Global WarmingThe climate is changing. The earth is warming and there is now overwhelming scientific consensus that this is happening and is human-induced. As global warming increases and species and their habitats decline, ecosystems' ability to adapt naturally is diminishing. Many agree that climate change could be one of the biggest threats to the planet. Recent years show an increase in temperatures in various regions and an increase in extremes in weather patterns. Research has shown that air pollutants from fossil fuel use cause clouds to reflect more of the sun's rays back into space. This leads to an effect known as global dimming where less heat and energy reaches the earth. At first glance, he seems like an ironic savior of climate change problems. However, global dimming is believed to have caused drought in Ethiopia in the 1970s and 1980s, where millions of people died, because the Northern Hemisphere's oceans were not warm enough for rain to form. Global dimming also hides the true power of global warming. For many years, large and influential corporations and governments have opposed the idea of ​​global warming. Many have invested a lot of resources to discredit what has long been generally accepted as real. Now, the mainstream is generally concerned about the impacts of climate change and the conversation seems to have shifted accordingly. Even some companies that were once engaged in disinformation campaigns have changed their minds, some even asking governments for regulation and direction on this issue. However, some influential companies and organizations are still attempting to undermine actions and concerns related to climate change. The crux of the matter is this. Climate... half of paper ......transforming our global environment will require the resources and enlightened action of government and industry. However, because government and industry exist to serve the needs of their citizens and customers, the way you live your life, the demands you and your neighbors make for products and services that help sustain rather than erode the environment , will influence those actions and, ultimately, the future of planet Earth. Reducing global warming and mitigating its effects will require a combination of enlightened public policy, corporate commitment and personal action. The good news is that the world's leading climate scientists agree that there is still enough time to tackle global warming if we act now, and enough money to get the job done without weakening national economies. . bibliography Globalwarminghttp://www. livescience.com/globalwarming/
