which made conditions even drier (Jeffery, Ellen, et al. 2015). Although the drought especially the latest drought period cannot be blamed on climate change as a result of human activity, it is still a major cause of the same. According to Justin Gillis in his article in the New York times, he says that, “Global warming caused by human emissions has most likely intensified the drought in California by 15 to 20 percent, scientists said on Thursday, warning that future dry spells in the state are…

current humans find themselves in the dilemma of understanding how this ambiguous giant system works everyday to support their lives and even in fixing what may or may not be broken about it. The purpose of this study is to explore options that humans have to change the outcome of global warming by looking at what the primary causes are and what options are available by reviewing current research in the field of geology. This will be done over the subject of the gases, which contribute to global warming…

Overview Global warming is the environmental and social changes caused by emissions of greenhouse gases. Human activities have been the primary cause of this significant change, resulting with extreme weather conditions, increasing sea levels, and climate changes. In this paper I will compare and contrast natural versus anthropogenic climate changes of global warming, mitigation strategies, mitigation effectiveness, policy implications, costs, and address some policy changes to help stabilize…

Is Human Activity Primarily Responsible for Global Climate Change and Global Warming? What is global climate change? Is human activity primarily responsible? According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency, global warming “refers to the recent and ongoing rise in global average temperature near Earth 's surface. It is caused mostly by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Global warming is causing climate patterns to change. However, global warming itself…

Global warming is caused by emission of greenhouse gases. 72% of the totally emitted greenhouse gases Is carbon dioxide. CO2 is inevitably created by burning of fuels like e.g. Oil, diesel, petrol etc. The use of such fuels can be minimized by using alternative fuels which do not contain carbon or contain less carbon. The alternative fuels such as ethanol produced from renewable lignocellulosic resources or fuels produced from seawater. Research on improving ethanol production is accelerating for…

Global Warming Global warming appears to be caused by human beings. There is too much CO2 in the atmosphere for plants and trees to take in all of it. There is strong evidence that humans are to blame, not just due to cars and factories but also from agriculture. A majority of scientists and scientific organizations believe humans are causing global warming. Global Warming is controversial. It is a perplexing phenomenon. Some people think it is a normal occurrence, others are afraid…

At first thought the essay topic global warming, seemed simple. After researching many sites, such as National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), University studies, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) studies, Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change (NIPCC), and more, global warming is very complicated. It hinges on many factors, solar activity, deforestation, increase in carbon dioxide from forest floors, obliquity (change in axil tilt of Earth), volcano eruptions…

Weather Change and Transportation Global warming and greenhouse emissions. There is an evident growing of the economy by the growing of the population. As a result, it is expected an increasing on greenhouse emissions which are the responsible for the climate change. From 1970 to 2005, greenhouse emissions raised 61 %( more or less 1.4% per year). CO2 is the biggest source, raising about 86%. The greatest growing in global CO2 emissions came from power generation and road transport as it is showing…

Global Warming, Not Caused by Humans In modern America few problems prove to be as fundamentally problematic as the theory of human induced global warming. Its repeated coverage from within the media and political arena are influencing people worldwide, putting those who think differently in an outcast shadow. The truth of the matter is, to not believe in human induced global warming has become politically incorrect and unacceptable in the public eye. The theory of human induced global warming can…

Damage caused by environmental destruction is often very subtle which tends to influence the scale of harm based on the crimes that are caused by individual wrongs. Environmental damaged that is caused by just one individual is exclusively minor which causes it to be unnoticed, whereas a major group of people harming the environment at once causes major harm to society. In the last few decades, there has been a heightened awareness of environmental issues by governments, policy makers, advocacy groups…
