The greenhouse effect is the retention of solar heat in a natural way that makes the earth habitable. Gries, Redlin, & Ugarte (2019) state that “even before the industrialization and the rising importance of fossil fuels, the Earth’s surface was modified by human activity through deforestation, agricultural activity, and urbanization” (p. 1031). Excessive energy use,…

During the search for the causes of the collapses of historical and modern societies, Jared Diamond’s Five Points Framework emphasizes the environmental factor as pivotal. In the same way historic nations met their demise when faced with the degradation of the environment, the modern world is jeopardized by climate change. As conflicts develop, the natural…

The climate of the planet is changing, and today it is impossible to deny. The temperature of air and water is increasing every decade. When discussing warming, people often discuss the risks to nature and the economy: plants and animals will suffer from high temperatures, and droughts will force many people to move to other…

Climate change is at the top of current discussions around the globe. Allenby’s “Climate Redux: Welcome to the Anthropocene” and Lovbrand et al.’s “Earth System governmentality” offer timely insights into this discussion, albeit in different ways. On the one hand, Lovbrand et al. (2009) discuss how the integrative Earth System approach impacts our understanding of…

I agree with your statement that global warming has many consequences, and a few of them were listed in National Geographic’s video. Besides, multiple evidence-based scientific discoveries emphasize the importance of addressing the climate crisis urgently. As the population grows globally, industries that serve and feed them enforce production and become more harmful to greenhouse…

The use of coal plants to provide energy has been at the center of the growth of many economies of the world. In the US alone, coal powers 25% of all electricity used domestically and industrially (Society for Mining, Metallurgy and Exploration, 2022). On the other hand, studies associate coal with the emission of greenhouse…

In recent years, the Earth’s climate has changed markedly, with some countries suffering from abnormal heat waves and others from winters that are too harsh and snowy for their liking. Many environmentalists argue about global climate change, including increases in average annual temperatures, melting glaciers, rising sea levels, and more. The problem is still relevant…

Introduction Climate change is the gradual change of the Earth’s climate due to the rising amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. As a result of the shift in equilibrium, the ecosystem is under threat, including the future of humanity. For instance, the average global temperatures have risen by 1.2˚C, with the most significant changes…
