The Importance Of Climate Change

“Scientists’ overwhelming conclusion is that climate change is happening and human activity is the primary culprit,” (“Climate Change”). The world we live in is falling apart more and more every day. Pollution; Global Warming; Climate Change; These are all problems that caused by people who have come forward in recent years, one of the biggest issues is climate change. The United States government needs to take aggressive steps to combat climate change because scientist have warned that if the climate changing progresses at its current rate, it could have disastrous consequences for life on Earth. Data shows that climate change is linked to rising sea levels, droughts, an increase in the risk of extinction of many species, and the increase in severe storms. With all the issues that are connected to climate change we are not doing enough to try to counteract the lasting effects it has on our environment.

Global climate change has become an undeniable and unavoidable reality. In its latest assessment report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the international body that provides the most comprehensive reports dealing with the science of climate change, has established that warming of the climate system is ‘unequivocal’. Additionally, it concludes that human activities such as land clearing and burning of fossil fuels have increased the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere to unprecedented levels (IPCC 2013).

Climate change is a real problem facing our world with all of the progression of today’s society. The amount of Greenhouse Gas emissions has gone up drastically in the past one hundred years alone. The use of transportation, industry, electricity and the deprivation of the world's natural resources has increased the amount of Carbon Dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere. The Environmental Protection Agency has shown an increase in the Earth's temperature by 0.8 degrees C in the past century alone. It is proven that humans are the cause of global warming but it is not too late to change how we are.

Climate change looms large over our rapidly growing and continually changing world. No longer are the adverse effects of this menacing global issue a mere ominous projections, they are starting to become a very concrete reality. Countries are today experiencing rising sea levels, which compromises coastal infrastructure, prolonged drought, squeezing food supply and agricultural productivity, as well as extreme storms. Rising temperatures have already led to vast reductions in the size of the Arctic. There is now no doubt amongst scientists that anthropogenic activity has been the primary catalyst to the

If one were to ever ask, “What’s the biggest issue that humanity is facing right now,” there would be one clear answer. The answer would be the issue that affects everyone in the planet, leaving no area untouched. It would be the one that is destroying the Earth’s limited resources, from removal the green forests to the tainting of the clear skies and the crystal arctic ice. It would be the issue that’s killing wildlife, making storms more intense, heating the planet’s surface, and most importantly, it would be the one that is currently escalating, with no end in sight. That issue, that grievous perpetual one, is the issue of climate change. Climate change is the one issue that is at the highest of importance right now because its effects range the widest and cut the deepest. Climate change is caused nearly completely by humans. This is mostly through the release of greenhouse gases, which warm the environment. Humans release greenhouse gases in various ways, from high industrial emissions to wildlife farming. Humans also further affect the environment through deforestation and further destruction of natural environments. Despite these clear causes of environmental impacts, some argue that humans are not the cause of these changes in the climate. Rather, they say that these climate changes are caused by natural cycles. However, these claims are short-sighted, for such cycles are not nearly substantial enough to cause the effects that are visible today. Due to increased

In this 21-century climate change is becoming worse and worse. There is water levels are rising, animals in cold areas are starting to die because of the rises temperatures, and humans' health is being at risk, why because of human activities. The activities that humans mostly do is burning fossil fuels and deforestation.

Recently, the idea of global warming has been under fire by people who claim it to be a hoax. Even “President-elect Donald Trump said Sunday that “nobody really knows” whether climate change is real” (Eilperin). Even with skepticism, the largest problem facing the world in coming years will undoubtedly be environmental issues. All across the globe, millions of people and thousands of communities feel the effects of global warming and deforestation daily. Whether through a loss of water, rising sea levels, or even a decrease in agriculture, the world is changing and suffering as a result.

climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. It is undisputedly clear that human are partly responsible for global warming through deforestation burning fossil fuels and other changes we have caused to the land. There has not only been a significant increase in temperature across the globe but the seal level has rose 20cm in the past century alone. the (Intergovernmental panel of climate change, IPCC) has also tracked the “unprecedented recent rise in atmospheric carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases since the beginning of the industrial revolution.” It is alarming that the emissions of greenhouse gas continue to rise globally and it is deeply concerning that all countries, particularly developing countries, are vulnerable

Climate change is the single biggest environmental and humanitarian crisis of our time. Our Earth’s temperature is climbing at an alarming rate. Earth 's average temperature has risen by 1.4°F over the past century, and is projected to rise another 2 to 11.5°F over the next hundred years. The planet is seeing the devastating effects of a warmer earth; warmer oceans, melting ice caps, and rising sea levels. As these and other changes become more pronounced in the coming decades, they will likely present challenges to our society and our environment.

Climate change is a global problem that is affecting Earth’s delicate ecosystem. Many problems are present in our world today, such as starvation, flooding, heat waves, droughts and disease. These issues are likely to worsen as climate change takes its toll. In the past, the cause of this severe climate change was unknown. Today, it is known that manmade climate change is occurring. Scientists have discovered that humans have had the greatest impact on the Earth’s ecosystem. Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, are causing the Earth to get hotter. Although humans are not the only cause of climate change, we contribute to this world wide problem because of the actions we take, which if affecting us now and will continue to affect us in the future.

Climate change has been discussed a plethora of times in the science community. Only a small number of scientists believe that climate change is not happening. Most scientists today agree that climate change is indeed happening and its causing extreme damage to the planet. What is majorly causing climate change is the burning of fossil fuels. The gasses released are affecting the atmosphere creating a greenhouse like effect on the earth which makes the temperature of the earth rise. Climate change is extremely affecting Polar Bears and other animals close to extinction that crucially rely on sea ice. Another major climate change affect is Coral Bleaching, which it is caused by the ocean water temperature

The spread of diseases increases with changes of temperature and other natural elements. For example higher temperatures increase cases of salmonella and other food-borne diseases. This happens all over the states. For instance, the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) estimates 26 million to 74 million foodborne diseases in Louisiana. Having known this, it is important for us to realize the affects climate change has on air-borne diseases.

An issue that is felt throughout the world is Anthropogenic Climate Change formally known as Global Warming. This word wide problem is one that needs to be addressed immediately as well as long term. Anthropogenic Climate Change is the rise of the earth’s temperature caused by human activities. The continuing rise in the earth’s temperature will cause extreme change in our earth’s ecosystems. The predetermined course to our ecosystems relies on climate change and its effects on ecosystems and life as we know it is at a vulnerable state. Anthropogenic Climate Change shifts relations with human life and presents severe biodiversity in

The earth is a beautiful and extraordinary planet, but are we treating it right? For the past 20 decades, temperatures have been rising along with hundreds of factors contributing to it. Climate change concerns the public as they wonder if its occurring, how much has occurred in the modern era, what has caused it, what the effects will be if we don’t do anything about it and much more. Many people and scientist agree that mankind is the number one cause of climate change. Humans have influenced this by greenhouse gases, methane nitrous oxide.

Climate change is a growing concern in today’s world. We often hear about worldwide temperature rises, and how they are caused by pollution. We are warned about some of the potentially catastrophic consequences of rising temperatures in the future. However, climate change has already begun to occur. (NASA, “Climate Change Effects: The consequences of Climate Change”). Therefore, there is significantly more talk about solutions to climate change. These solutions will reduce the causes of climate change, and also prevent any future damage or destruction caused by climate change. However, we must first understand how climate change is caused, and how it affects the Earth, in order to see how these solutions will help solve it.
