Conservatives Don’t Believe The Science of Global Warming
While many of our country’s liberal politicians are trying to pass legislation to prevent further global warming, they are facing harsh criticisms from the conservative media. Many Fox News personalities as well as radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh and several conservative internet blogs have claimed that the recent north east snow storm is proof that global warming is a myth. Global warming is a term that many suggest was made popular by former Vice President Al Gore. In 2006 David Guggenheim directed a film titled “Inconvenient Truth” which was a informative film about Al Gore’s message of man’s responsibility for global warming. Many advocates say that the proper term would be “climate change”. Global warming suggests that through man made pollution, we are damaging the planet’s ozone layer, increasing the sun’s affect on planet earth. Global warming has many supporters, including thousands of scientists who claim to have proven that the issue is real and should not be ignored. Recent studies have shown that the temperatures of 2009 were among the top warmest temperatures since satellites started keeping records. A similar study also suggested that the previous decade, 2000-2009, was the warmest decade in almost 2000 years. Global warming … Continue reading
Global Warming Statistics Demand Action
Global warming is one of the most important issues we face as a nation. We cannot let critics of this issue attempt to convince people that it does not exist simply by just saying so. Critics of the existence of climate change seem to be ignoring global warming facts. For years global warming statistics suggest that man is responsible for the majority of why our world is facing serious climate change. There are global warming myths and there are global warming facts. The global warming facts indicate that last year was one of the warmest years since we started keeping records. There are global warming facts that prove that the last ten years was one of the warmest ten year period in thousands of years. Scientists have produced global warming statistics that break down the percentages of each type of pollution and their affect on global warming. These global warming statistics suggest that the biggest producer of greenhouse gas are power plants, which account for more than twenty percent of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. Global warming statistics also show that power plants are the biggest producers of carbon dioxide which produce almost thirty percent of the world’s carbon dioxide. … Continue reading
Republicans Have No Global Warming Solutions
Many republican elected officials have stated that they are not in favor of passing legislation issuing global warming solutions most likely because they do not believe global warming exists. Democrats know how to stop global warming but are having trouble passing legislation because of the republican’s demand for a super majority in order to pass anything. There are several different types of global warming solutions like developing new kinds of alternative and renewable energies such as solar, wind and geothermal power. Investing in this will create millions of new jobs, which will put Americans back to work and stimulate our economy. The list of global warming solutions also include producing more electric cars like RAV4s and hybrids. This will substantially reduce the amount of pollution that gas powered cars create and it will also create more jobs. The democrats do not claim to know how to stop global warming from their own basic knowledge. These global warming solutions come from scientists who have evidence that proves that not only does global warming exist, but explains how to stop global warming. In the world of politics, the republicans have always been better at getting their message heard. That does not give … Continue reading
Al Gore Warns About the Effects of Global Warming
In 2006 Davis Guggenheim directed a film that documented former Vice President Al Gore’s findings about dangers and effects of global warming. The film “Inconvenient Truth” explains global warming effects on the planet and various steps we can take to prevent further damage. While he has always been a strong promoter of climate change, it was not until after the 2000 presidential race that he made it a primary focus. The film was very successful in the United States and abroad. Many of the film’s viewers claimed to be more aware of the effects of global warming after watching it. Some viewers also said they changed many of their ways of life after learning about global warming effects on the planet. Global warming effects all of us living on planet Earth in many ways. Al Gore is a strong advocate and warns us that we must take the effects on global warming very seriously. Al Gore faced some harsh criticism from people who do not believe that global warming effects are real. When the film first came out there were many organizations who tried to block the film from being seen be certain viewers as well as schools who felt … Continue reading
Global Warming Causes Concern
Most of the causes of global warming are due to human activity. Many of the activities we do on a daily basis produce greenhouse gases that disrupt the way our planet works in relation to the sun and its energy. Global warming causes many people to worry about the future of our planet. If we do not start taking bigger steps to stop this problem, the causes of global warming can end our existence as we know it. One of the most important parts about global warming causes is knowing each different type of greenhouse gas and why the causes of global warming are dangerous to our planet. The most popular and common greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide which can be produced by burning fossil fuels and waste. Another dangerous gas would be methane would is released by developing and moving fossil fuels. Methane is much more dangerous than carbon dioxide. Out of all the greenhouse gases, the one that there seems to be the most of is water vapor. Nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases are some other major gases as well. These gases are the main causes of global warming. While there is nothing we can do about the … Continue reading
