GLOBAL WARMING Global warming, also called climate change, has become a topic of concern over the past decade. Climate has changed drastically over the past decade, “From 2001 through Feb, 2011 the atmospheric carbon dioxide increased by 22.2% of the total increase from 1800 to 2001” (Pangburn). Although I wasn’t completely aware of global warming and it’s circumstances until recently, I can honestly say that it is a issue to be concerned about. Global Warming is an indisputable

Global Warming I. Introduction This paper is about global warming and the possibility that is due to human actions. In addition, can the human race take action to stop global warming? I do believe that human actions have a definite factor in global warming. In past centuries, humans have influenced global climate change through the emissions of the greenhouse gases. Global warming happens when the temperature rises and the greenhouse gases trap the heat and light from the sun's atmosphere that

Global Warming Effect on the Earth By Tyler wood THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT -The greenhouse effect is something is the needed for humans to live. The greenhouse effect is in the atmosphere and it traps the UV waves and absorbs the energy. The energy that is trapped in the atmosphere is both absorbed and sent back into space. This action heats up the earth and keeps a layer of heat around the earth. The heat that is kept this layer is enough to heat earth during the night because the earth gets cold
