Climate Change

 By Zachary Lipsitz
According to the Chevron company and
Congress,



       Congress accepts the scientific finding of the
       Environmental Protection Agency that ‘warming
       of the climate system is unequivocal, as is now
       evident from observations of increases in global
       average air and ocean temperatures,
       widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising
       global average sea level.
Layman’s Terms




                 Climate change is a significant and lasting
                 change in the statistical distribution of weather
                 patterns over periods ranging from decades to
                 millions of years. It may be a change in average
                 weather conditions or the distribution of
                 events around that average (e.g., more or
                 fewer extreme weather events). Climate
                 change may be limited to a specific region or
                 may occur across the whole Earth.
The lies and myths…..



Some people that are skeptical of
global warming claim that Earth’s
global surface temperatures have
been falling or have leveled off
since 1998. They point to data
now several years out of date
from U.K. researchers that put
1998 as the warmest year on
record. They also point to an
unusually cool summer in North
America in 2009 followed by an      FALSE: While it may be true that some
abnormally cold winter across all   areas have remained cool, the earth as a
of the northern hemisphere.         whole has been getting warmer
People who had to shovel record
snows from their driveways or
live without power during
ferocious snowstorms in the
northeastern United States began
to doubt decades of scientific
evidence on global warming.
The truth…. Somewhat……




         Greenhouse gases are necessary to life as we know it, because they keep the planet
         surface warmer than it otherwise would be. But, as the concentrations of these gas
         continue to increase in the atmosphere, the Earth's temperature is climbing above
         levels. According to NOAA and NASA data, the Earth's average surface temperature
         increased by about 1.2 to 1.4ºF in the last 100 years. The eight warmest years on re
         (since 1850) have all occurred since 1998, with the warmest year being 2005. Most
         the warming in recent decades is very likely the result of human activities. Other
         aspects of the climate are also changing such as rainfall patterns, snow and ice cove
         and sea level.




                               Lisa Jackson
Meanwhile…….The Debate continues




                   Can you prove that   Although researchers attempt to include as m
                   there isn’t global   processes as possible, simplifications of the a
                   warming?             climate system are inevitable because of the
                                        constraints of available computer power and
                                        limitations in knowledge of the climate syste
                                        Results from models can also vary due to diff
                                        greenhouse gas inputs and the model's clima
                                        sensitivity
