Annotated Bibliography: Global Climate Change This is an annotated bibliography for research on the causes of global climate change. I am researching on human activities that are responsible for global climate change. Watson, Robert T. ‘’Human Activity Causes Global Warming’’ Global Warming. Ed. James Haley. San Diego: Greenhaven press, 2002 Opposing Viewpoints in Context.Web.3 Aug.2015. Global climate changes, including episodes of global cooling and warming, have occurred many times…
being the presidential election season the talk of global warming, also known as climate change has come up in conversation more. But should it be associated with whether you are republican or democrat? Global warming should not be rather you “believe” in because it is a stated fact. Many individuals do not know the correct definition and what global warming should mean to them. The definition by the Oxford Dictionary declares that global warming is a gradual increase in the overall temperature…
to global warming. These headlines range anywhere from a glacier melting to the rise in sea levels throughout the earth. These problems as well as many more throughout our world are all caused by global warming. The global warnings definition is as follows, an increase in the earth 's average atmospheric temperature that causes corresponding changes in climate and that may…
Speech Specific Purpose: Awareness of the threat of global warming Introduction: I. In the words of Leonardo DiCaprio after receiving his Oscar, “Climate change is real. It is happening right now. It is the most urgent threat facing our entire species, and we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating.” II. While many of us have heard about global warming, we do not view it significantly important as we all should. Global warming is defined as the increase in Earth’s average…
Global Warming If you ever wanted to see polar bears in the wild, your time is running out. Global warming is causing polar bears, and many other species to go extinct. Global warming, also known as climate change, is the rising of the Earth’s temperature due to greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide, getting trapped in the atmosphere. When the gases can not leave the atmosphere, they absorb radiation and sunlight from the sun and make the atmosphere warmer. Global warming is…
Global warming is part of the Earth’s natural processes. Just as there have been periods global cooling and periods of global temperature stability. Though these processes are natural and are given to the ebb and flow of the Earth’s rotation, precision, and periodic catastrophic events humankind’s industrial, scientific, and population explosions over the last centuries have had a marked effect on the Earth and how it is understood. As it stands, there are two major trains of thought about…
Climate Change Todd Harding; Source B Nuccitelli, Dana. "Survey Finds 97% of Climate Science Papers Agree Warming Is Man- made." Theguardian. Theguardian, 16 May 2013. Web. 21 Jan. 2016. Synopsis In the article Nuccitelli and her team agreed upon definitions of categories to put the papers in: explicit or implicit endorsement of human caused global warming, no opinion, and implicit or explicit rejection or minimization of the human influence, and began the long process of rating over…
Causes of Global warming and Countermeasures Dorothy Sara A24-17 201730221233 A24-9 201730221158 Writing for Academic Purposes Professor Osborne South China University of Technology Guangzhou, Guangdong 12 December 2017 Nigeria is often referred to as the "Giant of Africa", owing to its large population and economy. But it is estimated that a sea level rise of just 200 mm could make 740,000 people in Nigeria homeless. What’s worse, according to the…
phenomena, he emphasizes that "There is an unprecedented residual warming in the late 20th century that matches the warming predicted by GHG forcing. The temperature estimates for 2100 also exceed the most comprehensive estimates (50) of global temperature change during the last interglacial (~120,000 to 130,000 years ago)--the warmest interval in the past 400,000 years." This quote shows the rapid and severe warming of the Earth’s global temperature. As we have seen before, we have proved…
Climate Change In the modern world, humans have made great developments and these advanced development’s contribution in our lives is considerable. On the other hand, the anthropogenic activities by the means of using these advanced technologies has a great effect on the atmosphere of the world. The human activities are the major cause of climate change in the world, which is destroying this planet and causing natural disasters. According to Leslie Allen in the article “Will Tuvalu Disappear…
