Global Climate Destabilization What comes to mind when you think of death? Or what are some of the possible ways that large groups of people may die from? Have you ever thought of being killed through a way that you wouldn’t have died otherwise such as cancer, famine, storms, floods, droughts or epidemics? And the list goes on and on. Well, what if all these probabilities could be part of what global warming can do. Terrifying is in it? As the earth’s population multiply and human activities

Writing Draft 2 3/3/2015 Global Warming Today, the degree of temperature is growing higher and higher in the world. The South Pole and North Pole are melting rapidly. "In 50 years, polar bears and penguins will completely extincted" Andrew Derocher who is scientist pointed it out. Also, global warming brings many problem to the earth, such as natural disaters. Scientists estimaed and guessed that the season of Fall and Winter will be disappeared after 40 years. Global warming has become a serious problem

2011). At the rate of oil being used it is unable to replace itself in the natural process. Not only is there so much oil that can be used, but eliminating oil would have positive impact on our planet. Emissions from our vehicles have caused global warming which in return has decreased the amount of fresh water available for survival. Alternatives for replacing oil also come with a price. For example: take into consideration the Honda Accord hybrid car (one of many hybrids available to the public)

of the most critical global challenges of our times. Recent events have emphatically demonstrated our growing vulnerability to climate change. Climate change impacts will range from affecting agriculture - further endangering food security - to sea-level rise and the accelerated erosion of coastal zones, increasing intensity of natural disasters, species extinction, and the spread of vector-borne diseases. [1] This issue is of immense importance for every global citizen. That is why

Problem | How it is caused | Problems it creates | Global Warming | Global warming is caused when greenhouse gases get released from animals and our everyday needs and jobs (like car emissions and hair spray). Some of the gases get trapped in the atmosphere and act as a blanket, trapping heat and warmth in the planet. The rest of the gases get through the ozone layer which then won’t cause any more damage to the ozone layer and cause won’t global warming to get even worse. When we burn fossil fuels like

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

Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans since the late 19th century and its projected continuation. Since the early 20th century, Earth's mean surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C (1.4 °F), with about two-thirds of the increase occurring since 1980.[2] Warming of the climate system is unequivocal, and scientists are more than 90% certain that it is primarily caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases produced by human activities

ticking time bomb waiting to explode if nothing changes over the millennium. In a situation involving global warming, global climate change has already had observable effects on the environment. Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up earlier, plant and animal ranges have shifted and trees are flowering sooner. The earth maintains a habitable temperature due to the Greenhouse effect, which allows heat from the sun to penetrate our atmosphere, without it, the earth would be a cold
