Global Warming Issues

Hello,

We have added your web address to our database of environmental blogs. Please come by and check out your link and see the location of other environmental bloggers near you as well as across North America. It’s very cool.

Hope to see you soon!

Very nice site. It’s nice to see other advocates for global warming awareness and prevention out here!

awesome sites dudes keep it up

very nice site
it’s necessary to tell everyone about global warming.

It is shocking that US presidents have undermined the agenda of cutting greenhouse gas consumption, Where will the world go? What is this? What is the way out? I pray to Mahavatar Babaji — the guardian of this age — to arrest this scenario.

when is global warming gonna stop

“The developed countries should be responsible for halting the process of global warming.”

With this generic will run a program of actions organized by the UN. Club debates in School “Gaudeamus” will hold in March a public debate with the motion “People should take measures for prevention of global warming.”
Students were actively involved in the activities proposed in the months September to December 2008, achieving a number of projects aimed at raising public about environmental issues and especially climate change.
At the beginning of 2009 were announced on the site in cooperation with the UN Global Debates the conditions of the second stage, where http://www.thepeoplespeak.org/activities/globaldebates.html will be also organized several activities.
We believe that the developed countries are obliged to invest more to prevent global warming process, as more consumers in nature and should demonstrate greater responsibility for solving environmental problems.
Students debate club will organize a public debate on 18 March 2009 at 14.00, will be presented a draft resolution of global warming, Photo essay writing, preparing briefs, papers published in the media, sending some steps leaders by creating PSA video movies, video games, create websites, blog,s, lessons, projects, meetings with resource persons etc..
All these actions are designed to activate youth and to raise the attention of governments to take steps to have a different attitude towards them and towards nature, towards the climate in general and against the human and natural. Results of phase I can see on the site:

Topical interest: Global warming has become a topical issue in recent years. Much has been written and said, in many cases without any real knowledge of the issues involved. It has become a rallying call of various factions, many of whom have legitimate concerns, but some of whom are seemingly bent on simply asserting their own views over those of others. Sometimes these factions act with good intent, but often they are led by unreasonable emotion. The existence and consequences of global warming are now so widely accepted that people who have little knowledge of the facts or history of the subject routinely talk about it as though all the popular assumptions were well proven.
In order to aid the understanding of the issues and identify the facts, fiction and assumptions, both reasonable and unreasonable, this paper attempts to explain the history of this process, its causes and effects. The development of the world and the future development of society also need to be considered, because these have a significant impact on the whole issue.
It does not set out to justify either the creation of emissions or energy misuse. Indeed, there are many reasons why emissions should be reduced and there are many useful means of reducing energy consumption or using alternative energy sources. It is often the case that measures adopted to counter global warming are prudent for other ecological reasons. In this sense, the drive to counter global warming may have some very good side effects. However, this paper sets out to eradicate some of the gloom and despondency that now seems to accompany almost all predictions about the future of wildlife and the environment in general.
Climate change is happening and humans are contributing to it!
No one disputes that Earth’s climate is changing or that atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases have increased as a result of human activities. The concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are higher now than at any time during the last 420,000 years.
Overwhelming scientific evidence supports the conclusion that observed changes in the global climate are, in large part, due to human activities and primarily related to fossil-fuel consumption patterns. Without urgent action to curb greenhouse-gas emissions, the Earth will become warmer by 2050 than at anytime in the last 10,000 years.
Temperatures provide the clearest evidence that the climate is changing and globally the average temperature has risen by more than 0.7 °C over the last 100 years.
The natural greenhouse gas effect keeps Earth much warmer than it would otherwise be, without it Earth would be extremely cold. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and water vapour behave like a blanket around Earth. These gases allow the Sun’s rays to reach Earth’s surface but impede the heat they create from escaping back into space.
Any increases in the levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere mean that more heat is trapped and global temperatures increase – an effect known as ‘global warming’.
There is indisputable evidence from observations that the Earth is warming. Concentrations of CO2, created largely by the burning of fossil fuels, are now much higher, and increasing at a much faster rate, than at any time in the last 600,000 years. Because CO2 is a greenhouse gas, the increased concentrations have contributed to the recent warming and probably most of the warming over the last 50 years.
The rise in global surface temperature has averaged more than 0.15 °C per decade since the mid-1970s. Warming has been unprecedented in at least the last 50 years, and the 17 warmest years have all occurred in the last 20 years. This does not mean that next year will necessarily be warmer than last year, but the long-term trend is for rising temperatures.
A simple mathematical calculation of the temperature change over the latest decade (1998-2007) alone shows a continued warming of 0.1 °C per decade. The warming trend can be seen in the graph of observed global temperatures. The red bars show the global annual surface temperature, which exhibit year-to-year variability. The blue line clearly shows the upward trend, far greater than the uncertainties, which are shown as thin black bars. The recent slight slowing of the warming is due to a shift towards more-frequent La Niña conditions in the Pacific since 1998. These bring cool water up from the depths of the Pacific Ocean, cooling global temperatures.
The purpose of the research: The ample studying of the projects from the ecological problems compartment, especially those concerning climate change and its influence on Earth’s future.
Methods of research: individual research; observing changes in economy, social changes; public debates; group collaborations.
