    The Green House Effect Analysis

    American Wilderness has changed considerably since the Europeans settlement of the Plymouth Colony. These changes have caused massive damage to the American wilderness. Americans, as a population, refuse to take responsibilities that their actions are causing damage even after the worst man-made ecological disaster, the Dust Bowl. Many authors have written about the damages humans have caused to the wilderness. McKibben and Pollan are two of these authors. McKibben wrote about the Green House Effect and how Americans have contributed to this world disaster. Pollan took a different approach and wrote about how what we eat and how we grow and maintain food sources are causing damage to the wilderness. They both agree that this damage is…

    The Theory of Global Warming

    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.…

    This Time magazine article talks about the extremes of global warming, from the very cold winter of 2010 to the extreme heat of 2012. The article goes on to talk about how global warming is adversely affecting the people of the United States through forest fires and by living in lands that have been scorched by the continually rising temperatures. This article does a very good job addressing the skeptics of global warming and shows them proof of global warming.…

    Reflection Paper on Field Notes from a Catastrophe

    Elizabeth Kolbert’s Field Notes from a Catastrophe was my first in-depth look into climate change, global warming, and the contribution of humans to these things. Global warming was something I vaguely knew about before reading this book, but it never really caught my attention or seemed like a major issue in the world. After reading Field Notes from a Catastrophe, I realized that it is in fact a major issue that must be addressed by every community. In this essay I will argue that it is our job as the human race to do all that we can to take care of our planet and reduce the amount of global warming that humans are responsible for. This essay is significant because this is our world. Global warming may not be something that has a significant impact on our lives, but whether it is our grandchildren or great grandchildren, there will be consequences eventually for the human race and the other species that we share this planet with.…

    Global Warming: The Controversy And Its Impacts

    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.…
