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

Man made global warming does not exist. Evidence suggests that carbon levels are not abnormally high and that the ice caps are not melting away. There are many reputable scientists who question this theory we call global warming. Others would say it is a way for the government to control more and more of our daily lives and to move along an agenda that benefits certain groups and individuals. Man made global warming is a theory being preached to us as gospel and being taught as fact already proven

Although the author gives several supporting claims and examples to argue for his opinion‚ which is global warming is a good thing‚ I still cannot agree with his point of view‚ because some of the claims do not seem to be valid and need to be clarified further. First all‚ the writer states that coolings seem to be rapid‚ and cause disastrous downfalls of civilization‚ but we can cope with slow upward trends in temperature. It is true that too cold climate can provoke downfalls of civilization‚ but

Global warming is caused by air pollution Global warming has been around our Earth for centuries‚ but recently has become a bigger problem for our environment. There has been debate whether or not global warming is a natural occurrence for our planet‚ and doesn’t really exist. While others argue that human activities is causing global warming. Global warming is caused by many things such as pollution that is damaging our environment. The causes are split up into two groups. There are the natural

(Arbitrage 2005). It has been controversial if carbon dioxide is causing to rise the world’s temperature with long-term destruction to the environment or not. This research involves trying to find out if in fact global warming is happening or not. There are climate research findings which state global warming is happening‚ and there are also findings that this man-caused climate change is not evident. To the layman person‚ the conflicted issue can be rather confusing. The goal of this paper is to show which

Discussion Summer 2009 IQ2 Debate: Global Warming Is Not a Crisis Before I sat down to listen to the debate‚ “Global Warming is Not a Crisis”‚ I was already interested in the idea of global warming. While many people have a hard time worrying about what might happen 100 years from now‚ I don’t. I considered what I already knew about global warming. I was somewhat familiar with the topics of: reducing greenhouse gases‚ moving the world away from fossil fuels‚ providing more breathable air‚ enhancing

Global warming is more danger than any other disasters‚ and it can destroy our world in the future. Global warming is not just happen in certain parts of the Earth‚ but it happens to all over the world. For example‚ the warming of the global vapors the water up in the air‚ and then there will be more rains. Moreover‚ the warming makes the ice melts. When the ice melts‚ the ocean will rise. If the ocean rises higher‚ then the lands will be flooded with water (Meadows‚ 2002). In fact‚ since 1990‚
