Global Warming

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 be defined as the rise in temperature through human pollution of greenhouse gases resulting in catastrophic alterations in the earth 's environment. However, human pollution of greenhouse gases is so minor that it is not a contribution to the

In recent years, global climate change due to global warming has been largely researched. The paper, “Global Climate Change Triggered by Global Warming,” offers compelling evidence from various scientific papers that the process of Earth’s climate undergoing significant change has already begun and requires our attention due to the probability that human-generated greenhouse gases are the primary cause. Major focal points are shifting towards determining the causes to mitigate the effects rather than establishing the existence as sufficient amount of evidence has proven that global warming is indisputable. During the final decade of the 20th century, climatologists have concluded that the past millennium to be the warmest, especially in the year of 2005. Solutions towards the cause would require assistance from the population as a whole.

The challenge is some of the past development work was done by a consultant. We have option to scale the current work which is not an industry standard and end up paying more money and band aids fixes or develop a new program that we can design and manage for our future growth knowing future growth is inevitable. The risk of continuing the current information system program is low for now, but it will be a major replacement issue for the future growth that could cost the company millions and lost business opportunities. Developing a new information system program is a risky choice from time

Full implementation should be completed in six months. The boundaries are the human resource system. Crossing over into design or inclusion of other departments such as accounting or sales would be out of scope. The business requirements are that the system is to be a single system instead of the multiple tools they are using now. The other business requirement is more vague, only stating that they would like to take advantage of more sophisticated, state-of-the-art technology. Project feasibility is determining if the technical, economical, and operational factors of the project can be accomplished under the schedule given. Technical looks at what hardware and software are available compared to what the requirements of the project are. Economic compares the cost of the overall project to what is budgeted and what can be justified by potential financial returns. Operational factors examine if the system will receive support from the people that use it and make it work (“System Development Life Cycle”, 1998).

The system champion will be responsible for leading the team and that particular team will come together and determine the expectations of the project while creating a project plan. The assembled team must get a list together of goals needed to accomplish within the new system and access the way these goals are going to be accomplished. The goal of the information system is to process and store data while keeping information safe and secure for the organization and within this process the important goals need to be understood by all members of the team, and implemented within the system. There are surveys given to the implementation team, and staff members so that the goals are identified by the importance it holds and will play within the process. Once the goals are determined the team is ready to find a vendor who fits the requirements by creating a list of all vendors to send a request for a proposal to the chosen vendors. The only time an organization accepts a request from the chosen vendors is when and if they are willing to do a demonstration for the staff and team members on the site. This on-site demonstration will help the staff to have a better understanding of the system while making an informed decision based on the information presented. This demonstration will also help the implementation team decide which vendor produces the better system while meeting the

Climate change is a problem that we have been and are currently experiencing. It has caused much damage to people and the environment, by temperatures rising and natural disasters. It is a problem that world leaders need to take more seriously, and try to get more people involved to help better the environment. Who knows what it can cause in the future. Climate change is a serious threat for everyone living on earth.

The earth as we know it is steadily changing. Weather its evolution, technology, weather or our environment, nothings is what it used to be. Climate is a major factor that is changing. This has been going on for quite some time yet, not taken seriously. Our planet has been much warmer in the past 2 centuries then ever before and scientist are working frantically to reduce this trend,

Once the requirements are determined what the system must do, an analysis can be conducted to determine if it is more cost effective to develop the software in house or purchase commercial off the shelf software. In the analysis, both options should include the advantages and disadvantages of both approaches. If it is determined to develop the system in house each component of the system can be refined in detail in layers until they are detailed enough to validate the model of the new system. Utilizing a top-down approach can take advantage of new technology and development of the new system will help control development and cost and deliver a system faster, but the disadvantage of this approach is the system cannot be used until it is fully developed and tested. A bottom-up approach may take longer to develop but the system can be used after completion and testing of the first component, which the organization can see immediate results of the project and the new system can benefit the organization earlier on their

