Our world is dying...And we are responsible for it. How come can we not do anything about it or at least try it? We're all aware of the seriousness of this problem: CO2 emissions and other substances such as Nitrogen oxide, Hydrocarbons or Carbon Monoxide, are destroying our ozone layer and causing global warming to arise. In consequence, the greenhouse effect makes the world's temperature to reach higher levels and lead to enormous disasters such as North Pole melting, Pollution...
All right then, I know that each one of you here is perfectly aware of what it is going on, and I know that you might be thinking: "There they are again, talking on and on about something that we cannot do anything about and still blaming us... buuf...How annoying and repetitive is she!" Typical thoughts, however excuse me if I say that all of you are wrong. My point is that we CAN really DO something about it, in our everyday life there are thousands of opportunities to make our world better and decrease CO2 emissions... blah blah blah... There she is again trying to save the world and trying to sell bullshit that it is no use for us neither for the world...C'mon! Wake up! We NEED, and I repeat, NEED, to open our eyes! Did you know that livestock were and are producers of CO2. Were you aware of cows and sheep's been liberators of CO2 after having oxidized organic components? I was not, and that probably surprises me as much as it surprises you. Furthermore, livestock also produces 115 tons of another contaminant component known as GAS METHANE, which is even more worse than CO2. And that is only one case among thousands more, of CO2 emission. How can we help OUR EARTH to be freed of CO2 emissions and others? Because CO2 emissions are not only due to gas and fuel been burned, but it is also caused by animals and pollution. According to environmental studies, the amount of emissions produced by person is 4,480Kg...How shocking is that! Our own kids are going to suffer what

    When it comes to reversing the alarming amounts of man-made CO2, is it too late? In the article “Why Bother?” by Michael Pollan, the author suggests that global warming is the product of modern consumerism and the downfall of human virtue. Energy is at the heart of every modern life. Everything that we do; whether it is, travel, entertainment, powering your home or machinery at work, consumes vast amounts of energy. Therefore, unless Michael Pollan can persuade billions of people to revert back to the 1800’s, he is wasting his time. Energy consumption will continue to climb. How does modern society assuage its appetite for energy? The only way to reduce man-made CO2 is to produce clean energy. “Why Bother?” has many valid points; however,…

    If we don’t do anything about this soon, the planet we call home could turn to chaos. If we fund money and time into helping our environment and various climates by being more energy efficient, we can make a difference. I urge you to spend just a little more time and money into helping slow global warming down by conserving water, planting more trees, recycling and reducing your waste. Also, scale down on your use of fossil fuels and other malignant toxins that are heating our atmosphere. By doing this, we will be able to bring climate change to an…

    The sky is falling, the sky is falling! Growing up I heard this phrase in folktales as a “wolf cry”-- a cry that is so ridiculous that nobody would believe it. Now that global warming is a major environmental issue, the saying doesn’t sound so out of place. Most people might say: what is global warming? That’s the question that was running through my mind when I first heard we were watching a documentary on it in my English 130 class. The film is Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth and it is about the causes of global warming and what it is doing to our planet. Being an environmentally involved citizen and growing up with conservative Republicans as parents, I was torn between not really liking Gore and this extreme reality that I felt was an impending doom on Mother Earth. The day before my writing class my dad called me and I brought up the fact that I was watching Gore’s film; his reaction was, “I’m paying for you to do that?” I tried to tell him it wasn’t about Gore and when I brought up global warming he claimed it was a scheme to get money and that our wor...…

    The atmosphere is choking from excessive amounts of carbon dioxide. Greenhouse gases are melting polar icecaps and rising sea levels. Deforestation is diminishing our chances of ever discovering new species in forests and destroying the carbon cycle. Humans do in fact have the capability of changing the basic chemistry of this massive planet. Scientific evidence shows that we have already contributed to irreversible climate change. Humankind has an obligation to reconcile its difference with the environment and learn to conserve natural resources. Conservation begins with knowledge, which leads to action, which will save our…

    In the winter of sixth grade me and my family had gone on a ski trip at MT. Hood. So far everything was going great I was finally getting the hang of snowboarding because it was my first year. Snowboarding was a little scary but I was very scared of the ski lift I don't really know why but i was very scared to get off of it. Later that day i did not know that my fear of ski lifts was about to get a way lot worse. I was riding on the ski lift when all of the sudden I noticed my hair was stuck. The lift was almost finished by the time I had noticed which gave me no time to get it unstuck from the chair. The ride had come to a stop when the people operating the ride noticed I could not get off. But by the time they had noticed it was too late…

