Brandy Ricker WR122 Global Warming…Fact or Fiction? One of the largest current debates in the world is whether or not global warming is being caused by unnatural interference to the environment or is it a part of the Earth’s natural cycle of climate patterns. It is glaringly obvious that the world as a whole should agree on some drastic changes to improve our environmental situation immediately. ProCon.org states that the US National Academies of Science‚ the National Aeronautics and Space

Global warming what is it? Global warming refers to an average increase in theEarth’s temperature‚ which in turn causes changes in climate. So what’s the big deal you ask? Well the big deal is‚ if temperatures rise above normal levels for a few days‚ it’s no big deal‚ the Earth will stay more or less the same‚ but if temperatures continue to rise over a longer period of time‚ then the Earth may experience some serious problems! What causes global warming? The Earth’s atmosphere contains gases that

Global Warming‚ Not Caused by Humans In modern America few problems prove to be as fundamentally problematic as the theory of human induced global warming. Its repeated coverage from within the media and political arena are influencing people worldwide‚ putting those who think differently in an outcast shadow. The truth of the matter is‚ to not believe in human induced global warming has become politically incorrect and unacceptable in the public eye. The theory of human induced global warming can

Global Warming: An exponential threat We currently live in a highly globalized world from every point of view (technological‚ scientific‚ cultural‚ economic‚ communicative‚ etc.) hence‚ one of the most negative effects that generated globalization has been the growing ecological imbalance that has harmed the planet. The global warming has become of the most dangerous threats and challenges to face in the 21st century. Many companies and factories are currently one of the main factors which

Global warming Global warming is when the earth heats up (the temperature rises). It happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide‚ water vapor‚ nitrous oxide‚ and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere‚ which increases the temperature. This hurts many people‚ animals‚ and plants. Many cannot take the change‚ so they die. The greenhouse effect is when the temperature rises because the sun’s heat and light is trapped in the earth’s atmosphere. This is like when heat

Global warming is called the greenhouse effect because the gases that are gathering above the earth make the planet comparable to a greenhouse. By trapping heat near the surface of the earth‚ the greenhouse effect is warming the planet and threatening the environment. Many scientists criticized Mr. Hansen’s report‚ and the debate over global warming continues today. Current fears stem largely from the fact that global warming is occurring at such a rapid pace. Models are predicting that over the

PLAN Ways to Slow Down Ozone Depletion Global warming refers to an increase in the average temperature of the Earth as a result of the greenhouse effect‚ in which gases in the upper atmosphere trap solar radiation close to the planet’s surface instead of allowing it to dissipate into space. Both natural and human-made conditions can contribute to global warming‚ but human beings can do several things to reduce the effects. The biggest cause of global warming is the carbon dioxide released when fossil

GLOBAL WARMING AND IT’S EFFECTS ON GLACIERS Global Warming The average global temperature has raised more than expected in the past few decades. Many prefer to use the milder term ’climate change’ instead of the harsher ’global warming’ to describe this change in average global temperature. The main cause of global warming is thought to be the ’greenhouse effect’ that is mainly caused by us humans. With an increase in temperature glaciers worldwide are melting faster than the time taken for
