Global Warming And Its Effect On The Environment

How does the daily action of driving a car contribute to global warming pollution and other air pollutions? Economic growth has triggered an explosion in the automobile industry, but along with that expansion comes consequence. The motor vehicle business has increased air pollution, causing acid rain, and has also contributed to global warming. Global warming is the process of the earth heating up due to increased levels of gases such as carbon dioxide, on the the leading emissions from cars. Most americans drive a car in their day to day lives without being aware of the toxic emissions escaping right out of their tailpipe. The lack of knowledge about car emissions is dangerous because people do not fully understand how devastating it is on the environment. Emissions from cars are deadly to the environment and to the long term health of humans, if this problem is not addressed the future of the earth will be at risk. Eco friendly cars such as electric and solar powered cars have already been invented however their popularity is lacking, if the general public understood the momentousness of this issue maybe that would persuade them to partake in the movement.

“Global warming is the term used to describe a gradual increase in the average temperature of the Earth 's atmosphere and its oceans, a change that is believed to be permanently changing the Earth’s climate” (Goguen). Day-to-day, fossil-fuels are being burned; humans are deforesting land, driving cars, creating and demolishing buildings, and much more; these activities result in the release of greenhouse gases (Goguen). Architects are now being awakened by global warming issues and are planning ideas to alter their designs to reduce carbon emissions for future buildings. Correspondingly, colleges are beginning to prepare architecture students on how to design buildings that are carbon-neutral, and educating them on the

The purpose of this essay is to report on global warming, the evidence available, impact and actions to mitigate the phenomenon. Global warming is the single most significant occurrence in modern history as it is bound to change many aspects of life as we know it today. The essay begins by defining global warming and providing evidence that global warming exists. Reports of increasing carbon dioxide gas levels, increasing temperatures, melting ice caps and mountain glaciers and rising sea levels are examined. The report also looks into some of the arguments against global warming and disproves them. Lastly, the impact of global warming on cities, islands, food security and biodiversity is examined and actions that can be taken to reduce the progression of the phenomenon discussed.

Global warming is one of the biggest critical and controversial issue facing the world in the twenty-first century. Releasing carbon dioxide at contemporary rates will soon thrust Earth’s temperature significantly up. If the world keeps on going to burn fossil fuels at the current rate, crossing a threshold will hurt all aspects of human civilization: food, water, health, energy, economy and national security and of course, the environment which is the most important aspect. How does it influence our life? What are the effects of global warming you might ask yourself? Well, there are many effects that global warming is having on the environment, particularly rise of sea levels, melting of glaciers, and climate change.

In modern society, we are surrounded by a plethora of advertisements, and the problem with the ad overhaul is that most of them do not serve a purpose other than to sell merchandise to the consumer. But what if more advertisements focused on real-world issues? Issues such as global warming and the impact humans have on the environment. An advertisement by Legambiente does not try to sell you anything. Instead, they target the world to disclose the truth behind global warming. Alongside Legambiente resides Greenpeace, trying to get the world to realize the damage we cause to the oceans. These advertisements are trying to help change society 's attitude and understand that humans have a horrendous impact on the environment. Society needs to make a change in its daily habits if we want to have a planet to live on.

The definition of Global warming is; "a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth 's atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons, and other pollutants." Global warming is a very big issue that is slowly affecting the whole world. Climate change has been studied since the early 1970’s, and scientist of many different fields are agreeing that global warming’s effects are increasing at a rapid pace. Global Warming was not yet taken serious until the 1960 's when the scientist found out that Global Warming would effect the food supply, and the ocean 's would increase, which is a threat to the human society. The temperature which has fluctuated over

For over a hundred years, humans have understood the possibility of atmospheric warming due to anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions. As early as 1896, Swedish chemist Svante Arrhenius predicted that a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide would raise average global temperatures by 4.95 degrees C (9.0 degrees Fahrenheit) (Valente, 1995). The greenhouse effect, a natural phenomenon that has allowed the development of life on earth, is thought by many scientists to have been radically altered by humankind’s impact on the composition of the atmosphere. The problem lies in humans’ effects on the dynamic nature of the heat exchange process of the sun, earth, and black space. These alterations threaten to transform the global environment. As one author imagined it, “The year is 2035. In New York, palm trees line the Hudson River … Phoenix is in its third week of temperatures over 130 degrees … Holland is under water. Bangladesh has ceased to exist … in central Europe and in the American Midwest, decades of drought have turned once fertile agricultural lands into parched deserts (Rifkin, 1988).”

