The Effects Of Global Climate Change On The World
1. The Effects Of Global Climate Change On The World
The effects of global climate change are everywhere from major cities to the under populated
arctics. Most people just call it global warming, but it is not. By calling it global warming people are
assuming that everywhere in the world, temperatures are rising and that it will be hotter all year
long, but this is not the case. This is why the scientific community calls it global climate change,
because it can be hotter in the Summer time and colder in the Winter time. Global climate change
occurs naturally over the Earth's life cycle, hence ice ages, but due to humans after the post
industrial period in the past 200 years, the speed of the change has been dramatically accelerated.
Global climate change is mostly caused by humans polluting the atmosphere with carbon dioxide,
methane and other greenhouse gases, which are gases that absorb heat. Humans are putting
greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by the use of automobiles, power plants, and factories. The
effects of global climate change affect everyone and everything. One example of this is polar bears;
the polar bear's habitat in the arctic is melting away, as their ice melts the sea levels will rise putting
cities like Norfolk and New York under water. Global climate change, is accelerated by humans,and
its impacts can be felt on a global level but can be lessened with changes to everyday life.
Over the last 650,000 years the Earth's climate has been through about seven ice ages("Climate

5. Climate Change Is A Major World Issue That Affects Our...
Ever heard of climate change? Known to some as only a "hoax," however it is just the opposite and
in the near future, will become our biggest threat. We are all caught in a "climate crisis," one that
affects our entire way of life and needs taken action by all world powers. DiCaprio effectively
convinces his audience that climate change is a major world issue that needs attention and action by
all world powers; he does this through his use of statistics, appeals to ethos and pathos and his
overall serious tone. In order to persuade the United Nations' members, DiCaprio occasionally states
a fact, statistic or desperate need to grab their attention. In his first paragraph, DiCaprio introduces
himself and thanks the other members for having him and then quickly switches to his reasons for
his statement. He states how he was one of 400,000 people to march in New York City on Sunday,
September 20th in 2015, the highest recorded number of people to march for the purpose of climate
change. DiCaprio uses this statistic to strike a sense of concern and anguish into the listening
members, this works because of the sheer number of people who participated and "the billions of
others around the world who want to solve our climate crisis" (DiCaprio, 1). Another point, in
paragraph 11, he talks about renewable energy and how it can improve not just our "problem" but
also the economy. He says, "...by 2050, clean, renewable energy could supply 100% of the world's
energy needs"

13. How Did The Second World War Change The World
World War I brought about changes in the way countries were ruled around the world as there was a
steady decrease of those who lived in an empire. This decrease came from economic, political and
cultural factors that transformed the world to the one that is today, one with no empires in existence.
Two prime examples of this occurrence are in the regions of Africa and the Middle East, who
transitioned from an empire to a nation.
The driving forces to pursue a nation were brought up by nationalists who wanted a "home rule"
structure where the region has power over their own government. This could only be obtained from
being released from foreign rule. Foreign rule brought oppression to the native people and they were
stripped of their rights. The first example takes place in Africa, specifically in Kenya, where
decolonization occurred in the early 1960s. The people in Kenya experienced the oppression of

21. The Effects Of Climate Change On The World
Climate change is one of the most crucial issues in the twentieth century. There is much evidence to
show fluctuations in weather occurring on the earth. Scientists found that the period of global
warming is occurring more frequently than the previous time and rapidly increasing temperature
globally. The statistic records on the nineteenth century, calculated that the surface of earth
throughout the 100 years ago that had average increase of approximately 0.8C. However, during the
period thirteen years ago, the average temperature increase around 0.6C and continually warming
with an upward trend in the shortest period. These events cause drastic changes which affect human
life such as extreme weather (hotter and colder), food and fresh water shortages and higher levels of
the ocean. It is important for people to being concern what happens now. This essay will focus on
the main cause of anthropogenic changing climate, in order to evaluate and link the outcome of
activity.
Human activity contributed greenhouse gases especially four principal gases: carbon dioxide (Co2),
Methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and the halocarbons (a group of gases containing fluorine
chlorine and bromine) those gases cause the greenhouse effect, by prevented radiation of sun from
the earth release to the space. As a result, the temperature rapid increase and continually change the

