The Debate Against Global Warming

By Genevieve Thomson

Until recently the war against global warming was a relatively small and unknown one. Most people were not aware of the global warming science that struggles daily to inform the public of important data and facts about how we play a part in global warming.

There have been movies made about large corporations polluting the environment and the stories dot the media. It is separating the facts from the opinions that make the issue so difficult.

It is not so much as anyone is for or against global warming, as it is a debate over what the effects of global warming actually are. It is also that many people, scientists included, are not positive what the effect mankind has on the environment when it comes to global warming or greenhouse gases. The reality is that for every argument stating a fact about global warming, there is an opposing fact negating it.

The fuel we use impacts the environment and everyone is aware of this as we pull up to the gas pump. All parties involved in arguing for or against global warming can agree on one thing. Eventually our fossil fuels, such as oil and coal, will eventually be depleted.

Alternative Energy Sources

We must find alternative energy sources and implement them on a daily basis. What does this have to do with global warming? It is the byproduct of burning fossil fuels that sparks the debates against global warming.

Climate warming is thought to occur when gases create a barrier preventing solar rays from exiting the atmosphere. Carbon Dioxide is a leading byproduct of burning oil, gasoline and coal. It is also a natural byproduct of animals and humans.

Animals Producing Gasses

Environmental groups argue that if humans would cut down their consumption of meat, there would be fewer animals producing gases. Is this true? That, like many of the other arguments for and against global warming, is under debate.

We do have choices when it comes to using fossil fuels. We can elect to install solar panels to help heat our homes. We can drive hybrid cars that cut the use of gasoline considerably. We can recycle paper, metal and plastics to help reduce landfills. Will this help in the global warming debate? It may help some by removing our dependence on oil companies.

As people become informed, the arguments for and against global warming will continue until there is a crucial decision made and factual information presented. It does not look like that will happen any time soon.

There are simply too many unknown factors that fuel the debates and neither side seems close to reaching a conclusion on their studies. It will take years for studies to be conducted and results published. Until that time, each person must become educated on both sides of the global warming debate.

Little Known Global Warming Facts.....

I've seen movies where catastrophes occurred due to global warming. Could these really happen?
Thanks to a couple of movies recently, an increase in the conditions of our environment has come into the spotlight even though scientists have been aware of these problems for over ten years. There are some nuggets of truth hidden behind the plot lines and story twists but for the most part these movies are simply fiction.
