Global Warming Persuasive Essay

First of all, the main effect of global warming is the fact that it causes warmer temperatures. While warmer temperatures may seem beneficial and good, the ways the atmosphere is becoming warmer isn’t that great. According to the article, Global warming, it states, “Natural processes on Earth constantly create and destroy greenhouse gases.” “Human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, add an extra seven billion metric tons per year” (“Global Warming”). To explain, what this shows is that nature is already creating greenhouse gasses and people are adding even more to the atmosphere. While people strive on greenhouse gasses for warmth, the amount of greenhouse gasses forming will cause numerous environmental hazards in the future.

Edgar Allan Poe and Shirley Jackson are two authors both known for their work with horror stories. Each author uses their own lives to help craft beautiful macabre stories that readers have enjoyed for years. Although written almost 100 years apart, Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado”, and Jackson’s “The Lottery”, uses similar elements of suspense and character traits to develop their stories, while using different points of view and critical approaches to keep the readers engaged and interested in the stories. Suspense is one of the key elements to both Poe’s and Jackson’s stories.

More than half of the increase in carbon dioxide in the past 100 years is because of human activity. (Burning fossil fuels) In 2010, carbon dioxide levels were higher than they have been in over 650,000 years. The CO2 levels are the cause for the increase of the Earth’s temperature. Greenhouse gases produced by humans will continue to cause climate change in the atmosphere because carbon sinks cannot absorb all of them. Carbon sinks, in 2009, were only absorbing about half of the human produced greenhouse gases, while the other half remained in the atmosphere. According to computer models, increased levels of human produced greenhouse gases will cause global warming and other climate changes. Although the models are not certain of how much warming will occur/how the climate will be affected, they all

The Earth is our home, so why don’t we take care of it and preserve it? Most people think that they can’t make a difference as just one individual in a world of over 7 billion people, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth. Anything from being a vegetarian, which highly reduces the amount of water used and byproduct created when farming animals, to carpooling to school helps combat global warming. By convincing my English class that global warming is an important issue that we are facing today and will face in the future, I hope to get them to take their own initiatives to reduce their footprint on our planet Earth.

Global climate change, something that most people in the world are not taking as seriously as they should. Many people believe that climate change is a phenomenon; a conspiracy theory to engage people into spending more money. When the world became industrialized, we lost our way on protecting our Earth, our only planet. Industrialization is why our environment is in critical condition. Advocating and government officials are necessary for a decrease of Greenhouse Gas emissions into our atmosphere. For our environment to thrive, changes need to happen and they can begin with yourself.

There are numerous debates about the pros and cons of climate change and what are the causes and effects of climate change. There are those who argue that the rising levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases in our environment are as a direct result of human activities. Some activities that are at the top of the list include but are not limited to the burning of fossil fuels, the cutting down of our forest, these activities are causing significant and increasingly severe climate changes which include global warming. Global warming results in a rise in the sea level, longer summers and more severe winters among other issues. Governments worldwide have come to some agreement that climate change affects every sector of life and that

Climate change is the most dangerous threat to the people of this planet, but it is the poorest, most vulnerable people who will experience the harshest consequences. Those located in the developing nations are exponentially more vulnerable than even the least fortunate citizens lucky enough to live in developed countries. It is these people, when faced with their regional climate change effects, which will allow the richest citizens of the world to profit from their misery. The neoliberal model that has emerged has created a system that privatizes the services once provided and funded by the government, and it is this economic model that has given rise to disaster capitalism. It is because of this reason that I believe climate change is denied

In the world we live in, it seems like all of society has clouded judgement on just about everything. You’ll turn on the TV and see people go against all types of logical thought, and that can lead to even your own judgement being shrouded in a cloud of confusion. One topic that leads in this “social confusion” is global warming. While climatologists and many other well-versed people on the matter argue for its reality, many have their hearts set on quite an opposite alternative. Our world is plagued by the fake news brought about by these people, and the only way we can fix this issue is to get past the lies and to focus on the solutions themselves.

