Global Warming Will Destroy Our Planet Earth

Every year the average American produces over 22 metric tons of CO2 living a normal life (“What is Carbon Neutrality,” 2008); and the United States as a whole produces 6,049,435 metric tons of CO2 yearly (“List of Countries by CO2 Emissions,” 2010). This disturbing figure is the main cause of global warming and we have yet to take responsibility for our actions. There are many different theories of what has caused global warming and the answer is mankind. Humans are the cause of global warming because of pollution, over population, and deforestation.

Humans. They are the most advanced manifestation of life on the planet Earth. They have assumed control of this planet in only a few thousand of years and in an even shorter amount of time they have widely affected this entire planet. But just because they are advanced doesn't mean they are perfect. They have control over most of the processes that occur on this planet, many of which are essential for the existence of life. Though due to flaws within their physiology as they do not let these processes stabilize, humans instead continue to push the planet past its limits of sustainability. But if these changes do not affect us negatively,

"Global Warming": Global Warming is not a conqueror to kneel before- but a challenge to rise to. A challenge we must rise to.

If we think about the situation we are in, “The environmental crisis” it is difficult to stop this kind of issue just because we are all blinded by other things like our jobs, school, and raising a family. I indeed do understand what the author is trying to stay on how we need not to be selfless and to act upon the things we love but he has to understand that it is all up to a few people living on this planet because out of everyone else living in this crisis they are too busy to even care or notice on behalf of this

The article by Bambury echoes the scientists warning that human beings should stop destroying the environment citing that it will adversely affect their survival. The article states that humans are stewards of the planet Earth and if they destroy it, they will bring misery to themselves. Besides, the study criticizes humans terming them as a species that may phase out other forms of life out of the planet Earth.

During the earth’s 4.5 billion years, it has not been recorded for one species to alter the planet so radically as humans. The Anthropogenic era brings much anticipation and wonder on how far mankind will continue to change the planet and face the upcoming issues such as climate change that humanity will endure in the future.

Elizabeth Kolbert’s Field Notes from a Catastrophe was my first in-depth look into climate change, global warming, and the contribution of humans to these things. Global warming was something I vaguely knew about before reading this book, but it never really caught my attention or seemed like a major issue in the world. After reading Field Notes from a Catastrophe, I realized that it is in fact a major issue that must be addressed by every community. In this essay I will argue that it is our job as the human race to do all that we can to take care of our planet and reduce the amount of global warming that humans are responsible for. This essay is significant because this is our world.

Global warming is a topic that concern many scientists and other people. lbis paper will be stating on the causes,history, technology, and etc. Inthis research paper you will find most of the history of global warming, how it has had a impact on the world, how it impacts us and our daily lives, and etc. Also I (Yarely Juarez) will be stating what are the planning or direction of this technology.

Why are we discussing it? Why the burden of saving the earth is on us? These are some counter-questions people ask to save themselves from the scrutiny. But it is a solid fact that humans are the ones who destroyed the earth and they shall be responsible for giving it back to our future generation as pure as we found it. Now, how can we say that for sure? And if it is really that damaged, what can we do to save it? In this essay, I want to reflect on some important facts that prove we really need to do something for ‘mother earth’.

Global warming is killing humankind. In the essay “Obligation to Endure” by Rachel Carson, Carson explains that humankind has overstepped a boundary which could reconfigure the future of society. Carson argues with appeals, causes and effects, pleas to the audience, and repetitions to prove that there are problems with the use of chemicals in these environments; thus, it is the people’s job to realize and fix these issues. Carson has four main claims that solidify her argument toward a better regulated environment.

Here is a crazy fact for you, “since the late 1970s, the Arctic ocean has lost an average of 20,800 square miles of ice a year” (Ramsayer). That is roughly the size of West Virginia. Global warming is unprecedented situation that will never honestly stop existing. The Earth goes through natural cooling and warming trends. That is why we have in the past we have seen ice ages in Earth’s timeline. The real question is if us as humans are contributing to this global warming. As mentioned in National Geographic, “we have taken a great deal of carbon that used to be locked up in the Earth in the form of coal and undisturbed oil and natural gas and released it into the atmosphere. That carbon hadn’t

Introduction: The only place in our galaxy that we know is inhabitable is now being destroyed by man. As humanity has revolutionized we have created many problems along the way. The main problem we are facing right now is called global warming. We have damaged many ecosystems trying to better ourselves, and we have not yet once thought about the damage we are inflicting on our mother earth. We are already beginning to see the effects of global warming. It will make little changes that will have a huge impact, and devastate many ecosystems and everything living on earth.

Imagine longer summers, shorter winters, with no spring or fall in between. Well you don't have too, because it's happening right now. It will only take one more degree for spring and fall to be gone forever. This decade has been the warmest since 1880. Scientist say that the earth could be warmer by an additional 7.2 degrees Fahrenheit by the 21st century if we don’t reduce usage of burning fossil fuels. Climate change also adds additional risks to our food supplies scientists say they are already seeing the harmful effects in some regions. Polar ice melting would become another major affect of global warming if it isn’t stopped which could cause problems for many lives on Earth not just human beings.

In two recent articles published in National Geographic and NASA Earth Observatory, “Signs From Earth: No Room to Run” and “How Will Global Warming Change Earth?”, both articles serve to raise the reader’s awareness and challenges us to see deeper into the serious implications global warming has, not only in our lives, but also into the life of our fragile ecosystem as well. And while both articles share a distinct similarity in delivering to a audience a message that is both omniscient and foretelling, National Geographic’s article is more informative than NASA’s Earth Observatory for reasons as they are listed below:

We as a society have reached one of the most crucial time periods in the history of our world. Due to the way we have used the resources on this earth we have created a situation in which our climate is drastically changing. The burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil has caused gases like carbon dioxide to become trapped in the atmosphere causing a natural greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect has caused the earth’s average temperature to rise and has resulted in arctic glaciers melting. These glaciers had gases trapped inside them that are now being released into the atmosphere further raising the earth's temperature. Due to the way we are polluting our air we have caused global warming. This global warming has caused stronger natural disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires putting our society in more danger than ever before.
