Global Warming Global warming is and has always been one of the most controversial topics to speak about. Global warming is a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth ’s atmosphere‚ generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide‚ CFCs‚ and other pollutants. In the 21st century‚ global warming has become the most important environmental issue that require every Earth ’s citizen attention. Still‚ there are a lot of people do not believe this

factor is the emissions of the so called "greenhouse gases" that have caused the rapid increase in world temperatures. This phenomena has been given the title global warming‚ and has sparked a new debate in local‚ state‚ national‚ and world policy.

Global Warming Global warming means a gradual increase in the Earth’s average lower atmosphere due to emissions and build up of greenhouse gases . Global warming is when the earth heats up and the temperature rises. It happens when greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide‚ water vapor‚ nitrous oxide‚ and methane trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere‚ which increases the temperature. Most greenhouse gases are released by the burning of fossil fuels for heating‚ cooking‚ electrical

Outline Title: Global Warming Introduction/Thesis: Global warming also known as the greenhouse effect is a matter that has received much responsiveness in recent years; however our climate change is not a new problem. It has been changing over many years. What is growing is the rate of change; it is accelerating due to the development of the human population. The growth of our population has enlarged our use of land‚ fuel‚ and manufacturing. All of these are growing releases into our atmosphere

GLOBAL WARMING : WHAT LIES AHEAD GLOBAL WARMING Climate change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather over periods of time that range from decades to millions of years. In recent usage‚ especially in the context of environment policy‚ it is more generally known as "global warming"‚ which occurs due to increasing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Most of the observed temperature increase has been caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases‚ which result

Abstract What is global warming? Global warming is the heating of the earth. Global warming happens when greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide‚ water vapor‚ nitrous oxide‚ and methane trap heat and light from the sun in the atmosphere. This is known as the greenhouse effect. It prevents heat and light from escaping the earth’s atmosphere kind of like the earth is a giant greenhouse. Global warming is a good thing‚ but at the same time‚ can have devastating effects if not properly monitored and

Global warming I N T R O D U C T I O N It’s happening everyday and right now. It is becoming a worldwide problem. This is global warming. Global warming is a serious problem that affects our planet. Is it a natural cause or man-made? It may be natural. Many people point to the melting ice caps as proof that humans are the ones that are causing global warming‚ but what they may not know is that the polar ice caps on Mars are melting too. Humans may not be the main cause of global warming but they
