discovering today. The most important problem started by the industrial revolution is a significant increase in Carbon Dioxide emission‚ which leads to global warming. Globe warming brings about various natural disasters. The most significant disaster is the rising of sea level. Global warming increases the melting of the polar ice caps‚ which brings about a rise in sea level. As sea level rises‚ islands near sea level sink into the sea. Residents on these islands lose their beloved homes‚ and are forced

Proposal Through the research I’ve done on global warming it appears to me that there is no problem with it at all‚ and that there is nothing to worry about. We need to accept that fact that global warming is actually helping the human race in many different ways. For examples the environment is warming up‚ the ocean levels are rising‚ and the increase of carbon dioxide are all benefits to the environment and economy. It’s almost as if global warming is turning the earth into a tropical paradise

Some say that global warming will hurt many people‚ animals‚ and plants. Many cannot take the change‚ so they die. Today‚ there is a general debate on the truth of global warming. Some people claim that this is true while there are a number of doubters. Before addressing my opinion‚ I think it is important to look at the argument on both sides.

Global Warming Global warming occurs when the levels of greenhouse gasses rise and less infrared light‚ or heat‚ escapes the earth’s atmosphere. Thus‚ the temperature experienced on Earth begins to rise. Climate change is a part of the Earth’s history. There have been dramatic fluctuations in overall average temperature for the past 150‚000 years that suggest a direct association with carbon dioxide levels. In the past the temperature highs and lows have been in tandem with carbon dioxide level