Climate change has become a big issue in the past 20 years due to the new technological advances we have made. With this technology we have created comes a great deal of responsibility, we can use this to our benefit along with benefitting our Earth or we can emit more harmful gases into the atmosphere. During the industrial revolution machines were made that could do things 20 strong men couldn’t do, this being said these machines needed fuel. People looked for fuel to work these machines and many found burning coal worked quite well, while it may have ran the machines well at the time it also polluted the air we breathe. The people living back in the 18th and 19th century weren’t affected by this air pollution but instead the people of today

Global Warming will continue to be a monstrous problem to be dealt with, when thinking of the future what needs to be considered is how long can the Earth keep sustaining life with little to no change. Change cannot happen overnight but, with nations working together to fix a common goal it is possible to put in motion a considerable change that will benefit the generations to come. Global warming cannot keep being put off, the risks are to great to ignore anymore, it is everyone’s problem therefore, it takes everyone to make the situation okay. Scientists need to keep raising awareness to get people to jump into action, the quicker the better. Politicians like Al Gore need to be more involved in the truth and facts surrounding climate change

Global warming has been an on-going issue for many decades. Most people would argue that it is a hoax; while others argue it is true. Climate change can cause a domino effect of catastrophes throughout the world. Once it affects one group, then that affected group will affect another, and so on and so forth; like a plague. Global warming is an authentic problem and we need to find more efficient ways to eliminate it, or at least contain it.

During May 2016, School of Visual Art and Design Professors Amanda Wangwright and Mary Robinson led a group of Honors students on a ten day Global Classroom Program to Japan. Professors and students travelled to the historic city of Kyoto and the modern metropolis of Osaka in addition to day trips to the smaller cities of Nara and Uji. While in Japan, the class visited World Heritage Sites and studied firsthand Japanese cultural and religious practices and architecture. Furthermore, the class produced their own art while abroad at a washi papermaking workshop at the Kyoto University of Art and Design and at modern artist Haruka Furusaka's printmaking studio.

Our planet has faced some difficult times being billions of years old. Today, it’s facing an epidemic that has been addressed to the public numerous times in a myriad of ways though has not been taken seriously—Global Warming. Global warming occurs due to the increase in temperature in the atmosphere by human practices by burning fossil fuels and the emission of harmful gases such as carbon monoxide. To help combat against global warming we have many options to resort to for clean energy sources such as water and wind energy. However, there is one energy source in particular that is infinite in abundance for the entire planet to live off of; solar energy. With the constant use of fossil fuels in play with no strategic approach into transitioning to a more renewable source of clean energy such as solar energy, we will continue to kill the life that thrives our home and our home itself. There needs to be a higher ratio of solar energy industry to offset the use of fossil fuels to help combat global warming. Using the power harnessed from the sun doesn’t pollute—has no greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global warming, solar energy can create millions of jobs and increasing our economy offsetting the by coal industry funds, and lastly promoting more uses of solar energy could potentially cause a snowball effect—eventually everyone will want to hop on the trend that boosts the economy!

Look outside, you can see the beautiful world we live in; you can hear children playing, birds chirping, and feeling of the cool breeze hitting your skin. The smell of fresh-cut grass runs its way through your nostril. Lastly, you close your eyes and embrace the world; then you take a deep breath and exhale. That’s a beautiful scene, right? However, today, due to global warming we will not able to experience that anymore. Global warming is a real issue today because of the amount of pollution we create, the future effects it will cause and becoming the uproar in political debates.

Global warming comes down to the number of people who enjoy things, like the winter season, a nice home cooked meal, and people who know someone suffering because of an illness. We all have something in common which is in the hands of climate change. Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but all of those things are gone if we continue on treating the planet in the fashion that we are.  It’s time to stop throwing Global Warming to the side like a pair of dirty socks.  It is here, and it is not going away.  I consider it to be one of the most monumental issues of our time and most people are still in denial or inactive in making adjustments for a change.  We all live on this planet, let's start treating it like we do, because what we put in, is what we are going to get back.
