Global Warming is having many affects on Minnesota’s weather and is still getting worse to this day. It is causing more rain and snowstorms every year. Minnesota is one of the states that is getting affected the worst. The world’s temperature has been rising almost a third of a degree per decade since 1970. Compared to most other states‚ Minnesota has been having temperature increases and more big rainstorms. Rising temperatures in Minnesota have caused less snow but more rain and mud. The

Global warming has a big effect on the Earth. It can spread diseases. Global warming‚ warms the water which causes erratic weather. It increases the probability and intensity of droughts and heat waves. Global warming can also lead to the melting of the polar ice caps. Finally it can have great economic consequences. Global warming can lead to a spread in diseases across the world. As northern countries warm‚ disease carrying insects migrate north‚ bringing plague and disease with them. With warmth

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

Global Warming: Fact or Fabrication Thousands of coastal cities and even whole islands are at risk of being claimed by the ocean due to sea levels worldwide rising at a rate of 0.14 inches per year since the early 1990s (Sea). This increase in sea levels is generated by global warming. Global warming‚ also known as climate change‚ is a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth’s atmosphere and oceans‚ that could have a permanent and devastating effect on the world (Global). It has

Over the past few decades scientist have been observing a warming trend in the over all temperature of the earth. Although the earth has been known to go through warm and cold periods‚ it seems that we humans are causing the earth to heat up this time. The greenhouse effect is causing the earth to go through this warming trend that we call global warming. The greenhouse effect is caused when the infrared radiation from the sun is absorbed in atmospheric gasses such as water vapor‚ carbon dioxide
