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. For example, if there is a big hurricane, the hurricane damages are going to cost money, so if there is chance of more hurricanes, then there is going to be more damages that cost money. Fifth, the polar ice caps are melting, in which the sea levels are rising, and the polar ice caps are white so in which reclect the sunlight back into to space and cooling the earth.Sixth, there is going to be more floods, which is one of the most dangererous harzards to human settlements.Seventh, There is and are going to be more forest fires. n 2007, more than 3,000 fires brought destruction to Southeastern Europe thanks to a long summer that created arid and parched conditions – a situation that would become normal as a consequence of the greenhouse effect.Eighth, there is going to be more destructive storms. The force of an hurricane has increased 50% in the last 30 years.Nineth, there is going to be more death because of smog.smog-related deaths predicted to rise by “about 4.5 percent from the 1990s to the 2050s,”…
Tropical depression Harvey moved into the waters of the Gulf of Mexico. In 48 hours it went from a weak tropical depression to a major category 4 hurricane. The rapid intensity of the system led some people to wonder if climate change contributed the its strengthening. While efforts are focused on helping the city of Houston recover the question must be answered , Did climate change intensify Hurricane Harvey?…
The seriousness of global warming is evident. “In the 20th century, the world’s average surface temperature rose by… the fastest rate in any period over the last 1,000 years.” (Source A) In the ocean, the surface temperature increased nearly 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit from about 100 years ago. (Source B) It is not only people who are affected by global warming. Nowadays, “each spring, the robins are arriving in Wisconsin several days earlier than they did a decade ago” (Source F) These significant changes to the world has alarmed people and evoked efforts to stop global warming.…
Over recent years global warming has been causing climate change through rising sea levels and many extreme events such as floods, heat waves, and droughts and storms these events could have massive consequences economically, socially, environmentally and politically on a large scale, from international level down to local areas.…
Global warming has not been taken serious by the government. The world does not really take it as a threat. Cars pollute the atmosphere more and more every day. The temperatures keep rising, yet, the government still doesn’t believe it is taking place. (Document C) Global warming is not a game, it is something serious. Therefore, the world should be very concerned about it.…
Hurricanes have made a huge impact on the world. They have impacted our environments and society. We have discovered what hurricanes do and how they occur, and what they are. There are 5 different categories of hurricane 5 being the worst and 1 being the least strongest. People have reacted differently to different hurricanes.…
Some people think that Global warming is not everyone’s problem because they think their not the ones causing it and they believe it doesn’t exist. Also becuase nothing life threatening has happened to anyone yet. There not seeing what they are doing to the earth. However they are wrong because they don't realize that their has only been minor consequences to what we have done to the earth. What we are doing to the earth has to stop fast and we need to do something to change it, we are producing more CO2 than we ever have and it is polluting our planet. We are trapping greenhouse gases and making our earth heat up.…
Yet what would happen to these low lying areas if climate change causes more hurricanes to form or the ones that do form become more intense? Under Hurricane Ike, there was a 12-foot storm surge. Now add that on top of an extra 8 or 17 inches of projected sea level rise over the next few years from climate…
According to the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research's Center for Science Education, severe weather disasters will increase as global warming continues. Flash floods and hurricanes may wipe out coastal cities. NASA asserts that the quantity and intensity of forest fires will increase, as well as droughts and heat waves. The World Wildlife Fund reports that global warming will directly harm many endangered species. Scores of scientists have been warning the United States government about global warming, yet our current administration refuses to take action. In fact, the leaders of our government are attempting to repeal laws that are in pace to slow the effects of global warming. If nothing is done to save our planet, humans will face…
With countless hours of having scientists research global warming it is apparent that global warming is not a problem at all. In fact everybody needs to see the clear fact that global warming is helping humanity in many numerous ways. The environment warming up, the ocean levels rising, and the increase in carbon dioxide are all benefits to the environment, economy, and society in general.…
Hurricanes are tropical cyclones that form when the ocean’s waters warm up, due to global warming. They cause huge amounts of destruction on land, and threaten lives that they come in contact with. Hurricanes also have an impact on coastal cities, such as New Orleans, the home of many residents. Hurricanes that form inflicts damage that costs up to billions of dollars, and affect coastal cities in a way that can not be undone.…
Climate change has been a controversial topic for the past few years and this is a topic that needs to be addressed immediately. Even though there are people in the world who say climate change does not exist or that climate change is a hoax to make people buy certain products, the end result is true. Climate change will kill the human race and everything else on the planet. We can see the effects of climate change now with the temperatures rising, the arctic and land ice decreasing as time goes by, this is not caused naturally. In fact, we can show proof since the industrial age the sudden spike in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. With carbon dioxide the highest it’s ever been in 650,000 years. This is causing sea levels to rise as well…
Global warming is a serious problem that the world is facing. Did you know that global…
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.…
Global warming has become a major concern for future life. Its impact reaches not only to a specific region or continent, but the entire world. Natural causes that impact this phenomenon are inevitable, but human-related activities are accelerating global warming at terrifying rates. This paper will analyze the causes of global warming and how each cause is affecting the future of the world.…
