Climate change is one of the debatable issues in the world today. It is worth noting that climate change is a big threat to humanity and sustainability. Climate change refers to a lasting and significant change in the distribution of weather patterns in a period of time. The causes of climate change are many, and there is need to mitigate them in various ways. Both the developing and developed countries are part of the causes and effect of climate change; hence, every country is part of the issues concerning climate change. The problem of climate change begins when the greenhouse gases are ...

A drought that occurred in 1988 over North America sparked scientists to suggest theories as to what caused the phenomenon. From this, studies spawned as to what we can now relate to as “global warming”. According to Congress and the United States Administration, global warming is caused by a build-up of greenhouse gases such as; carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide, methane and chlorofluorocarbons. This was the stepping stone to more studies and theories on greenhouse gas and global warming.
The greenhouse effect is a natural occurrence that allows ultraviolet radiation to pass on the surface of the earth and blocks infrared ...

Pollution is the process of the contamination of the environment due to the mankind’s activity, mostly industrial. The situation has worsened since the beginning of 20th century when the dawn of industrialization is noted. Environmental situation is being characterized by the following types of pollution: air contamination as well as the pollution of water and soil resources. From the beginning of 1960s scientists all over the world began to attract society’s attention to this problem because as a direct consequence of contamination (that comes from the activity of human existence, as mentioned previously) appeared Greenhouse effect. It is a ...

In Big, Smart, and Green: A Revolutionary Vision for Modern Farmer, Keim explored the how Marsden Farm has revolutionized farming by combining the best aspects of two practices – organic and industrial farming – while addressing sustainability and food supply issues. This combination is called an alternative version of farming, which was described as “smart, green and powerful” (Keim). The goal of this alternative version of farming is to adopt practices in industrial farming to meet the target yield while eliminating the use of chemicals and avoiding the consequences of industrial farming on soil quality and yield. The alternative was a result ...

The primary source of energy and chemicals is crude oil with an annual demand of 43.8 billion tons per year of which 30 % is used for transport. The transport sector is expanding rapidly across the globe, thus increasing the demand for oil in the future. Oil is a non-renewable resource and its availability will imminently reduce, this shall further escalate the prices of oil and energy (Hazell 2006).
The other concerning issue is global warming caused by fossil fuel combustion and other anthropogenic emissions that includes are greenhouse gases (GHGs) especially carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and sulphur hexafluoride. ...

The article in National Geographic Magazine was entitled “Ocean Acidification”. It was written by Elizabeth Kolbert and the photographs were taken by David Liittschwager. The article discusses the acidity of the sea and how carbon dioxide and harmful greenhouse gases are seeping into the ocean and affecting life in the water. The study takes place in two locations, the first is in Castello Aragones, which is west of Naples, and the second location is in Australia, by the sea in the Great Barrier Reef of Queensland.
The article first explains why the locations were chosen and what was ...

Article Review: Global Warming

In Uzochukwu's "The Impact of Global Warming on North Carolina," the titular issue with North Carolina's climate change is explored. According to the article, scientists around the world have concluded that human contribution to climate change is real, and comes about through the emission of greenhouse gases. With this in mind, the author notes how this has affected the state in question, and what individuals or organizations are attempting to reduce human greenhouse gas impact and climate change.
The problem, as described in the article, includes the rampant economic, environmental and societal impact of climate change on North ...

Global warming is the rise in the atmospheric temperature. This increase in temperature is caused by the release of greenhouse gases to the environment. This article cites global warming as the real cause of climate change. Release of greenhouse gases is vast in the more industrialized countries. Burning of fossils has also contributed greatly to the increase of global warming. However, global warming has affected many parts of the world differently. Some parts have mild effects while others have severe effects.
An increase in the atmospheric temperature has increased agricultural productivity. Increased rainfall and warmth in the atmosphere ...

Joelving, Frederik. “Hospitals hype robot surgery for women: Study.” The American Journal of Obstetrics & Gynecology. (2012). Accessed October 29, 2012. http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/07/20/us-hospitals-hype-robot-surgery-idUSBRE86J0UQ20120720
This resource highlights robotic surgery for women and identifies better outcomes. Basically, the article makes a reference to the better result of robot surgery since the approach offers a surgeon a magnified 3-D view with excellent imaging of extremely small blood vessels. While doctors make long incision in an open surgery which makes patients profusely bleed and take time to heal, robot surgery facilitates faster recovery and reduced blood loss. However, the article notes increased operating time and higher cost ...

Thong, Haw-Yueh, and Howard I. Maibach. "Global Warming And Its Dermatologic Implications." International Journal of Dermatology 47 (2008): 522-524. Print

Written by Haw-Yueh Thong and Howard I. Maibach, the article ‘Global Warming and its Dermatologic Implications,’ seeks to demystify the topic of global warming and how it relates to dermatology. The article begins by identifying scientific claims of the role of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, chlorofluorocarbons, and nitrous oxide in increasing global temperatures and leading to general climatic shifts. The article outlines its presentation under three major areas; ‘Global warming and the UV exposure of human ...

. Journal 1 Findings:
According to Ozores-Hampton et al (2002), greenhouse pot trials conducted using immature and mature Municipal Solid Waste-biosolids (MSW) composts as a mulch decreased the percentage emergence and increased MDE (Mean Days to Emergence) of the seeds of several weed species. The greater the depth of composts, the more pronounced were the beneficial effects. Also, it was found that the immature composts, having higher percentages of acetic acid, required less depth of mulch to have the same effect. However, it was noted that the immature compost use would be most suitable where: a) the vegetable crop and the ...
