Global Warming: Fact or Fiction? Many consider global warming to be the largest threat facing the people of Earth‚ while others view it as nothing more than Liberal propaganda. Both sides have extremely well thought out arguments. According to Environmentalist there is a growing realization that human activities are threatening the health of the natural systems that make life possible on this planet. While Non-believers claim that you can’t find a real scientist anywhere in the world who can

The Human Factor of Global Warming The Human Factor of Global Warming Global warming has been a growing concern for many over the last several decades. The effects of global warming are evident and broad‚ with historical research dating the first global warming crisis back 56 million years ago‚ better known as the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum‚ or PETM (Jardine‚ 2011). Research from the composition of sediments of fossils shells of marine organisms conclude that carbon dioxide trapped within

What is Global warming? This vast topic has many definitions for different reasons. Global warming could happen due to the pure existence of human life. The day to day things that we do could result in global warming. Driving our motor vehicles‚ burning of fuel and trees could trigger the warming mechanism. There are different aspects to this. I chose this topic since it has an in-depth argument point and it can be very well detailed in to several different parts. For my research I will be discussing

Simple Solutions to Global Warming Linda Hunt ITT Technical Institute Simple Solutions to Global Warming The most prominent concern that affects the environmental health of the world today is global warming. Although government agencies are making significant strides in providing solutions to global warming‚ the ultimate solution may lay in the hands of the individual citizens. Simple things‚ such as the way electricity is used in homes‚ the production of waste‚ and the choice of transportation

If 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

Global warming is result of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. These gases trap radiation from sun and hold them from being released back into space. This causes rise in temperature at few places on earth. It is not much noticeable in western part of earth but in eastern parts like North Pole‚ Alaska and others slight increase in temperatures makes a huge difference. Scientists believe that if current situation continues many kinds of changes will take place which can be either beneficial or harmful

Global Warming Debate Today we are debating the important topic of global warming. As the affirmative team‚ we strongly believe that global warming is caused by the actions of humans. But this is not just a belief‚ this is a fact. Global warming‚ by definition‚ 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. The greenhouse effect is the trapping of the

WAYS TO REDUCE THE EFFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING Global Warming refers to the gradual increase in the Earth’s temperature as a result of the growing concentration of human induced green house gases which are carbon dioxide‚ chlorofluorocarbons and hydro fluorocarbon in our atmosphere. Global warming can be caused by the use of fossil fuels‚ and industrial or agricultural processes. Man-made emissions are adding to the amount of carbon dioxide already being naturally released.
