The Problem Of Global Warming

Both Al Gore and Daniel Botkin have different arguments on global warming. They are both think very similar on the same topic. Because one part of the argument is serious, and the other one is not so much. But, the point is that both of their stories are pointing out to their views on this issue. But, according to Webster Dictionary, Global Warming is when the increase in the world’s temperature that is to believe to increase by carbon dioxide. Both of the authors have a different view on this topic they have a different position, logic, and facts on what Global warming really is.

In 2006, former senator Al Gore created an academy award winning documentary on global warming entitled “An Inconvenient Truth” . The movie earned several awards including an academy award for best documentary and gore later received a noble peace prize. The movie discussed several different topics of great concern to global warming; such as permafrost, climbs in temperature, extinction of species, drought, and fatigue to name a few. Four writers in five different articles discussed the three topics of greenhouse gases, climate change, and causes of global warming. These writers are writer and scholar Bill McKibben in “Think Again: Climate Change” and “How Close to catastrophe”; William J. Broad, writer for the New York Times in “From a Rapt audience, a call to cool the hype”; writer for the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Kevin O’Brien, in “Global Warming? I won’t be losing any sleep over it”; and Alan Zarembo, staff writer for the the Los Angeles Times, in “Game over on global warming?” All though the articles explain some different topics from one another, only one of them disagree with gore on the causes for global warming being humans, they all agree that there will be impacts to the environment, and all of them believe that greenhouse gases are one of the primary causes for global warming.

Recently all news and media has been revolving around politics, Donald Trump, Hilary Clinton, and the Kardashian’s. The United States has lost sight of the bigger picture and has put aside the state of our planet in order to focus on immediate matters. This is understandable, but once we choose a president and once one event is over, the next one comes into the spotlight and leaves no room for people to worry about our planet.

Even though some people believe that there is no such thing as global warming, there has been significant evidence that the Earth is warming. Most scientists believe that the main cause of global warming is human influence. The burning of fossil fuels and the use of fertilizers are the main contributors to the heating of the Earth. Many problems occur as a result of the climate changing. As the climate changes, some animals may become extinct, there is a rise in sea levels, and there are stronger storms. There are many ways to counteract the problems of global warming. Laws have been created to help lessen the impacts of global warming on the environment. There are also many steps that individuals can

Who could turn or live back 50 decades ago without technologic advances, mass media invention and the most important pure air? Sometimes I spend time with my grandmother who lives in the interior of the island of Puerto Rico and I enjoy what she tells me her stories about her youth and the environment where she was surrounded. Suddenly she expresses me how she misses living in those times, when she used to go to the rivers to pass the day in the water or in simple a fun water puddle, enjoying the nature.

The issue of global warming should be on the list of our top priorities. Studies show that the average of global temperatures have risen since the Industrial Revolution began. Since the Industrial Revolution, human emissions has quadrupled the frequency of certain heat extremes and many scientists have warned that a failure to bring greenhouse gases under control could eventually lead to a 62-fold increase in extreme heat blasts (Gillis Justin A17). Most of the increase is due to human activities, especially the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation. These activities contribute to a build-up in carbon dioxide and other gases in Earth’s atmosphere. The Earth’s atmosphere is made of gases like nitrogen, carbon dioxide and oxygen. These gases act as a blanket that covers and gives us warmth, but once these gases such as carbon dioxide absorbs heat, but does not release it back into space in which causes the increase in global temperature. This is called the greenhouse effect because it only traps heat but does not release it.

Recently, the issue about climate change has been on and off the news headlines. The debate whether if global warming is real or hoax is gradually getting more attention to the public. Global warming is defined as phenomenon that causes global average temperature to rise in a steady rate.While many people speculate that global warming is a temporary issue that won’t be a serious issue after a while, scientific data point out that it could be a big threat to the world and humans are mostly responsible for it. For example since the beginning of the industrial revolution age,many big businesses have indiscriminately exploited the natural resources for their profit. The world needs to acknowledge that global warming

Global warming is no longer just a prediction it is actually happening. It is undisputed that the average temperature at the surface of Earth has increased over the past century by 1 degree Fahrenheit, with both the air and the oceans warming. Since 1880, when people in many locations first began to keep temperature records, the 25 warmest years have all occurred within the last 28 years. The problem is that if we keep on hurting our own environment and ecosystems we are just going to destroy ourselves sooner or later. If we don’t start to change the way we are doing things around the United States with our factories, the way we dispose of things, or the way we get affected by the pollution, we will see some major issues in the future. This paper will examine the problem of Global Warming in the United States. The paper will first discuss how global warming works, and why it is damaging not only our lives but the lives of the animals around the United States and other major issues. It will also address the consequences for global warming for such a long time of a period. Next the paper discusses three environmental solutions to the problem of global warming: wildlife affects, glaciers and sea levels, the weather patterns. The paper will first explain each global warming solution. Then it will analyze the pros and cons, and potential strengths and weakness of each solution. Last this paper will offer some personal observations of the

Global warming and the environment are two topics that have become more and more relevant in today’s discussions. With the help of political figures such as Al Gore and the outreach of charities for help such as the World Wildlife Fund, American citizens have become more aware of their impact on the environment and the effects they have on the Earth. Not only is the United States concerned with these changes, countries such as England, Australia and Canada are joining in on trying to limit the causes. Global warming is an international phenomenon that was brought on by humans, has caused environmental and economic changes, and has spurred controversy between people and nations.

“It’s a well-kept secret, but 95 per cent of the climate models we are told prove the link between human CO2 emissions and catastrophic global warming have been found, after nearly two decades of temperature stasis, to be in error,” writes Maurice Newman, chief business advisor to Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott (Dunn). With this bold declaration, Australia thrust itself onto the international stage where it was widely criticized and condemned by the United Nations and environmental supporters worldwide. Already behind the world in climate change legislation, Australia quickly became the face of global warming denial.

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.

With the increasingly serious problem of global warming, Australia’s climate has warmed since 1950. ("State of the Climate 2014: Bureau of Meteorology", 2016) Compared with air conditioners which required for high cost, electricity expense and health hazard (under an enclosed environment, there has poor air circulation and air quality which would have negative effect for human body. Moreover, without appropriate maintenance, some particulate matter such as bacterial, pesticides and allergens can enter houses from outside environment which will cause health problems.) (McCarthy, Ludwig, Brown, Vaughn, & Roberts, 2013)

Human activities have been identified as the most significant cause of recent climate change; it is often referred to ‘Global Warming’. The main cause of global warming is emission of greenhouse gases .The main source of energy today - coal, gases and oil produce greenhouse gases, in particular carbon dioxide. Nuclear energy can reduce the dependence on fossil fuels. It is used to generate electric power but unlike fossil fuels it does not emit greenhouse gases. Therefore, the best possible solution to limit the emission of greenhouse gases and to control change in climate .The major reasons to challenge the above thesis are reliability and efficiency of nuclear power, low greenhouse gas emissions and low cost electricity production from nuclear energy.

Ever since the twenty-first century, the injury and menace posed by global climate change to human being has long been acknowledged by public. In the face of global warming, a series of resulting problems inflict a serious threat on the nature environment, which is the material base of the human being depending on. Therefore, climate change is no longer just a discipline problem but also has gradually become a major social problem, which has draw a common concern for us humans. During this, the resulting problems coming with the climate change has been transforming from oneness to diversification, from being known to being unknown. Various new phenomena lead to the change to human survival state. Most importantly, disaster in different
