effects of climate change are slowly affecting our future generation today. Pope Francis‚ S.J had a point in saying that we have the “responsibility to care for our common home” because we are the major contributors to the earths destruction.

many of the most prominent‚ yet commonly looked over‚ indicators of anthropogenic climate change present in society today. Often these indicators are in connection with many other obvious‚ more recognized factors such as the emission of greenhouse gases or the drastic change in global temperatures. More specifically‚ ocean acidity can be looked at very closely to determine the severity of the situation of climate change‚ and how it is consistently affecting our planet’s marine ecosystems in a negative

The main reason of my fascination for climate change issues is that this challenge has brought to surface the impacts and consequences of what I consider the worst face of ignorance:greed; and it raised the importance of collaboration.

Approximately every 100‚000 years Earth’s climate warms up temporarily. These warm periods‚ called interglacial periods‚ appear to last approximately 15‚000 to 20‚000 years before regressing back to a cold ice age climate. At year 18‚000 and counting our current interglacial vacation from the Ice Age is closer to its end than its beginning (Geo Craft). This leads to the growing debate of today‚ is global warming man-made? Or is it just a cycle that the Earth goes through? This is a controversial
