Global Warnings Controversy over global warming exists as a dispute regarding the nature and consequences of global warming. The theory of global warning as presented in the mainstream media currently assumes that carbon dioxide is an atmospheric greenhouse gas and since humans are producing more carbon dioxide than previously‚ the temperature must therefore rise. The cause of global warming is not actually known‚ but in it ’s simplest terms the debate boils down to whether or not global warming

to many island nations around the world. The main cause of these disappearances is “global warming” which is defined as “an increase in the earth’s average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate”1. Controversial debates on causes of global warming are on-going. According to the research conducted by Derek Markham‚ a famous analyst on climate change‚ the main causes of global warming may be carbon dioxide emissions from burning plants and gasoline‚ deforestation and increased

Is Global Warming real? The term global warming does not have a universal definition. It is a term used by many governments‚ organisations and companies to describe the rise in the average temperature on Earth’s surface. Deborah White says ‘Global warming refers to the increased temperature of Earth’s surface‚ including land‚ water and near-surface air’. The atmosphere is made up of various gases‚ some of these gases are called greenhouse gases. These natural gasses do not cause concern‚ however

Strazimiri School: Braemar College Biology 11 December 12 ‚ 2012 Photosynthesis and global warming Introduction: Photosynthesis can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. It represents a sink for carbon dioxide in the environment. Reducing forests and other vegetation can produce a net increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide. Therefore‚ more photosynthesis might act to reduce global warming. On the other hand‚ this is a more complicated title than it appears at first. Photosynthesis:
