Causes Of Global Warming

about Venus and want to know if carbon dioxide in the atmosphere causes warming, the answer is a very simple yes. Global Warming is only controversial because it affects economic interests. I'm not sure what you mean by how is does so: are you looking for a scientific explanation about how global warming gases let sunlight through the atmosphere but stop reflected light (heat) from bouncing back to outer space? Or how will warming be devastating: hurricanes, crop failures, species extinctions,

want to know why are you so implicated on the question of global warming? » Al Gore: « Good question, since I lost against my rival in 2000, I decided to focus on a main point to me, namely the problem of global warming.

climate change is a long modification of the climate over many millenniums. For examples 20 000 years ago all of Northern Europe was covered by a thick sleep of ice. In Europe it was 15 degrees colder than now but the average it was 5 degrees. Today, computers can measure the climate’s variation, that’s to say observe currents, atmosphere, wind, clouds, temperature, greenhouse effects… Thanks to these calculations, scientists can compare the behave of the climate. Thus, regarding the actual

melting of the ice floe The ice floe is an expanse of frozen sea. While 1979-2000, the ice floe extends on average 15.7 millions square kilometres. About a half of it will melt in the summer before the global warming. Now, in 2011, there’s more than one million square kilometres less (in winter). In summer 2007, there was only 4.13 millions square kilometres. The Global Warming is stronger in polar zones than in the rest of the world, so it touches more the ice floe. The size of the melting of the

is the world of land, sea and air that you live in. Since the beginning of the 20th century, we seem to hear of other problems affecting the environnement: pollution, acid rain, climate changes, the destruction of rainforests and other wild habitats, the decline and extinction of thousand of species of animals and planets. Human activities have a strong impact. II.Global warming: Global warming is the observed and projected increases in the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere

Michael Shellenberger, authors of "Break Through: Why We Can't Leave Saving the Planet to Environmentalists," say that a few years ago, being green "moved beyond politics." Gestures -- bringing reusable grocery bags to the store, purchasing a $4 heirloom tomato, inflating tires, weatherizing windows -- "gained fresh urgency" and "were suddenly infused with grand significance." Green consumption became "positional consumption" that identified the consumer as a member of a moral and intellectual elite

are in the heart of big debates. An example of that is the current conference in Copenhagen, Denmark, and this is what people consider as the biggest and most important environmental discussion there has ever been. The main factor for the increase of climate change is the Greenhouse effect which has a direct impact on the human’s life. The Greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon which leads to a warming of the planet (Oxford dictionary). As a consequence, the increase of global temperatures entails
