http://www.ucsusa.org/global_warming/solutions/ Global Warming Solutions We have the practical solutions at hand to dramatically reduce our carbon emissions‚ slow the pace of global warming‚ and pass on a healthier‚ safer world to future generations. Here’s how we can accomplish it. Global Warming Solutions 1. Reduce Emissions In order to effectively address global warming‚ we must significantly reduce the amount of heat-trapping emissions we are putting into the atmosphere. As

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

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

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

Murphey March 27th‚ 2011 EN 102 Global Warming According to proponents of “Global Warming”‚ they claim that a dramatic rise in the earth’s atmospheric temperature linked to greenhouse gasses and other related phenomena are responsible for the extinction of many species of flora and fauna‚ an unprecedented decline in human and animal food sources and increases in natural disasters. I disagree with this claim and the effects of global warming. These gasses are naturally occurring within

how tornadoes have changed since temperatures started rising. Secondly‚ computer simulated models can’t tell scientists much about tornadoes either. Because these models work on large scales‚ simulating changes in the ocean and the atmosphere on a global scale. In contrast‚ tornadoes are minor weather events. As Dr Suzanne Gray‚ a meteorologist from Reading University explains: "Tornadoes are too small-scale for current climate models to simulate‚ so it is not possible to say very much about

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
