Global Warming

Global Warming has been an issue ever since the ozone layer was found to be depleted and global temperatures found rising. Al Gore, a major proponent of global warming, helped succumb the nation to a mass hysteria of people in manic fear for their lives and the future of the planet. Surely it must be the fault of humanity, right? Gore attributed global warming to the result of human interaction in the environment, contributing to melting ice caps, rising sea levels, and the lessening of the ozone layer. But many find the data to be inaccurate, that global warming, if indeed occurring, does not result mainly from human interaction. Future generations will be faced with this problem as the government continues to seek legislation for solving the problem. Because research has proven global warming to be false, therefore it is not a serious issue, since it is only a fallacy that created hysteria in the American people.
The IPCC is a leading research group designed to find effects on the climate from human activities. One of the biggest arguments is that increased CO2 levels increase the temperature. As CO2 increases it is said to trap heat in the water, therefore warming the planet. But research has proven this to be false, since the human production of CO2 is very small compared to the amount given off by animals, volcanoes, and natural evaporation (Webcorp internet). In fact Earth creates an equilibrium system by giving off heat, so there is no significant increase in global temperatures (Cotter internet). Many scientists say that plants and animals in the environment benefit from higher levels of CO2. In fact, planters with greenhouses use CO2 to their advantage to increase their plant life (MacRae internet). Graphs depicting the carbon dioxide and temperature increases mislead viewers. There is a 300 year difference from the time temperature increases to when the carbon dioxide levels increase. It’s logically explained, since as temperatures increase, more water...
