biggest issues is the problem of global warming, in which the temperature of Earth is rising quickly than ever before, and it is affecting every aspect of life on this planet, from agriculture to animals to humans. It is believed by many, that the advance technology is one of the main reasons why it exists, but the debate never ends on this. Along with that, emission of greenhouse gasses and deforestation are also considered some main reasons for its cause. . Global warming is not just a scientific concern

Kyoto Protocol and Global Warming Evaluation Lisa Kyser University of Phoenix Environmental Economics ECO/370 Neal Johnson August 15, 2011 Abstract Global climate change and global warming are subjects that people either believe is happening or believe is a hoax. The fact that the Earth’s average temperature has risen, suggests that humans have influenced the environment enough to cause changes in the temperature. Global climate change and global warming are being affected by people and

The debate over rising sea levels relates directly to the ongoing controversy surrounding the concept of global warming. Rising sea level behavior has been recognized as an important indicator of changing climate norms, this fact alone raises the stakes for both sides of the debate dramatically. Skeptical arguments center on inaccuracies in measurements and the unreliability of current tracking methods. Sea levels rise and fall or ‘bounce’ from year to year, making it possible to pick and choose

the subject of climate change began in the early 19th century when ice ages and other natural changes in paleoclimate were first suspected and the natural greenhouse effect was first identified (Wikipedia 2014, May 5). This probably instigated the debate by scientists that humans, our lifestyle, played a significant role in climate change. Over the years, the topic of climate change began to mutate into different ideas, viewpoints and theories. In the 1970s, an increase in terminologies defining

Over many years, there have been debates about whether the economy is affected by pollution. There are many different sides of the debate, but two compelling sides that turn different ways could answer the question. Some stating that the economy is directly affected by these gasses while others say that by emitting gases, the economy would improve. This essay will evaluate the outcomes of pollution and determine to what extent does pollution affect the United States economy? Pollution is a huge problem