Global warming is phenomena linked to temperature rising because of emissions of carbon dioxide and other gases. It is one of the most important debates of today because of the seriousness of its impact on life on earth. The issue though is debated for its being just a reality or as a theory. Scientists are of the view and they provide evidence as well to support their argument that industrialization and energy utilization has the caused emissions of certain gases in our atmosphere. Those emissions are causing the temperature rise globally. So, in one way or the other, humans are cause of this trouble to the planet earth. They say that the rising temperature is melting glaciers and rising water level which would cause floods. On the other

Global warming is a subject that elicits different opinions, even in the political sphere. During the 2016 presidential campaign, the Democratic candidates all declare that global warming is a national crisis and that some policies need to be implemented. On the other hand, the majority of the Republican candidates claims that global warming is all a hoax and that designing policies to combat global warming are a waste of money and energy. The different stances happening in the political sphere are also happening outside of the political sphere. Everyone in the world has different views on global warming, but very few of us did anything to lessen the impact of global warming in that the majority of us each drive our own fossil fuel-using vehicles instead of using public transportation, and the majority of us rarely reuses and recycle. Global warming occurs when carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases trap heat in Earth 's atmosphere because some of the sun 's rays cannot escape. It is a worldwide phenomenon that impacts each and every one of us because it cause irregular climate patterns, increases the sea levels, and decreases human living standards.

The government and Darpa have openly admitted in creating a way to manipulate the weather, the reason the government would have created a way to manipulate weather is for self-benefit of the country or for political reasons, such as dis-forming a monstrous hurricane or helping precipitation occur in an area suffering with drought, the end game in this conspiracy would be for the United States to have complete control if manipulating the weather anywhere in the world and by doing this it would allow the U.S. to have total control of the other countries and continents.

As technology continues to advance, and as the population continues to grow and the individual life expectancy becomes longer, the global environment is being negatively impacted by various human and natural activities that are detrimental to the environment. Unfortunately there are many global environmental issues that need the attention of world leaders today, and have become undisputed environmental issues in today’s society. However, the most important public health, environmental issue I would like to address in my discussion is global warming. Furthermore, global warming influences a great amount of climate changes in the global arena. Hence, its befitting to say that, most issues associated with climate changes around the world and global warming or increased atmospheric temperature are intertwined.

The earth is getting warmer, animals and their habitats are declining, human health is at risk and the cause of all this terror is Global Warming. Global warming will cause many parts of the world to change. In the next 50 years climate change could be the cause of more than a million terrestrial species becoming extinct. Sea levels will raise which means more flooding and is not good for the plants. With too much water the plants will die and herbivores will lose their food source as well as their habitats. As a result the food chain will be broken and survival for any creature is slim to none. In conclusion, Global Warming is an important issue, but before we can devise any solutions we must first understand the causes. This paper will focus on the causes of global warming and argue that excessive carbon dioxide emissions is the predominate cause.

Global warming, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, “refers to the recent and ongoing rise in global average temperature near Earth 's surface.” Effects of human influence on the environment has long been a cause of concern regarding the disturbance of the “natural order.” Although a cycle which results in the periodic increase and decrease of the average global temperature has long been known to exist, due to new data suggesting the substantial and relatively recent spike in global temperatures, the idea that humans have become major contributors to the increase of temperature is now widely accepted. Our inability to find a solution to the effects of climate change has resulted in the evident deterioration of our environment.

The environment plays an integral part of offering and sustaining livelihoods to billions of humans around the globe. Without rain, food security is adversely threatened, meaning that humans’ most vital need could be affected. Recently, the issue of global warming has caught many nations’ attention as carbon emissions significantly cause it. Greenhouse gas emissions around the world have been somehow unavoidable, but countries have sought methods to mitigate the inevitable outcomes. While it often seems as though this task is too daunting to overcome, this paper asserts that with the right approach, carbon emissions could be controlled thus reducing the destructive impacts on the environment, which inevitably lead to dire

When I thought of global warming, I would think of warmer and shorter winters, longer and hotter summers. But global warming is more than we think and there is effective ways to make our world safer and healthier. In order to end global warming, we must get companies to adapt to eco-friendly manufacturing and distribution practices. But first we must educate ourselves on what global warming really is.
