“Preservation of our environment is not a liberal or conservative challenge‚ it’s common sense.” -Ronald Reagan.[1] Global warming is the rise of the temperature in air and the major reason of this problem is the drastic increase in the emission of CO2 caused by burning fuels.[2] The rise of the greenhouse gases started around the 1950’s because of the rise of industries and factories. [3] Global warming didn’t start in a specific location rather in the places with a higher industrial concentration like in United

The theory of global warming is nothing new. The Nobel Prize-winning chemist Svante Arrhenius first proposed the idea of global warming in 1896. Carbon dioxide‚ he knew‚ traps heat in the Earth’s atmosphere. He also knew that burning coal and oil releases carbon dioxide (CO2). Arrhenius speculated that continued burning of coal and oil would increase concentrations of CO2 in the Earth’s atmosphere‚ making the planet warmer. It’s called thegreenhouse effect. What warms the Earth? To determine what

Global temperatures on the Earth’s surface have increased by 1.1 degrees Fahrenheit during the last century‚ faster than any time in the last 1000 years (Rauber 41). Consequently‚ the 1990s was the warmest decade in the last 1000 years (“Global Warming”). As humans emit fossil fuels‚ greenhouse gasses slowly warm the Earth’s atmosphere (“EPA Global”). This gradual process is known as global warming. As glaciers begin to melt‚ sea levels rise and coastal areas in Florida may suffer immense losses

of ecosystems to threats to human health. Experts in fields from forestry to economics‚ even national security experts‚ pitched in to assess the range of possible consequences. It was impossible to make solid predictions given the complexity of the global system‚ the differences from one region to another‚ and the ways human society itself might try to adapt to the changes. But by the start of the 21st century‚ it was clear that climate change would bring serious harm to many regions — some more than
