of the most fervently debated and scientifically challenging topics of the 21st century. According to NASA, as early as 1904, Swedish scientist, Svante Arrhenius, was among the “first persons acknowledged to investigate the effects of doubling atmospheric carbon dioxide and how this would affect the global climate”. (1) As technology and scientific studies progressed throughout the 1900’s and into the 21st century, the effect of human civilizations on climate change was thrust into public spotlight

measuring spot as it is far from any human activities, and it is high in altitude. The air sample is less likely to be affected by nearby human activities and can reflect the true value of the atmospheric CO2 concentration. These measurements is usually for plotting the Keeling curve with respect to the atmospheric temperature.

The sign that supports the human cause is abundant and powerful, some say it is normal for the planet to undergo such changes in atmospheric temperature. If we, as humans, do not change the way we use resources, our planet will be doomed for the future. Deforestation is a major topic in today’s era. Man has cut

Global Warming General Chemistry I Bret Lynn For millions of years the changes in Earth’s climate have been driven by forces of nature. Although, for the last century and a half, Earth’s average temperature has been rising faster than any time in the past 10 thousand years. “We’re on a track to 700 parts-per-million of carbon dioxide on the planet, we haven’t seen that for 50 million years”(1). The signs are everywhere: droughts in the American southwest, rising seas in Louisiana, tropical

1 Atmospheric Pollution and Global Warming: A Real Problem 2 Atmospheric pollution is becoming a bigger and more serious problem as the years go by. What was once thought to be a myth, has now become a threat to species all over the world. The thought of global warming is still laughed at today, but there is enough evidence to prove that it is not a joking matter. In the last one-hundred years, the Earth's temperature has risen by 1.4 degrees farenheit. It is expected to rise by 2