Climate change is one of the world's biggest threats. Climate change has been and currently still is
affecting the planet. It affects the environment, animals, plants, the ecosystem and it affects humans
as well. However, even though climate change affects humans, we also play a big part in
contributing to climate change. For example, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere has gone up due
to the burning of fossil fuels (from human activity) as well as deforestation (clearing or removal of
trees) which requires human participation (Reece). The rise of CO2 affects the global temperature
and human activities only add to the climate change. As stated before, climate change not only
effects humans, it also effects plants and animals. For instance, with climate change happening,
plants and animals are experiencing drastic changes in their habitat. Therefore, plants and animals
have to migrate to an environment better suited for them. (Reece). Climate change has also had an
effect on the arctic as well as plants, animals, humans, etc. It is said that climate change is known to
be the greatest threat to the arctic as we know it. For example, the arctic sea has already experienced
the largest amount of warming in 2012 and it is suggested that within a few decades or so there may
not be any more ice. Henceforth, the habitat for seals, polar bears and other mammals will be

All that needs to be done for a person to see that climate change is upon the world is to look outside.
The seasons that used to be defined by their drastically different weather have started to blend into a
year–long battle for hot and cold, along with unusual rainfall during typically dry spells. Climate
change is the change in global or regional climate patterns. Global warming is the idea that the
world is being heated by a few degrees every year brought on by an increase in carbon dioxide
levels from the growing use of fossil fuels. Together these two things will begin to change the
habitats as we know them and could devastate the world as we know it. There have been many
studies on the changing climate, and people have begun to realize how significant of an issue this is
in present time. The government and the EPA have released many bulletins on changes that are
currently taking place, and have projected that it will only continue to escalate to the point that
humankind will have a minuscule chance of survival. There are those who do not agree that people
are causing the shut–down of the climates, or adding to the breakdown of the ozone layer that
protects us from radiation in the atmosphere. Some scientists refuse to accept that taking any
preventative measures will have any impact on the climate changes, in lieu of the astounding

many historical events to come after it. The four year long war did not end with the signing of the
treaty of Versailles, it sent the world into shambles and lived on by affecting the world socially,
politically, economically, psychologically and culturally. In the poems "A War Film" by Teresa

Geographic's "Six Degrees Can Change the World." In the video, the changes which would occur in
the world as the average temperature is increasing degree by degree include habitats dying and a
different world from the one people currently inhabit. There are many effects of global warming,
and, fortunately, some ways humans can prevent the world from heating up past its current
temperature. Global warming is the gradual increase in the overall temperature of the Earth's
atmosphere. It is caused by the emission of Co2, mostly through fossil fuels (coal, oil, and gas).
Small marine animals in the ocean use the Co2 in water to build new shells or skeletons; however,
too much Co2 in the oceans turns the water very acidic, which can dissolve the animals shells and
prevent them from absorbing it. Losing these animals also results in losing coral reefs, which, if lost,
ends the lives of over fifty thousand species of marine animals. The loss of these animals would
disrupt the food chain, the water cycle, and it could have drastic effects. ... Show more content on

What do you know about global climate change? Do you think we create this problem in the
twentieth–first century to damage our planet. This problem started at the beginning of civilization
and became worse during the Industrial Revolution of the eighteenth century. Older generations
generated more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere due to the burning of fossil fuel and
deforestation. More carbon dioxide had a negative impact on the ecosystems of the planet. And the
scientific definition of global climate represents changes in the earth's weather and temperature.
When higher greenhouse gas concentrates in the atmosphere, the earth becomes warmer. Water
vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane are the gases that lead to the greenhouse effect. Pollution of the
earth causes damage to the ozone layer in the atmosphere, and it's easy for the sun rays to pass in the
earth. Global climate change causes a negative impact on the environment and the world's oceans.
Global climate change causes many problems for the planet. The population growth of earth is 7.125
billion. Can anybody imagine how much greenhouse gas we produce in the atmosphere? Because
they 're more people on the earth, we need more natural resources in daily life. People destroy more

There is no doubt that climate change is happening around the world. Climate change is occurring
everywhere, but not everyone can see it. Some people fail to realize that climate change is
happening because they aren't aware of what it is. According to the Oxford Dictionary, it is "the
change in global climate patterns are attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon
dioxide." Carbon dioxide is accumulating in the air, which captures the sun's heat. In return, the
earth is warming up. This epidemic is occurring globally, but it affects certain regions and cities
differently. Therefore, climate change should be looked at from various scales. The first scale would
be globally because it is a worldwide issue. Climate change affects the earth as a whole. For
example, temperature is being affected in a large scale. According to "Climate Change: Global,
Regional and Urban", Earth's temperature has averaged an increase of 1.1 degrees Fahrenheit
annually ("Climate Change" 1). This tendency is predicted to remain with years to come. Another
large–scale issue is the greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases affect water supply. If the greenhouse
gases are not reduced at the global scale, more people will suffer water scarcity. Other tendencies
that occur globally like temperature are heat waves, cold waves, heavy precipitation and obliteration
of ecosystems. The second scale would be regionally. When looking at climate change affects on

