Climate change is a serious problem that will affect all of the inhabitants and systems of Earth. Gaia was previously responsible for maintaining sustainability of the Earth’s systems, however, Gaia is losing its ability to maintain homeostasis because of these severe environmental changes that are taking place. There must be a push to educate people on what the anthropogenic causes of climate change are and how we can prevent them from negatively impacting our environment. People also need to understand

The terms climate change and global warming have caused much confusion. Climate change is the change in global or regional climate patterns. Global warming is the idea that the world is being heated by a few degrees every year brought on by an increase in carbon dioxide levels from the growing use of fossil fuels. Together these two issues have begun to change the habitats as humanity knows them and could devastate the world if allowed to continue. Many studies support the idea of the changing climate

undergoing a cooling, but because of global warming the earth is on a heating trend. Global warming is caused by the Industrial Revolution, increased greenhouse gases, and deforestation and impacts the world by raising temperatures, melting polar ice caps, rising sea levels, and the extinction of species and the harm of humans. Causes of Global Warming Global warming is a growing problem and if it is left alone, it will ruin the Earth. The main cause of global warming is the industrialization

The melting of polar ice caps can be prevented. This is a serious issue. Polar ice caps melting will cause the earth to warm rapidly, because the UV light will not have anything to reflect off of and bounce back to space. Along with global warming, and the melting polar ice caps, the earth will be warmed sufficiently by 2036 if the burning of fossil fuels is not stopped, or even slowed by a small percentage. Polar ice caps are solid land masses with ice covering the whole land mass. The land mass

floods, shortage of food, increase of crops products, costs and diseases. Ever since the Industrial Revolution the temperature has been a roller coster, up and down it goes. Research has showed that the greenhouse affect is rapidly melting the polar ice caps, leading to increasing of the sea levels. Due to the fast melting of the ice, in five years or less the Artic can be ice free, no ice, none! Another result of having the ice melt rapidly, would be the increase of the ocean, this affect us really bad

Melting Ice Caps The Arctic is global warming’s canary in the coal mine. It is a highly sensitive area which is profoundly affected by the changing climate. The average temperature in the Arctic is rising twice as fast as elsewhere in the world (nrdc.org). Because of this, the ice cap is getting thinner, melting away, and rupturing. Here is an example of this; the largest ice block in the Arctic, the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf, had been around for 3000 years before it started cracking in 2000 (nrdc

Introduction In response to the drastic social and economic impacts of the industrial revolution in the United States during the mid 19th century, labor union were created in order to facilitate fair negotiations on the behalf of workers with their employers in regard to work-related difficulties such as pay, working conditions, along with other amenities. Article 23 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a declaration adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 10 December 1948 following

Global warming has been a hot topic worldwide for over a decade. While many believe it is a problem that needs to be tended to immediately, others believe or claim for political reasons that it is just propaganda. Global warming is described by Bodnar as “The increase in temperature around the world caused by gases in the atmosphere.” (Bodnar 7) Many scientists believe that carbon dioxide gases are the main cause of Global Warming. Things such as old factories and cars emit greenhouse gasses into

Basketball Needs to Be Fixed      Professional and college basketball have become very popular in the hearts and minds of many Americans. Millions of dollars a year are spent on apparel, tickets, and television all generated by people's love for basketball. But in the last couple of years, both the National Basketball Association (NBA) and college basketball have lost a substantial amount of their competition and have caught much criticizim for it. At the heart of this

under 900-degree heat is not because it is so close to the sun, but it is trapped under greenhouse gases. Global warming is a serious threat here on earth because it would cause more severe weather, increase the range of deserts, melt the polar ice caps, cause a rise in sea level (which, according to the fossil record, is a major cause of mass extinctions), as well as expand the habitat of deadly tropical diseases. The only scientific opposition to the global warming theory comes from the expected
