APES – Global Warming Evidence “Global Warming Is Rapidly Raising Sea Levels‚ Studies Warn” –National Geographic (March 2006) As we are well aware‚ the earth is undergoing changes each and every day. One change that has silently been increasing over the last half century is the melting of large ice sheets and glaciers‚ leading to a rise in sea levels that has never been seen before; by the end of the century the seas may be one meter higher than they are today. Many are pointing at global warning

concentrations produced by human activity. While there are arguments in favour of natural cause of the global warming‚ I think on balance that the arguments against carry greater weight. A common skeptic argument is that climate has changed naturally in the past‚ long before SUVs and coal-fired power plants‚ and this somehow tells us that humans can’t be the main cause of the current global warming. Peer-reviewed research and simple logic show this is not the case. There are a number of different

And what can we do about it?In a nutshell‚ global warming‚ known as climate change‚ is the heating up of our world. It is the result of huge amounts of CO2 being pumped into the atmosphere‚ via the burning fossil fuels such as coal and oil to produce power and electricity and thousands and thousands

The three main areas to be explored are the relationship between ‘Greenhouse’ effect and global warming‚ the consequences of global warming with evidence and the argument against addressing global warming. The final section will provide suggestions that would overcome the impact of global warming. ‘Greenhouse’ effect ‘Greenhouse’ effect plays an important role on encouraging the generation of global warming.

Informative Synthesis on Global Warming 2007 Abstract Global warming’s a severe concern that is plaguing our environments and communities. Global warming occurred when the rise in the average temperature of both the Earths atmosphere along with the oceans. Since early 20th century the Earth’s temperature has continued to raise giving merit to the beliefs that global warming warrens concern. Jiansong (2011) believed tropical storms became worse over the years and global warming has become such an

Introduction Nowadays‚ Global warming is an incontrovertible fact‚ which proves that our planet and its climate are in trouble. Well global warming is a term that denotes a slow warming of the earth’s regular temperature. It was also named exclusively man-made effects‚ in particular carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide has largely increased during the past forty years‚ and scientists concluded that the average earth temperature has increased solely based on man-made activities such

primary school‚ “Global Warming refers to the increase the temperature of the earth due to the absorption of infrared rays of sun by the greenhouse gases — Carbon dioxide being the major one.” After watching the movie “An Inconvenient Truth”‚ I began to realize what we humans have been doing to our home planet. It forces one to think that humans are the major cause of this hazard. It encourages one to believe the fact that there are ways in which we can reduce the effects of global warming. On the other

Reflecting its global scope‚ evidence of the Little Ice Age appears in the Southern Hemisphere as well. Sediment cores from Lake Malawi in southern Africa show colder weather from 1570 to 1820. A 3‚000 year temperature reconstruction based on varying rates of stalagmite growth in a cave in South Africa also indicates a colder period from 1500 to 1800. A 1997 study comparing West Antarctic ice cores with the results of the Greenland Ice Sheet Project Two (GISP2) indicate a global Little Ice Age affecting