85. Climate Change Brings Great Risk For World Wide Security
In addressing the facts that the "Pentagon is unveiling that climate change brings great risk for world
wide security" (Banerjee, Hennigan, 2014). As the Pentagon analyst I take great pride in giving the
conclusion that we as a society needs to take climate change seriously. In the Pentagon plan they are
taking great preparation so they can be cost effective. In the article they are using satellite images
that portray that the "southwestern countries have hot spots that could carry high levels of methane
that can become hazardous" for humans and animals health issues (Banerjee, Hennigan, 2014).
Corresponding to the article it seems like they are trying to stop the founding to the Pentagon which
I have the confidence in using all of our resources that we as a whole nation can help slow down the
global warming. The general issue of climate change is that no one really wants to learn about it,
until it effects there home town. By this phase learning about climate change will be too late, and

causes risk of sudden avalanches of rocks and soil released from the ice, and the major affect that it

89. Climate Change Has Changed The World
It is possible to conclude that Climate Change has rapidly picked up in the last few decades due to
fossil fuel emissions caused by humans, creating a warming of the earth that is melting the glaciers
causing sea levels to rise each year. The sea levels rising have already shown some low level
communities living by the ocean just a preview of what can later be seen in many years to come.
With the glaciers melting away, humans all around the world are losing an astronomical percentage
of fresh water as well, which have been stored in glaciers on the edges of the globe. With the
process already taking place in today's world, the only thing left to do is to embrace the
consequences, and find a way to slow down the process of melting and save some of the lands that
will be soon under oceanic waters, or to adapt to the new world that we will be seeing in the near
future. "Throughout its long history, Earth has warmed and cooled time and again. Climate has
changed when the planet received more or less sunlight due to subtle shifts in its orbit, as the
atmosphere or surface changed, or when the Sun's energy varied. But in the past century, another
force has started to influence Earth's climate: humanity". (Earth observatory) Humanity has taken a

He expressed multiple ideas that all revolved around one similar standpoint – how can you change
the world? After graduating from U of T back in 1977, McRaven spent the next six months

April 23, 2015
Climate Change Throughout The World Climate change has been an argument going on for years
now. Since industrialization, there has been numerous debates asking the question: Is climate change
due to natural evolution or is it the human species causing this change? Scientist's try their best to
predict the future, but it is just that, a prediction. Take a meteorologist for example. Your local
weatherman states that it is going to rain that day and you take all of the necessary precautions for
this incident only to see that it does not in fact rain. Climate change has not only been debated by
scientists around the world, but also become a major political debate as well. Politicians are
generally out for one thing, and that is popularity. Climate change is a topic that is constantly
changing. You never know what to believe in their speeches. This brings me to my point, which is
you never really know what is going to happen. According to NASA, "Certain gases in the
atmosphere block heat from escaping." We live in what scientist like to refer to as a "...greenhouse
effect, or the warming that happens when the atmosphere traps heat radiating from Earth toward
space." (http://climate.nasa.gov/) When thinking about it in this way, it makes the most sense to me
that although we are not the only reason for climate change, we are a great factor. We cause the

social hierarchy and status quo are thrown on their heads, and geopolitical relations devolve
drastically, but valiantly manage to save the remaining thread of humanity. Evident changes and

and apply its meaning to specific situations in our everyday lives. The transition from high school to

In World War Z, education as a theme is almost exclusively based in an unfortunate trial and error.
From the progression of zombie fighting techniques revolutionized from the failure at Yonkers to the
triumph at Hope, to adoption of the Redeker Plan, it was impossible not to notice that
experimentation began to begat success. Humanity began to learn from their past mistakes, and
apply hard earned knowledge in practical ways to limit loss of resources and life, which really is the
essence of education. This being my freshman year at West Virginia University, there are no
shortage of things that offer this sort of practical life experience, based in a trial and error of sorts.
As a pharmacy undergrad, I realize the importance of broadening intellectual horizons, deepening
my knowledge of chemistry and biology, because peoples' well–being depends on it. Much like

thoughts and opinions about certain issues. And artists use music and their lyrics to get their point
across to their intended audience. Because of our "lack of power," music and social media allow us
to voice our opinions about current issues.

