Global warming what is it? Global warming refers to an average increase in theEarth’s temperature‚ which in turn causes changes in climate. So what’s the big deal you ask? Well the big deal is‚ if temperatures rise above normal levels for a few days‚ it’s no big deal‚ the Earth will stay more or less the same‚ but if temperatures continue to rise over a longer period of time‚ then the Earth may experience some serious problems! What causes global warming? The Earth’s atmosphere contains gases that

Global warming is called the greenhouse effect because the gases that are gathering above the earth make the planet comparable to a greenhouse. By trapping heat near the surface of the earth‚ the greenhouse effect is warming the planet and threatening the environment. Many scientists criticized Mr. Hansen’s report‚ and the debate over global warming continues today. Current fears stem largely from the fact that global warming is occurring at such a rapid pace. Models are predicting that over the

PLAN Ways to Slow Down Ozone Depletion Global warming refers to an increase in the average temperature of the Earth as a result of the greenhouse effect‚ in which gases in the upper atmosphere trap solar radiation close to the planet’s surface instead of allowing it to dissipate into space. Both natural and human-made conditions can contribute to global warming‚ but human beings can do several things to reduce the effects. The biggest cause of global warming is the carbon dioxide released when fossil

the only planet we can live in and it’s the only planet we have so we have to take care of it. Knowing this we are still hurting it‚ whether it is through degrading the soil or through CFC’s. Global Warming is real and its hurting our environment and it’s entirely our fault. It’s true that Global Warming happens naturally however because of the human race we have increased how fast it’s happening. There have been many meetings with other nations to control the amount of carbon-dioxide released.

the hysteria‚ all of the fear‚ all of the phony science‚ could it be that man-made global warming is the greatest hoax ever perpetrated on the American people? It sure sounds like it‚” said James M. Inhofe a member of the U.S. Senate. Could this be the true? Many facts behind the controversial issue of global warming prove this statement to correct. Global warming is not caused by human activities. Global warming cannot be completely caused by human’s emission of greenhouse gasses.” In the last

GLOBAL WARMING AND IT’S EFFECTS ON GLACIERS Global Warming The average global temperature has raised more than expected in the past few decades. Many prefer to use the milder term ’climate change’ instead of the harsher ’global warming’ to describe this change in average global temperature. The main cause of global warming is thought to be the ’greenhouse effect’ that is mainly caused by us humans. With an increase in temperature glaciers worldwide are melting faster than the time taken for

In the mid-twentieth century the earth’s average temperature is increasing due to the fact that global warming is taking place. Global surface temperature has increased about a degree in the past century. The progressive gradual rise of the earth’s surface temperature thought to be caused by the greenhouse effect is responsible for changes in global climate patterns. An increase in the earth’s atmospheric and oceanic temperatures is widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse

Global warming is a myth and should not be feared. The theories behind global warming are filled with false claims and incorrect information. With all of the information it is hard to separate the truth from the lies. When the true facts are presented before you what is truth and what is fiction becomes clear. First‚ scientists have made claims on data that may be incorrect. Scientists claim some of their data from weather stations‚ but this data may be incorrect. “Temperature readings can vary

People are all carrying an umbrella when they step out of house as they cannot stand the blistering heat. This is caused by global warming‚ isn’t it? Global warming has resulted many negative effects and they are mainly caused by human activities. Hence‚ we‚ humans should stop global warming. Human activities produces 75% of annual carbon dioxide emissions. Firstly ‚the greenhouse gases has caused temperatures to increase. Since 1861‚ the average temperature has increased by 0.6 Degree Celsius
