Global Warming by James Inmon Global Warming is the effect on climate change brought about by human impact on the environment. Just one degree increase in the average global temperature could have a big impact on our world. Three of the more common sources of Global Warming are; the burning of fossil fuels‚ industrial pollution‚ and urban sprawl. Fossil Fuels are carbon based compounds like coal and gasoline. When these fuel sources are burned‚ they release carbon dioxide and other air pollution

Global warming You have probably heard about the phrase “global warming” hundreds of times. But what exactly does global warming means? Global warming is not about having a hot day or week or month in one part of the world. It has to do with the average temperature worldwide. Simply put‚ global warming is the unusual rapid increase in earth’s average temperature worldwide. The warming of the earth began in the mid 1800’s. In the beginning it was small and very slow but then in the 1980’s the

Global warming is one of the most challenging environmental problems in existence today. Global warming is an increase in the earth’s temperature due to fossil fuels‚ industry‚ and agricultural processes caused by human‚ natural‚ and other gas emissions. It threatens the health of the earth’s inhabitants and the world’s economies every day. With global warming come longer and more intense heat waves and storms. Along with those climate changes‚ come more pests which in turn can carry devastating

Jennifer May 1st‚ 2014 Paper #9 Global Warming “What is Global Warming?” One might ask. Well‚ Global Warming is an increase in the earth’s average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate and that may result from the green house. Global Warming is a silent murderer. Global Warming is the cause for the many natural disasters. For example‚ haven’t we all noticed the number of large wildfires we’ve had just this

Global Warming Is Not Anthropogenic Global Warming is the increase of Earth’s average temperature over the past one hundred years‚ Earth’s surface temperatures have risen one degree Fahrenheit in the last century. Global Warming is a problem because it is causing ice caps to melt and sea levels to rise. Burning fossil fuels is also releasing more greenhouses gases making temperature rise even more. Temperatures have risen globally because of an upsurge of greenhouse gases and also the Earth’s natural

The biggest threat to life on earth comes from global warming. Rich industrialised countries in the West have been burning fossil fuel such as coal‚ oil and gas for about 150 years‚ pumping out vast quantities of carbon dioxide. This gas traps the heat from the sun and causes the Earth and the atmosphere to get warmer. This is called the greenhouse effect. So why global warming is a problem? Well‚ high level of these greenhouse gases in the atmophere causes climate changes‚ which also lead to

OF GLOBAL WARMING Global warming is defined as an increase in the average temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere‚ especially a sustained increase great enough to cause changes in the global climate. The term global warming is synonymous with Enhanced green house effect‚ implying an increase in the amount of green house gases in the earth’s atmosphere‚ leading to entrapment of more and more solar radiations‚ and thus increasing the overall temperature of the earth.
