Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of earth’s atmosphere and oceans. Globalization is the process of extending social relations across world space. Such extension results in simultaneous development in technology and trade. Some of them cause harm to the atmosphere and invites global warming. The increase in the earth’s average surface temperature due to the effect of green house gases such as carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels etc leads to global warming. As

Global warming is the observed increase in the average temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere and oceans. Higher temperatures threaten dangerous consequences: drought‚ disease‚ floods‚ and lost ecosystems. From sweltering heat to rising seas‚ global warming’s effects have already begun. Many people still believe that since the earth is so big‚ human beings cannot possibly have any major impact on the way the planet operates. The truth is we have grown so numerous and our technologies have become so

Global Warming and Human Influence Global warming can be defined as; “An increase in the earth’s atmospheric and oceanic temperatures widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse effect resulting especially from pollution” (Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary‚ 2008). According to University of Phoenix Global Warming (2008)‚ the data accumulated from daily measurements indicate that the Earth’s average surface temperature in 2005 was the third highest since the mid-1800s.

Global warming is causing species to respond to a warmer climate by moving to cooler locations. Most animals live in areas with very specific climate conditions‚ such as temperature that enable them to thrive. Any change in the climate of an area can affect the animals living there‚ as well as the makeup of the entire ecosystem‚ global warming is causing these issues. Many animals are harmed and/or killed by global warming. Water temperature is affecting many animals‚ which is causing population

Many views have been expressed concerning it‚ from the doom-laden to the dismissive. There is little debate that the earth is undoubtedly warming. It has been the subject of intense debate for decades now. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and industrial gases from fossil fuels play a huge role in why our environment is changing

SUMMARY Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the earth’s atmosphere. It happens when high level of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane are trapped in the atmosphere causing a rise in temperature. Although the idea that global warming is similar to climate change‚ there are still some distinctions with these two concepts. As mentioned earlier‚ there is a shift from low temperature to high temperature caused mainly by gases when we speak of global warming. While

Many people believe that trying to fix global warming is a hopeless task‚ however global warming can be halted and could even be reversed. This is a very daunting challenge because it means that people have to change the way they live and do things. We could all choose to ignore this situation but the future impact on our planet is huge. Global warming not only brings about climate changes but also will reduce the level of breathable air (O2) and reduce the levels of drinkable water on our planet

My thesis statement was a multiple sentence statement. It included linking Global Warming to relatable everyday situations‚ and the author trying to inform others about global warming. My writing didn’t really establish authority as‚ my response wasn’t really an analysis. This paper was more so a summary of the article. Although‚ I do have some statements that explain the quotes I used out of the article. My position on the first response paper is to show how the author tries to make this controversial
