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

Global Warming AD As the sun’s harmful rays beam through the depleting ozone layer the globe begins to warm‚ earths polar ice caps melt and slowly start the elimination of life. This ad demonstrates the cause and effect of global warming. The world inside the lower quadrant of the hourglass is slowly getting swallowed by the sea due to the melting ice caps above. Within the hourglass there’s text stating “we are slowly running out of time‚ act now before it’s too late”. In the top of the hour glass

GLOBAL WARMING AND ITS ADVANTAGES It is apparent that this is an important environmental issue that most people believe is not occurring. With almost all bad situations it is very frequently that we have something positive come out of it. Global Warming is in most cases always viewed as a problem; one that is horrifying‚ going to end up flooding the world and in turn end it as well. After doing research on the subject matter I have come to realize a more positive outlook on what everyone has a

What is Global Warming? Global Warming is defined as the increase of the average temperature on Earth. As the Earth is getting hotter‚ disasters like hurricanes‚ droughts and floods are getting more frequent. Over the last 100 years‚ the average temperature of the air near the Earth´s surface has risen a little less than 1° Celsius (0.74 ± 0.18°C‚ or 1.3 ± 0.32° Fahrenheit). Does not seem all that much? It is responsible for the conspicuous increase in storms‚ floods and raging forest fires

In this picture ‚ you can take conclusion that the ice is melting rapidly and thus the water level is rising at a fast speed. This is all happening from global warming. This can cuase many animals to die or get extinct‚ also the people that are living nearby can also be affected by this. Global warming is caused by burning fossil fuels and forests‚ we lately have been doing this a lot. The polar bear is saying “ha ha youre eliminated!” to the other polar bear because there playing musical ice chairs

Help prevent Global Warming There is no doubt the Planet Earth is getting warmer and warmer by the day. Global warming is the rising temperature on the planet Earth’s surface and it’s oceans. Global warming effects everything including our ocean temperature and the amount of precipitation. There are many things we could do to stop global warming. If more and more people started to recycle that would be a great start. You can even turn this into a fun family activity. Another one is if people

enhanced society in each country’s economy‚ therefore the world has been continuing this‚ up ‘til now. How fast globalisation have been rising and spreading has gradually affected the environment rigorously. The effects of globalisation are: regional and global inequality; climate change and increasing poverty. The consequences of globalisation can be found and seen anywhere and everywhere for example: a few wealthy people and relentless poverty for everyone else. Plus Globalisation clearly involves trading

Global Warming General Purpose: To inform my audience about the effects of global warming. Specific Purpose: I want my audience to understand briefly the negative effects of global warming in our environment. INTRODUCTION The negative effects of global warming are slowly ruining the environment we live in. In a few decades‚ it is possible our Earth will be very uncomfortable to live on. I have researched the issues of global warming and have found out as much as I possibly can in order

the burning of fossil fuels" - David Bellamy Global warming can be defined as the gradual increase in the temperature of the earth’s atmosphere and the question over what has been causing this increase in temperature has sparked many debates throughout the world. There is certainly evidence to suggest that global warming is a real issue‚ not just an urban myth. Since pre-industrial times (i.e. before the industrial revolution in the late 1700s) global average temperatures have risen by about 0.7°C
