Janeiro in 1992(Qtd. Harf p. 141). Global warming is the unusual rapid increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere and is responsible for changes in global climate patterns. It occurs when greenhouse gasses including carbon dioxide, methane, black carbon, and other toxic gasses trap the heat and light from the sun in the earth's atmosphere, which increase the temperature. Some scientists agree that human consumption of the earth's natural resources and activities over the years had

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, they define climate change as the change in global climate patterns that are increasingly apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels. The evidence of climate change has become more apparent and has increased its affects throughout the years and cannot go unnoticed any longer. This controversial issue is very important to take a stand

plants – and the hopes they embody – are destroyed. Besides, in rainforests are other important plants such as quinine, which acts against, malaria and armadillo that is helping us find a cure for leprosy. - Rainforests influence the carbon cycle. Green plants take up carbon dioxide, which they convert to sugars by means of photosynthesis, a process during which oxygen is realized into the air. In other words, rainforest are lungs of our world. -

for many years before it was finally recognized as a global issue that must be dealt with immediately. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) climate change occurs due to the large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions that throw off the balance of Earth’s natural carbon cycle. The human activity of combusting fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, and oil) for electricity and energy is the main source of CO2 emissions in the United States. Too much CO2 in the Earth’s atmosphere can become

worldwide climate changes Even though it is an ongoing debate, it is proved by the scientists that the planet is warming. Topic Sentence 1- causes Scientists have spent decades figuring out what is causing global warming. They've looked at the natural cycles and events that are known to influence climate. But the amount and pattern of warming that's been measured can't be explained by these factors alone.One of the first things scientists learned is that there are several greenhouse gases responsible
