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

If you don’t know what global warming is then here is a quick summary. CO2 and other greenhouse gasses rise up into a layer in our atmosphere called the ozone layer. When

ESSAY ON GLOBAL WARMING This subject has been greatly influential on a global level. If it were really an idea or a fact‚ both may apply. But considering the fact that global warming means “climate change”‚ makes it in itself a redundancy‚ and contains a lie. The lie is the suggestion that climate has always been stable. Meanwhile‚ the theory that carbon dioxide drives climate in any meaningful way is simply wrong again. It is also widespread‚ the theory of man-made global warming. It is assumed

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

Is Global Warming a Myth? “Global warming is a fact‚ and human activity is the cause”‚ were the words of Bill Clinton on his views concerning global warming. A biased statement that lacks scientific proof‚ but is partially true. Yes‚ global warming is a fact‚ but it is not only a cause of human activity; it is also occurring due to nature. I believe that Global warming is not a myth. People have many misconceptions in their minds regarding global warming. So what does global warming really mean

In the controversy over whether Global Warming there is two sides in which people can choose either human caused or just Mother Nature doing her thing. Most scientists will tell you that Global Warming is mostly the cause of humans. While there are some who will disagree and say that it is just nature doing what it has done for thousands of years. For most scientists the topic of global warming is one that is caused by us humans. They have many facts data to back this up. Some examples of these
