Topic: “There is nothing that we as individuals can do to prevent climate change”. During last several decades‚ industrialization and human activities have produced greenhouse gases (mainly carbon dioxide). These gases make the earth’s temperature higher that leads to more serious events‚ such as ice smelting‚ floods‚ storms and droughts. This is called “climate change”. Climate change would have significant impacts on environment‚ economy and the way we live so it needs to be prevented. In my

blamed for climate change or the other reasons for climate change are mostly doing the harm? My answer for this question would be‚ no‚ industrialization can not only be blamed for climate change. From the beginning of industrialization our climate surely has changed rapidly than before. This scenario has made a concept in our mind that the biggest reason for climate change is industrialization where actually there are more reasons whether manmade or natural responsible for changing the climate.

Next Ice Age? It would be safe to assume that climate change is going to be around for a long time and have an enormous impact on the lives of many people. Humans have had a huge impact on the environment for many years and can be linked to one the main factors of global warming. Global warming is a topic that has received much attention in recent years; yet our climate change is not a recent problem. If the U.S. Continues to ignore climate change then the effect on the environment will affect humans

Even though climate change is partially caused by the natural cycles of Earth‚ humans are still a major part of it. Greenhouse gases‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ absorb and emit heat in the atmosphere‚ keeping Earth warm enough to support life. However‚ human activities‚ such as burning fossil fuels‚ are adding large amounts of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere. Earth must get rid of energy at the same rate it receives energy. More greenhouse gases mean that more heat is being held in the atmosphere

demonstrate that the climatological changes we’ve seen since the mid-1800’s are outside the bounds of natural variability inherent in the earth’s climate system. Thus‚ any impartial jury should not come back with a “guilty” verdict convicting humanity of forcing recent climatological changes. Even the most ardent supporters of global warming will not argue this point. Instead‚ they argue that humans are only partially responsible for the observed climate change. If one takes a hard look at the science

There are many factors affect global warming such as overuse of technology and lack of social awareness. However‚ it can be seen that the significance of the issue is deemed by humanity. The purpose of this paper is to critically evaluate the statement that technological solutions alone cannot solve the problems of climate change. There are other alternative
