Global Warming by James Inmon Global Warming is the effect on climate change brought about by human impact on the environment. Just one degree increase in the average global temperature could have a big impact on our world. Three of the more common sources of Global Warming are; the burning of fossil fuels‚ industrial pollution‚ and urban sprawl. Fossil Fuels are carbon based compounds like coal and gasoline. When these fuel sources are burned‚ they release carbon dioxide and other air pollution

I. WHAT IS GLOBAL WARMING? Global warming is the gradual increase of the Earth’s average measured temperature overtime. This measured average temperature is derived from both the near-surface air as well as ocean waters. Scientists began measuring this temperature beginning in the mid-20th century and have continued to monitor fluctuations and deviations in measurements ever since. The average global temperature increased approximately 1.33°F over the past 100 years ending in 2005. This led the

Jacqueline Sanchez Brad Stiles Research Paper Global warming is no longer a myth and as consumers of resources‚ the world has to change and conserve their energy usage. There are many things one can do‚ but informing others how to take these dire steps our world needs in order to survive and support humankind. With CO2 making up over 70 percent of our atmosphere‚ we need to focus not only on how to slow down its growth‚ but removal of it s existence from the atmosphere to the right level of

Climate scientists tell us that global warming is a very serious matter and the world has to make firm decisions to try to slow the warming and eventually to reverse it. Some politicians agree‚ but many lack the political will to press for urgent changes. Many scientists believe it is already too late to stop a 2 degree Celsius rise in temperature. Already there have been changes. Extreme weather events are becoming more common. Heat waves have been happening. Famine is worsening in Africa

Global warming means a gradual increase in the Earth’s average lower atmosphere due to emissions and build up of greenhouse gases . Global warming is when the earth heats up and the temperature rises. It happens when greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide‚ water vapor‚ nitrous oxide‚ and methane trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere‚ which increases the temperature. Greenhouse gases are released mostly by the burning of fossil fuels for transportation‚ heating‚ electrical