Summer Assignment Many groups around the world are culturally and economically altered by
other people and events. Before 1750, the British and the Spanish were infinitely changed because
of their interactions with the Indians of North America. These two groups began exploring the New
World due to the glorified idea that there was an abundance of spices, silk, and wealth. The British
and the Spanish ventured into the New World looking for new land, new goods, and new
beginnings. Initially the Spanish explorers, such as Columbus, Cortes and Onate, made huge strides
in finding a route to the New World. Five years later, the British discovered the New World five
years later. The British encountered many Indian tribes and believed that by distancing themselves
from these tribes, they could create a purely English society in North America. Contrary to the
British, the Spanish enslaved the Indians and ruled over them in order to get what they wanted. The
Spanish attempted to spread their culture and rule the Indians while gaining economic prosperity
from the mined gold and silver. The British, on the other hand, tried isolating their culture from the
Indians while gaining economic prosperity by using the Indians agricultural assistance. The British
were motivated to join this age of exploration because of their desire to colonize. Before the British

The countries held conferences all over the world, summoning the best of the scientist, to solve the

With climate change being upon us, the time to act is now. Evidence of drastic climate changes
include the following: record low polar ice caps during the summer of 2012, record drought in
California, excessive flooding in the eastern half of Texas and record heat in India. This is all
evidence of what our "normal" climate will be like in the future. If we don't act right now, we will
live in a world where cities along the coast like Miami, New York and New Orleans will be partially
underwater. Record breaking heatwaves like the Chicago Heatwave of 1995 and the European
Heatwave during the summer of 2003 will become a normal occurrence. Furthermore, polar bears
will become extinct, since there will be little to no ice in the arctic during the next few years and
decades. Therefore, we must be cautious of the actions that we take right now, since the future of our
planet is heavily dependent on it. Increased burning of fossil fuels and rising greenhouse gases have
both boosted the rate of climate change to unprecedented lengths that we have never seen before. If
we don't reduce greenhouse gases, we will live in a world that is "anywhere from 1.8C (3.24F)
warmer (low emissions scenario) to 4C (7.2F) warmer (high emissions scenario) by 2050."

Between 1998 and 2002 production rose by 14% while earnings decreased by 31%! These economic
factors are a major reason for a lack of development in affected areas. Asia and S. America were less

fully take part in the globalised economy. In much of Africa however this was held up by a lack of
integration into the digital infrastructure. Brandt predicted in 1980 that Africa would be left behind
by the 'digital divide' and most countries of East/Southern Africa were only connected to the
terrestrial broadband cable between 2007 and 2010. In 2009 to put 25 agents on the phone in Kenya
for a month cost $17000 while in India it cost just $600. Despite the impacts of economic factors
however the biggest impacts on modern patterns of world development have been political, social
and cultural. President Museveni of Uganda likened the advent of African independence as giving
a six year old the keys to the gun and liquor cabinets and then being surprised at what happened
next. The biggest factors in Africa slipping behind developmentally has been political instability

The documentary starts out with Rule 1, which is to "plant a mind bomb". The word "mind bomb"
was a word made up by Robert Hunter that referred to how you can use electronic media as a tool

think about a certain issue. While explaining this step to you, the documentary also shows you just
how Greenpeace went about doing this, and how it worked for them. The example they give you for
rule 1 is when Greenpeace risked their lives in order to capture the footage of a harpoon from a
Russian whaling ship hit a whale directly in front of Greenpeace's boat. The video then continued to
show the whaling ship drag the whale back in while the whale was still alive and thrashing around.
It then showed you authentic newspaper articles and clips from news broadcasts of the time that
were all buzzing about the video Greenpeace captured. This mind bomb clearly worked for them as

rather than something impossible, and the changes began to make peace more fragile thus leaving no
option but a World War.

competition. During the quest, the British would often try and conquer or colonize the areas in

cause the sea levels to rise again. Also major rivers will begin to dry up. Five degree change will
cause snow packs and aquifers to dry out. This would start to change the behavior of humans.
traditional social systems would break down. Humans would need to become mobile and find places