Did you know that Climate change is affecting people all around the world? Climate change is a very bad thing that has been going on for hundreds of years. So many things are being affected by climate change. Things that are being affected are trees, plants, animals, and even people. One reason that climate change is happening is that the earth is always in orbit so the climate is always changing. Climate change isn’t only nature, climate change is caused from humans, the sun, and animals. We are causing climate change by burning things. Scientists predicted this and they’re using models to predict climate change. Snow leopards in the Himalayas are dieing off. Asian Rhinos depend on floodplain grasslands and climate change changes the seasonal patterns the Rhinos go off of. Orang-utans are also one of the species at risk from deforestation. The ice that the Polar Bears use for homes are slowly starting to melt which means they are becoming more and more crowded.

Global warming is an on going issue that exists and affects the entire globe. It is defined as the increase in the overall temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere. The science behind global warming explains its occurrence as incoming sun radiation in the form short waves is transmitted to the atmosphere. Then the Earth’s surface absorbs the radiation. Once the radiation is absorbed it is converted into long wave radiation, which takes about two to three hours; after its conversion the surface emits long wave radiation back to space. However, some of the long wave radiation gets reradiated back since it is not able to pass through the atmosphere due to the weakness of the long waves. Green house gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, ozone, and more then absorb the reradiated radiation causing the Earth to warm, which is known as the green house effect. The intense warmth of the Earth’s surface has lead to global warming. Despite, global warming being a global issue it is also a controversial issue. Since scientists are unable to come to an agreement upon the “real” cause of global warming. The scientific realm is a divided spectrum, where one side such as the International Panel on Climate Change argues, that cause of global warming is due to anthropogenic activities, which have caused the significant increase in the concentration of green house gases. On the other end of the spectrum the Non-governmental International

The Impacts of Climate Change on Society: Global climate change has the ability to adversely impact and disrupt many sectors of society —including, people’s health, agriculture and food supply, water supply, ecosystems, and more. Extreme weather events, such as decreased rainfall, lead to prolonged and more intense wildfire seasons which result in decreased air quality for those in proximity. Droughts increase the stress placed on ground water supplies which is resulting a reduction of water quality due to increased contamination following intense period of rainfall (“Impacts”). Rising temperatures and increased greenhouse gas emissions have led to increased air pollution (i.e. aerosols and black carbon) which is detrimental to individual’s with respiratory problems. Additionally, dry conditions have resulted in an increase in the intensity and duration of allergy seasons in addition to an increase in the spread of insect borne diseases (“Global Warming”). Furthermore, sea level rise and more intense storms puts coastal communities at risk of catastrophic storm surges and flood damage (“Impacts”). Ecosystems that act as natural buffers to combat the impacts of severe weather related events (such as floods and fires) are being devastated. For example, increasing acidification of the oceans in addition to overfishing have disrupted marine-based food production and harmed fishing industries (“Impacts”). The United States energy infrastructure, primarily relating to electricity,

Through the eyes of most scientists, global warming is seen as a very serious and severe threat. The actions taken by humans, such as industry and consumption of fossil fuels plus the increase in population and agriculture have played a big part in global warming. If something is not done soon the results could be very bad.

Many people believe that global warming is a hoax, whereas others claim global warming is a real phenomenon. Global warming is an increase in temperature on our planet Earth, in the water and on land. We are experiencing an increase of temperature as a result of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere because of human activities. Scientific research is proving that since the Industrial Revolution began, human activities have significantly increased the greenhouse effect. Because of these relatively recent industrialized human activities, the greenhouse gasses are being added to our atmosphere at a faster rate than earth’s natural occurring process. Ice sheets are melting in the Arctic oceans because the ocean water is getting warmer. Our planet is facing consequences from this climate change due to Arctic sea ice loss, deforestation, and stronger hurricanes and cyclones.
