1. Global warming was once an uncommon term used by a few scientists who were concerned about the decades of pollution affecting long-term weather patterns. 2. Good morning/afternoon whatever your teachers name is and fellow classmates. Today the idea of global warming is well known‚ but not many people understand it. 3. It is not unusual to hear someone complaining about a hot day or a freak storm and remark‚ its global warming. Well‚ is it? Although there has been a scientific consensus on

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

Although the author gives several supporting claims and examples to argue for his opinion‚ which is global warming is a good thing‚ I still cannot agree with his point of view‚ because some of the claims do not seem to be valid and need to be clarified further. First all‚ the writer states that coolings seem to be rapid‚ and cause disastrous downfalls of civilization‚ but we can cope with slow upward trends in temperature. It is true that too cold climate can provoke downfalls of civilization‚ but

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

The Problem of Global Warming The problem of global warming‚ an increase in the average temperature on Earth‚ is getting worse. The Earth has warmed 0.3 to 0.6 degrees Celsius since the late 1800s. Scientists believe that the cause is the greenhouse effect‚ the process of trapping heat in the Earth’s atmosphere because of the presence of large amounts of carbon dioxide‚ chlorofluorocarbons‚ methane‚ and nitrogen oxides. Less oxygen is being produced and cleaning the atmosphere allowing more

Deforestation Deforestation is clearing Earth’s forests on a massive scale‚ often resulting in damage to the quality of the land. Forests still cover about 30 percent of the world’s land area‚ but large areas the size of Panama are lost each year. The world’s rain forests could completely vanish in a hundred years at the current rate of deforestation. Reasons for Deforestation Forests are cut down for many reasons‚ but most of them are related to money or people’s need to provide for their families

Global warming is the increase in the average measured temperature of the Earth’s near-surface air and oceans since the mid-20th century‚ and its projected continuation. Global surface temperature increased 0.74 ± 0.18 °C (1.33 ± 0.32 °F) during the 100 years ending in 2005.[1][2] The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes "most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-twentieth century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic

Causes of Global Warming Photograph by Peter Essick What Causes Global Warming? Scientists have spent decades figuring out what is causing global warming. They’ve looked at the natural cycles and events that are known to influence climate. But the amount and pattern of warming that’s been measured can’t be explained by these factors alone. The only way to explain the pattern is to include the effect of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted by humans. To bring all this information together‚ the United