    Arthur Miller is mostly known for his connections to Marilyn Monroe, the United States’s national sexual icon through the fifties and sixties. However, while many recognize his work, they do not recognize the author behind the work. Born in Harlem, New York in 1915, Arthur Miller attended the University of Michigan before moving back to New York to write stage plays that have engaging connections with the working class. Through his many plays which have reached national recognition, his works have mostly been centered around the social and psychological dimensions of his own characters with themes of individual morality that is influenced by social pressures. Miller’s political ideologies lodged their way into his various works through themes…

    The location of sovereignty in the UK in recent years has reduce from one single power and devolved into many unions, treaties and nations within the UK and abroad. Power has been devolved from a single sovereignty parliament in the UK to a-multi sovereignty in the UK and its nations. Scotland has played a bigger part in receiving sovereignty, for example, the electoral system devised for Scotland was to ensure that extremist (Scottish Nationalist Party) could never come to power, but they have, by working within its own sovereign parliament and not a central office, Westminster was pushed into allowing SNP to run Scotland as a country; if Westminster didn’t comply the Union of the United Kingdom, it could possible to break, This would show a weakness in UKs sovereignty.…

    First, we have global warming, which is a problem that must be solved as soon as possible. Some ignorant people think that it won’t happen but we are actually living this situation right now, every single day. According to some NASA studies, since 1950, the average temperature has climbed 1.4Fahrenheit degrees around the world. As a consequence of this fact, an Arctic ice area, which was bigger than the United States, has melted this year! Another evidence of global warning is that the frequency and number of hurricanes and earthquakes around the world has increased the last years. The irony of all this is that even though we do realize what is happening; even though we know that we are destroying our planet, we are still polluting, wasting and damaging.…

    To put it into perspective we can relate global warming as being a packet of cigarettes, they warn us that it can cause cancer but the desire of people to buy them exceeds the risk of dying and further illustrates how ignorant and unconcerned people are with long-term consequences. People are educated about global warming and seem adamant to help when approached as individuals, however when the global race comes into play, we show up empty handed. Example KYOTO and Copenhagen failed to make agreements now they have been postponed, countries like US not signing, as well as Russia and Japan recently pulling out.…

    We know that the major problem is the amount of heat trapping gas emissions we as humans produce. We also know that if we do not stop emitting so much carbon dioxide into our atmosphere the problems we are already seeing will get considerably worse. According to NASA, droughts and heatwaves, like we’re already seeing in California, would worsen. Hurricanes will become stronger and gain intensity after each passing season. And sea levels will rise to a point where our ocean based cities would start flooding. All of these things bring about only more pain and suffering for massive amounts of human and non-human beings. Therefore, we need to see a change in what we value the…

    As the year 2013 is gradually coming to a close, global warming and pollution is not. Glaciers are becoming smaller, the ozone is becoming thinner, and the air pollution levels are at an all time high. How is the earth heading downhill in such a fast manner? Who is to blame? Is there ever going to be a resolution? California Governor Jerry Brown stated, “Our wealth, our society, our being is driven by oil and carbon. And when we say we have to make a shift, that is extremely difficult.” He is completely correct. Parents, children, cousins, co-workers, friends, and nearly everyone able to grasp the concept of global warming and the danger the earth is in are all wondering what is going to happen to the environment in the upcoming years.…

    Throughout history, people have been a powerful force for positive change. That's because when people unite and call for action, change isn't just possible, it's inevitable. But no single person stormed the beaches of Normandy or ended slavery, and no single person will stop global warming. When we solve the climate crisis, it will be because of regular people like you and me. It will be because we, along with our neighbors, co-workers, and friends around the world, took a stand and demanded that our leaders make stopping global warming a top…

    Global warming, also referred to as climate change, is real. The question remains, is man or Mother Nature responsible for causing it? The Nobel Prize-winning chemist Svante Arrhenius first proposed the idea of global warming in 1896. He knew that carbon dioxide traps heat in the earth’s atmosphere and that burning fossil fuels releases CO2 (Bryan).…
