But just in the past 67 years‚ we have seen an incredible rise to over 400 parts per million and still rising. Scientists contribute this from the industrial revolution and the amount of fossil fuels we burn into our air. This has caused global climate change to include the average

pretty irrelevant in the world today‚ its break off from the ancient supercontinent Gondwanaland 30 million years ago‚ played a crucial role in stabilizing the climate for human life. In particularly‚ Its separation from South America created water gaps which allowed winds to sweep around the world.In addition‚ the separation created a cooler climate more stabilized for human life (Linden‚ 35). It was not until 5‚000 years ago when urban societies developed laying the foundations for civilizations.

Climate change is the largest threat to life on Earth that we currently face. Despite the overwhelming scientific consensus on the issue‚ only half of Americans believe that climate change is human-caused. Without a vast majority of the world’s population expressing concern about climate change and working to enact societal reform‚ little can be done to effectively address this extremely time-sensitive issue. In this paper‚ I will explore the main contributing factors to both literal and implicatory

does that have to do with climate change? As China and its neighbors economies grow‚ the need for more energy increases. In order to meet their energy demands‚ industries have to use fossil fuels for energy. Fossil fuel burning accounts for 75% of the total global energy use (Ciserone‚ 2000‚ p. 1). When fossil fuels are burned‚ greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere thickening the air‚ trapping heat and other pollutants increasing the chances for climate change thru human induced activities
