...Global Warming There is no denying fact that Global Warming is a major issue in post modern society. Global Warming is the increase of Earth's average surface temperature due to effect of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels or from deforestation, which trap heat that would otherwise escape from Earth. In this essay the reason and solutions will be discussed before coming to any conclusion. First and Foremost reason of this issue is the Developments of human civilization. Human invents many things to live his life better and comfortable. For that human bread use the fossil fuel for their transportation, factories and do deforestation for their urbanization. Man done many nuclear experiments for their researches. All these things create green house effect. Actually green house effect is caused by the role played, green house gasses such as Carbon dioxide, Methane and Nitrous oxide, these are major cause of Global Warming. On the other hand, we can say that, may be this is a major problem of the present era, but it does not mean that it is not curable thing. We should use natural resource of energy for transportation, factories and for other needs. The sources of natural energy are Solar Energy, Bio-Fuel, and Wind’s Power. For example Sun is the major source of free and eco-friendly energy and we are not using it for our development. It may reduce our problem of pollution. In addition we could use public...

...he green movement is becoming more and more popular in the past few years. Noticeable rising temperatures have sparked awareness in people that waste is bad and could be in fact destroying the Earth which is out home and very much needed to continue living. Lately, it has become more popular to recycle, but better yet, it is more popular to use “green” products. Companies have started to use this newfound interest in the environment as a way to change their product to become better for the world. For example, water bottles now use less plastic than before to be more “green”, hybrid cars are designed to work more on electricity instead of gas so less fumes are emitted. While these products could be helpful with cutting down on the damage we humans put on the Earth with the amount of pollution caused daily, the green movement has initiated some deceptive advertising; big surprise there. Greenwashing, or “green sheen” is “a form of spin in which green PR or green marketing is deceptively used to promote the perception that an organization’s aim and policies are environmentally friendly.” It is a manipulative form of advertisement to make buyers believe a company’s objective is different from reality and it is becoming more and more popular. The term started in 1986 with an environmentalist named Jay Westervelt who wrote an essay about hotels that practice making cards in hotel rooms encouraging customers to be environmentally friendly and reuse towels. He then noted that these institutions...

As members of Congress, we have heard and learned new and different facts about the process of Earth. Some causes and effects of global warming are easy to understand, with substantial evidence, yet there are still unanswered questions and reasoning as to why global warming is occurring. This essay is to outline the background of global warming and to display opposing viewpoints. Since there is not enough evidential research to connect global warming with natural factors, human activity, and its impacts, we might take advantage of its beneficial gain to our environment, economic, and social system. The facts and fictions of global warming will convince members of Congress that there are opposing viewpoints to global warming and its effects. According to the Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change, global warming is the increase of Earth’s average temperature. “The Intergovernmental Panel...

...measures. This essence of this essay is to describe what global warming is, firstly by pin pointing different definitions of global warming, articulating its causes and effects and further analyze measures to curb global warming. Secondly the essay will demonstrate further on how the knowledge of demography contributes to the understanding of global warming by giving relevant examples across the globe. Finally, the essay will draw a conclusion depending on the context. Global warming is the increase in the temperature of the earth’s atmosphere caused by the greenhouse effect. Kapargam, (1999:218); defined global warming as the condition that is caused by the accumulation of greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere that causes a slow but sustained increase in the global average temperature over a long period of time. According to www.WeatherQuestions.com; global warming is the gradual warming of global-average temperatures due to the slowly increasing concentrations of man-made atmospheric greenhouse gases, primarily carbon dioxide. But global warming can alternatively refer to simply the observation of warming, without implying the cause(s) of that warming. www.ehow.com defined global warming as; when the earth heats up (the temperature rises). It happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere, which increases the temperature. This is called the greenhouse effect,...

...Ancient Art AIU Online: HUMA205 Abstract This is an essay that will analyze two important works of ancient art. They will be analyzed in terms of their form, subject matter and content. It will explain how these two art works fit into the time period they were made. Using the terminology and concepts of evaluating art, this paper will compare the two pieces of art in consideration with their style, symbolism and meaning of them. The first work of ancient art chosen for this assignment is The House with the Cracked Walls by Paul Cézanne (1839–1906). It was painted between the years of 1892 and 1894 with oil on a canvas. It is a painting of a house scenario surrounded by trees, rocks and grass. The house looks abandoned or not lived in. Some will say that it is a romantic scenery of solitude and intensity. It is a painting of deep imagination and creativity: the sky is intense and empty, the ground is unstable and steep, the horizon is irregular, and the trees seem agitated as well as the rising appearance of the ground. The balance of the painting starts with the cracked house because this effect leads down to the rocks, the ground and the lines and cracks on the trees. The shadows and dark colors create balance as well: earthly colors of greens, greys, tans, blues and browns. The vertical shape of the entire painting gives it a pressed together look with the ground rising up to the house and trees that are rising up to the sky. Symbolism, in my opinion, is greatly used...

