Impacts of Global Warming in the UK Current data for climate change suggest that global warming is taking place due to the enhanced greenhouse effect. If global temperatures continue to rise it will present a number of challenges in the future. Different countries will experience global warming differently depending on their location and level of development‚ but even within a country‚ there will be ‘winners and losers’. For example‚ in the UK Global Warming is good news for coastal resorts‚ especially

Are Humans the cause of Global Warming? How do we know global warming is caused by humans? Can global warming just be a natural cycle for earth? Global warming is a major problem in the world today. Having a hole in the ozone layer isn’t quite beneficial for humans no matter what the cause. Global warming is an increase in the earth’s average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate and that may be resulted from the greenhouse effect. The global average surface temperature

Global warming is the term used to describe a gradual increase in the average temperature of the earth’s atmosphere and its oceans. The idea of Global warning has been around for years and it is believed that human actions is the catalyst to the rise of the temperature of the earth but recent studies and inaccurate information have caused controversy. Scientist don’t agree whether global warming is real or not‚ every day we are shown new evidence of that contradicts another evidence. Some scientist

you don’t know what Global warming is it is the increase in the earth’s average temperature due to the release of several greenhouse gases into the atmosphere by humans. Global warming is affecting many different parts of the world and in turn causes a cause and effect. Glaciers are melting which is causing the sea level to rise. When the sea level rises it causes damage to people living in low lying areas‚ and damages to plants by covering them which causes them to die. Which in turn causes animals

Billy Joel once said‚ “we didn’t start the fire”. He is right; global warming is a natural cause. The Earth was heating long before humans were emitting large amounts of greenhouse gases and even before humans were on planet Earth. Since humans were not alive during the period after the ice age (known as the post-ice age era)‚ then the heating of the Earth to melt the ice does not put humans at fault. Global warming is naturally caused by natural emission of greenhouse gases‚ Earth’s heating and
