Global Warming: Cause and Mitigation Tyler Turner Strayer Introduction to Physical Science SCI 110 Prof. Amanda Slaughter June 5, 2016 Global Warming: Cause and Mitigation In this paper I will be discussing different causes and effects of global warming. First we will look at comparing and contrasting natural versus anthropogenic climate changes and include examples of each type. We will then discuss which position I will take in wither global warming exists or not. After that we will I

others blame clime change on the government.

Global Warming Introduction Global warming can leads to various problems such as the rise of the Earth temperature, rise of water level and more killer storms. Body A. one of the problem is the rise of the earth temperature. 1.Carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuels would cause global temperatures to rise by trapping excess heat in the earth’s atmosphere. a. Arrhenius (1896) understood that the earth’s climate is heated by a process known as the Greenhouse

thinning, global warming etc. Human impact is a serious threat to ecosystem and food chain of Antarctica. In the last few decades, various marine species of Antarctic ecosystem have been brought close to extinction because of human activities in various forms such as pollution from sewage and other contaminants, overfishing and other mixed activities and interference like global climate change caused by human emission of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, ozone layer depletion, global warming

solutions for energy conservation. This research will also provide a sustainability plan of its own to deliver to the reader. The sustainability plan will include benefits and challenges of the plan as well as the required government, societal, and global support. In many forms, energy is probably one of the world's greatest inventions since the beginning of time. Man made energy saves humans time by creating heat, light, speedy transportation, and the use of equipment i.e.:(computers, microwaves

thousands of pounds. All life forms these and all those in between. We all share this planet although we don’t all have quite as devastating effect as humans have. The sad fact is that our planet is actually in very serious trouble. With the hole in the Ozone layer the very inconsistency of the weather. The oceans are warming which will have a devastating effect on every living thing, this is also causing the glaciers to melt which in turn makes the water levels to rise. The severity of the storms

Global WarmingGLOBAL WARMING: AN ESSAY. E ven among my small circle of friends, there seem to be polarized beliefs about global warming, or climate change. I sampled six months of columns and editorials in the Wall Street Journal and discovered that the universal angle of the full sample was to argue about how expensive this or that action to confront climate change might be and to imply that there was nothing profound here to justify such an expense. (I randomly looked up and read about twelve

importance of climate change in global warming, which was always debatable and now has become more controversial. With many claiming that it is beneficial, while others reject this notion. The substantial influence of global warming over the environment has sparked the controversy over the potential impact of the trend in recent times. In my opinion latter proposition appears to be more rational. This essay will further elaborate both positive and negative effects of global warming and thus lead to the logical
