deforestation. The effects that these two causes lead two are plentiful. However, the two effects are even more dangerous storms coming our way and the extinction of animals. The more storms that come our way the more money, lives and homes we begin to lose. When it comes to the extinction of animals, we need them to survive. Without some of these animals, many people would starve. In conclusion, these are only two causes and effects of global warming, and the results are horrible. As any good topic, global warming became a controversy. The first side, which most people also agree with, believe that global warming is a real and is increasing in threat as time goes by. However, there are some non-believers that think that global warming is just a myth or theory. The first side is scientifically proven over many years of research. While some aspects of global warming like the causes and effects of global warming is agreed upon. However, the non- believers are focused on the aspects that are not totally confirmed. Some of these aspects are time, distance and arrival of the effects. In conclusion, while the topic of global warming is controversial there are reasons to defend both sides. Although there is many supporting details to further enhance both sides of the global warming controversy, I strongly agree with the first group. I agree with the first group because I believe in more of a scientific hypothesis. According to “Just Facts” global warming

    The global warming debate is a very hot topic. Some believe that it is real, while others do not. Even on the side of the people who think it is a real thing there is debate. Some people think that it is a naturally occurring event while others think that it is manmade. Those who believe it is manmade think that too much carbon output is the cause. This is the stand that former vice president/presidential candidate Al Gore takes in his academy award winning documentary, An Inconvenient Truth.…

    Global warming is the increase of average world temperatures as a result of what is known as the greenhouse effect. Global warming started long before the 'Industrial Revolution'. It began 18,000 years ago as the earth started warming its way out of the Pleistocene Ice Age. On average the earth's temperature rises 2c to 6c by the end of the 21 century.There are 20 deadly effects because of gobal warming.First,dieases carring insects are spreading north,so in why malria isn't fully extinguish. Second, the waters are getting warmer so there is going to be more hurricanes.Third, There is going to be more chances of heat waves and droughts.Fourth, there's going to be Economic consequences.

    There are many myths and facts about global warming, but the same question is always asked, “Is global warming real or not?” Many more questions arise from asking if global warming is real or not like, “is it the human’s fault or is it just the natural course of the Earth?” There is much evidence that scientist had gather to prove that global warming is real; for example everyone is aware the Antarctic glacier’s melting causing the oceans to rise and causing many problems not only to people but also animals too (Discovery Channel, Discovery Channel - Global Warming, What You Need To Know [Documentary]). The following are facts about global warming and how it is a real thing whether there are people wanting to believe this or not it is happening.…

    The climate change debate, as it discussed in the mainstream media, appears to be divided into two major sides. One side argues that the current global warming is caused by human factors while the other side insists it is occurring because of natural forces. In the latter argument, two natural causes that dominate the conversation are solar changes and changes to the Earth's orbit.…

    Controversy over global warming exists as a dispute regarding the nature and consequences of global warming. The theory of global warning as presented in the mainstream media currently assumes that carbon dioxide is an atmospheric greenhouse gas and since humans are producing more carbon dioxide than previously, the temperature must therefore rise. The cause of global warming is not actually known, but in it 's simplest terms the debate boils down to whether or not global warming is caused by human interference or part of a naturally occurring cycle. The debate has recently become one-sided in favor of human interference due mostly to three factors: political pressure on scientists to produce research that supports the global warming theory, public misconception of what scientific consensus is, and an irresponsible that media promotes sensationalized viewpoints to sell advertising.…

    I would have to disagree that global warming is simply a political issue. It originated in politics with Al Gore because he is a political figure, but it has always been more of a general human issue, as we are the cause of it, and we are the only ones who can take action against global warming. I don’t see politics as the ideal method of relaying the message of global warming to the public. In contrast, I believe that even something more political such as the war on terror is not as important as global warming, and therefore it doesn’t need the type of expose as global warming does. Terrorism seems much more urgent and threatening upfront, but if humanity were to be wiped out by the effects of global warming, there will be no one left to terrorize. In addition to that, there are many myths and misconceptions out there about global warming which are only harming the effort to educate the masses. In order for people to realize what they need to do and find out what they can do to contribute to the cause, we need to eliminate any misconception or confusion, and educate the citizens of the world on climate…

    The earth has been around for billions of years and many issues in our time as a species have risen up. One matter that has come up is the issue of global warming or climate change. This conflict has been around for many years, but has started to get worse every year, since the United States and other countries have been emitting carbon dioxide into the earth’s atmosphere. Global warming is an urgent issue; moreover, there exists a controversy on whether humanity or nature is the cause, and the scientists who consider this a serious matter are entirely correct because humans are at fault.…

    However, as I see it, there are many political effects behind the scene and the global warming claim is a swindle. This conspiracy exposed by hundreds of private emails and documents exchanged among prominent American and British researchers were hacked by a Russian hacker(Hacked E-Mail Is New Fodder for Climate Dispute par. 1). These emails showed how those researchers editing and distorting data and rushing into the result of global warming despite the fact that there is no enough evidence to prove…

    All arguments have two sides to them. The global warming issue is not an exception to that general rule. I believe that global warming is partly natural process, but our industrial activities have majorly influenced the climate changes. These changes are causing extinction in some animals like the polar bears and the melting of the Arctic that causes sea levels to rise. Global warming would also cause extreme weather like hurricane Katrina and more frequent and harsher droughts. The warming of the Earth would also bring more disease caring insects to migrate north: bringing plague and disease with them. The extreme weather causes millions of dollars in damage and the diseases cost money to treat and control.…

    The major activity of men which is responsible for global warming is the burning of fossil fuels by factories creating harmful gases that are trapped in the atmosphere. As a result based in the documentary I have watched, corals reefs which are homes of some aquatic animals are dying as the ocean absorbs more carbon dioxide making them more acidic. In Africa, the annual migration of over a million animals is on a threat as drought decimate on the grassland they feed on. The near 1 degree rise on average temperature is killing the trees in Canada turning their leaves red. The arctic region is warming at twice the rate of the rest of the world. Last 2007, large arctic glaciers broke up and melted causing higher sea levels. Most places already experienced extreme fire because of too high temperature destroying millions of properties of the people. Other destructive effects of global warming are hurricane destruction, cyclones, catastrophic flooding, tsunami and the like. But the worst effect one could imagine is death. Over a billion of people have died because of…

    In the past 100 years, the temperature of our Earth has increased by about 4.5 degrees (Guggenheim). This may not seem like a lot, but on a global scale, it can have a huge impact. Global Warming is a serious problem, and it should be taken very seriously. Unless we take action now, we will have major consequences to deal with later on. These include, but are certainly not limited to, extreme weather, a decline in polar life, and effects on human health. It seems like Global Warming has become such a political issue that people tend to take a side based solely on the political party they support. This needs to stop. No matter where you fall on the political spectrum, you cannot ignore the facts. The temperature of our atmosphere has been increasing at an alarming rate in recent years. Global warming is happening, and action needs to be taken to stop it, no exceptions.…
