‘Global warming, arguably the greatest hazard we currently face, raises issues of injustice.’ Global warming is the increase of the average surface temperature of the earth. It’s one of the greatest hazards we currently face, because it creates hydro-meteorological hazards, which are hazards which happen because of the weather so they are hazards like floods and droughts. This means global warming is a big effect on what happens on the earth. Injustice means something isn’t fair. Global warming

Cammayo ___________, __ 2013 1PHL1 Global warming or the high averages of global temperatures are caused by natural as well as human induced reasons. Though many people do not believe that global warming exists, evidences are coming up from all parts of the world supporting the occurrence of global warming. Many people are conveniently ignoring the warning signs produced by the earth; the important evidence of global warming is the temperatures itself. The average temperature across

(2) 13 October 2009 Global Warming The Earth's climate is constantly changing over time. Many climatologists believe that the temperature of the Earth slowly fluctuates over time. In fact, several scientists estimate that between 15,000 and 30,000 years ago the Earth was covered by large sheets of ice. This period of time was known as the Ice Age. As the temperature of the Earth began to rise 7,000 years ago, the Ice Age came to an end. The first theory of global warming came in 1824 when French

Is Global Warming Skepticism Just Smoke and Mirrors? Dependence of Man on the Environment Greenhouse warming has always been a talk of the future and the talk of skeptics, well it is happening now. Representatives from countries all over the world will meet in July, 2011 to discuss slowing down global warming by setting the limits on the countries' greenhouse gases emissions, which include the emissions of carbon dioxide the industries, machines, and cars produced. (Reis, 2011). Despite of the

you opened the car door, you must have felt currents of hot air blowing past you. The moment you sat down, you might have felt as if your car was burning the heat! This is a small, yet effective example of a process called the GREENHOUSE EFFECT. This effect involves a certain body of matter, be it a car, or a green house in which plants are grown, or the earth itself GRIPPING heat or radiation from another body, in our case – the sun. In case of the car, the glass enables the assimilation of

Factors Greenhouse Gases The increase in greenhouse gases caused by human activity is often cited as one of the major causes of global warming. These greenhouse gases reabsorb heat reflected from the Earth's surface, thus trapping the heat in our atmosphere. This natural process is essential for life on Earth because it plays an important role in regulating the Earth's temperature. However, over the last several hundred years, humans have been artificially increasing the concentration of these