Trent Richens (000331538) English Composition I (TBP1) Task 3 – Cause and Effect Essay 11/2/13 Western Governors University Banking regulations limit lending for specific modes of affordable and green housing. Banking regulations limit lending to specific types of housing, these regulations limit the ability to construct affordable and, greener types of construction, causing negative effects on the free market. An acceptable level of comfort in for life requires a small number of necessities: housing, sanitary facilities, education, employment, and food and water. Without these, life becomes miserable in a very short amount of time. For a vast amount of people around the world, home ownership is a dream, an ambition for life, that thing we’ve wanted since being a child. The security of having something that you can call your own and do what you want with, when you want with it appeals to most people. For many this dream will never become a reality, and for many others even once having it doesn’t mean they can keep it. The problem is todays housing is just not affordable. With all of the other demands that expense a person’s income it’s difficult to make this dream a reality. Financial policy drives the lack of affordable housing. Due primarily to the types of construction that can are fundable through the current financial system of lending the options are limited to less...

...The Abstract. Green Washing is “an environmental claim which is unsubstantiated (a fib) or irrelevant (a distraction). Found in advertising, PR or on packaging, and made about people, organizations and products. to preserve and expand their markets by posing as friends of the environment and leaders in the struggle to eradicate poverty the purpose of green washing is to preserve and expand their markets by posing as friends of the environment and leaders in the struggle to eradicate poverty. The history of green washing begins with research of environmentalist Jay Westerveld in 1986, in an essay regarding the hotel industry’s practice of placing green placards in each room, promoting reuse of guest-towels, ostensibly to “save the environment. Energy sector represents “biomass, coal, electricity, geothermal energy, hydrogen, hydropower, natural gas, nuclear power, petroleum, solar power, and power wind”, companies involved in generating energy. In this research paper, main focus is analyzing major energy industry components such as Petroleum industry, Nuclear power industry and Coal power industry, in order to explore the related Green Washing phenomenon. As an example for green washing, “Australian Federal Government’s Green Washing Campaign of nuclear power as a “clean” energy source and as the primary solution to reduce Australia’s green house emissions”, analyzed in this research. As an example in coal industry “ the clean coal” campaign recognized and analyzed as...

Film's ability to create the illusion of life and reality makes them an extremely powerful medium. In their essay "Reading and Writing about Movies," Jonathan Silverman and Dean Rader highlight the idea, "that movies use various techniques to manipulate audiences" (322), because "directors employ music, lighting, special effects, and clever editing to help make their movies more powerful"(322). To have a better understanding of the film's theme, we have to watch it critically, reading the meaning between the lines. It is possible to do paying attention...

...humans, ecosystems, cities and energy use, all in varying degrees (Gillard, 2011; Australian Catholic University, 2013b). This essay will describe the climate change issue and explain how it pertains to social justice and the common good. Climate change influences many different stakeholders, including governments, skeptics, the media, developing countries and future generations (ACU, 2013b). This essay will explore three of those perspectives being, developing countries, economists and Christians. It will identify the stakeholders, analyse their perspective highlighting their viewpoint on change. This viewpoint will be examined in terms of the common good and the principles of human flourishing and conclude discussing how the common good may best be served. Climate change is the change in the earth’s climate over many years. This change includes global warming, measured by the rise in the earth’s temperature (ACU, 2013b). For the purpose of this essay it is assumed that global warming results from human production of excess green house gases including carbon dioxide emissions (Gore, 2006). These gases form a layer in the earth’s atmosphere causing the sun’s rays to be reflected back down to earth and this called the Green House Effect further exacerbated by burning fossil fuels, deforestation and altering natural landscapes (ACU, 2013b). The effects of Global Warming are projected to rise over the next 50-100 years causing droughts, crop failures and imbalances in the ecosystem...

...February 4, 2013 POLI 2300 – Winter Term Essay Proposal – Topic no. 10 The Advancement of Green Politics Within Government: The Cases of Germany and Great Britain Since their formative years, Green parties have seen increasing success in advancing environmental interests in European politics. They key factor in determining a Green party’s capacity to implement its policy aims is the context of the political system in which it operates. This is reflected in the relative electoral success of the German Greens, Alliance ’90/The Greens, as compared with the difficulties faced by the British Greens. Many analysts consider the German Greens “the strongest example of the impact of Green politics on Western European political systems” due to its impact within German government (Burchell, 2002, p. 52). The Green Party in the United Kingdom is considered a minor party—defined as “a party with no elected seats in Parliament” (Birch, 2009, p. 53). This represents the greatest challenge to the British Greens’ political efficacy. The German and British Green parties were established in extremely different political climates, and they gained different levels of influence within government as a result. The emergence of the German Greens in the twentieth century coincided with the rise of new social movement protests during the 1960s 1970s. This movement brought about a heightened awareness of social and environmental problems among new-left student populations, as well as citizen...

Sea level rise is a serious global threat that continued to grow due to greenhouse gas emissions and associated with the global warming. In context, Solomon Islands like most of the South Pacific countries had been ignorant about the issue of the increased concentration of greenhouse gases and its effects until recently. And as such, comprehensive understanding of sea level rise and climate change it real associated with increasing green house gases. There is still no local study carried out in the Solomon Islands yet on the local impacts of climate change and sea level rise. Despite these limitations, it is still possible to make general projections based...
