Mother Earth
These have been causing climate change all through the history of mother earth. Only in the last few centuries, the impact of man on climate change has accelerated. Due to rapid industrialization and very high energy consumption, man has been drilling petrol from deep inside the earth, throwing it out into atmosphere through uncontrolled emission almost relentlessly every second and all over the world. Thus Mother earth has been subjected to artificial volcanic eruptions every second, polluting the atmosphere all around earth. This definitely has accelerated the climate change. The expanding human population and greedy consumption of minerals and materials has resulted in rapid deforestation. This has accelerated the changes in vegetation and has accelerated the aging process of Mother Earth. Onshore and Offshore drilling of petroleum, Huge dams that generate hydro-electric power, deforestation, un-controlled mining et al could have caused changes in tectonic plate movements or accelerate earth-quakes, though it is yet to be scientifically proved. Irrespective of man’s actions, Earth has its own life-cycle and would get doomed in few billion years. But man’s irresponsible actions as I said above have accelerated or subverted the natural process in particular directions and brought the impending doom much closer. This doom is not for Mother Earth. It is the doom for all the species living in Mother Earth and in particular the doom for human race. So when we talk about saving Mother Earth, it’s not about saving Mother Earth. It is about saving ourselves and our progeny from faster

    First of all, the cause of current climate change is typical of global warming has been confirmed is mainly due to human activities. Humans have used more energy mainly from raw materials including coal, oil, natural gas, which was released to the atmosphere increasing the gas causing the greenhouse effect of the atmosphere, leading to raise the temperature of the earth.…

    Do you believe that our natural world can come to an end because of our actions and careless attitudes? It is obvious that the global environmental changes are primarily caused by the growing trend of human’s actions and industrial revolution. Unfortunately, these changes are irreversible and directly contribute to the continuous deterioration of our planet. This is the topic that Thomas Friedman (2016) focuses on his article, “We are all Noah now”. In this article “We are all Noah now” Friedman (2016) states that the planet and human’s life are seriously affected by these changes. The author discussed many issues by explaining their sever impact. One major issue humans do is deforestation, where the tree cutting is on rise with diverse consequences…

    The author Diane Ackerman describes how the new age of human revolution begins to rises, as the changing effects of Earth's nature start to dies. The race of humans had created a wide terrestrial destruction on Earth, but the humans do have their economic capabilities and resource technologies to fix the entire ecosystems as possible. Then again, they cannot reverse the changing effects of the global warming and climates. Between the media news and the U.N., as the United Nations, are always doing many reports on the global warming, and it gets the human societies into thinking that earth is going be doom. They might be feeling the depths of fear growing inside their conscious minds as if the world is going to finally end. Nevertheless, the…

    Global climate change has been a subject of much discussion for some time now. The earth has naturally gone through heating and cooling phases in its lifetime. Most scientists agree that these changes aren’t solely the product of humans, but that the time required for natural climate change has been decreased due to humans. This has led to new problems for the earth and all of its inhabitants. According to research the earth is warming at an average of 1.2-1.4° F every 100 years (epa.gov).…

    Plate Tectonics Chart

    Climate can be affected by many things. One of the biggest affects may be the motion of the tectonic plates. The Earths plates have been in motion approximately since its beginnings or shortly after, continuously causing climate to change. The Earth’s movement of plates as well as the apparent polar wandering can both play a role in this change. J. Adems thermodynamic meteorologic model traces the evolution of climate from the Triassic time period to the current time period. According to the results of this model “the gross changes of climate in the Northern Hemisphere can be fully explained by the strong cooling in high latitudes as continents moved poleward” (Donn, 2013). Today we continue to see climate changes around the world. There are many factors contributing to such changes however, the constant motion of the plates causing continents to drift is having a large impact on climate. Plate movement also contributes to increased volcanic activity. When a volcano erupts it releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere which can cause global temperatures to rise. While this may not be a significant affect it is an example of how the motion of the tectonic plates can affect the climate.…

    Human influences also contribute to climate change by increasing in the CO2 levels. Carbon dioxide is greenhouse gas. That means warm air is staying close to the Earth like in a greenhouse. The increase in the CO2 levels has been a problem over the years due to carbon dioxide. There are twenty-nine billion tons emitted in our atmosphere. Forty-three percent still stick around that called airborne fraction. Deforestation is big factor in how we contribute to climate change. Deforestation means our forests are being burned down for building cities and for farming. This is hurting our atmosphere and our animals, trees and etc.…

    Earth; scientifically most gifted potential for life, deemed one in many trillion. It is 4.5 billion years old. And humanity, has been around only for 200 000 years. Conceptualizing this, if we shrink the age of earth to 24 hours, we have only been around for four seconds. In four seconds we have shaped this beauty into a polluted ruin. “Homo sapiens” in Latin meaning “wise man”. Wise. Intelligent, yes. Wise, I don’t think so. We have split the atom into two, created autonomous robots, advanced technology beyond our imagination. However, simultaneously that split of the atom also caused nuclear warfare, millions of lives taken, ultimately leaving the carbon footprint still haunting our existence.…

    Burning fossil fuels is causing climate change. Climate change is increasing heat and glaciers are starting to melt. When glaciers melt sea levels increase and in the past century they have increased by 17 centimeters (climate.nasa.gov). That shows that climate change is actually happening. Also the thickness of artic ice has declined rapidly over the last decade…

    There are also other factors causing this too; humans aren’t the only ones causing this. According to NASA, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which is a group of 1,300 scientists from all over the world reported that there is a staggering 95 percent chance that our planet has become warmer. Mostly due to increased human activities. Since we have become so industrialized; the waste product, CO2, has increased significantly. According to NASA, CO2 levels have increased from 280 parts per million to 400 parts per million. Another contributing factor are the polar ice caps and glaciers melting; they have trapped CO2 in them, and when they melt that trapped CO2 is released out into the atmosphere too. This is a chain reaction of humans being more industrialized. Some other greenhouse gases that effect the warming of Earth include methane and nitrous oxide. Before the Earth started to go through climate change; when the Earth got hot during the day it would always cool down by night enough. But with greenhouse gases they insulate the heat and they just get trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere, and the Earth doesn’t cool down as much as it did perviously. Since the polar ice caps and glaciers are melting which is leading to sea levels rising. Since the sea levels are rising they are starting to take some of the costal areas of some countries. I’ve witnessed this myself as a kid. When I…
