Global Warming
Since global warming appeared during the last decade as a serious environmental issue, it has been the subject of a lot of debate. Global warming is defined as the warming of the earth by greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere naturally or by mankind. Global Warming is a problem that is plaguing the world in many ways. Because of wide spread pollution, and negligence with the use of aerosols and other ozone depleting agents, the ozone layer that shields the earth's surface is steadily being depleted. This deterioration of the ozone layer is allowing for ultra violet radiation, emitted by the sun, to penetrate the protective ozone layer and bombard the earth's surface with these carcinogenic rays. These are the rays that are staying in the earth's atmosphere and causing the temperature to rise. This may not seem like a big deal, but in actuality is causing the sea levels to rise about two inches every year. These are several problems that are a cause for worrying ab!out global warming. If this phenomenon continues, Long Island could become completely submerged under the ocean in a couple of hundred years. Do you really want to do that to your grandchi
S. Fred Singer. Hot Talk, Cold Science: Global Warming's Unfinished Debate. Independence Institute, October 1999. Within the last 15 years or so, some people did notice this massive monumental problem. The leading nations of the world have brought the United Nations and task force to be in charge of solving the problem that we are encountering. Also several committees were formed to help this problem. For instance, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). These committees are designed of world leaders and respectable scientists from all over the world. This committee was designed to come up with ways to reduce the toxic emissions and pollution in an effort to save the planet. The committee takes figures of the pollution caused by each individual country, and then the data is computed and each country is given a percentage of the total pollution emitted into the environment. The countries that emit the highest percentages of toxins will then be reviewed and solutions will be thought up to try and reduce the pollution that the country is giving off. The committee is also!
