Writing Project 3 Topic

Global Warming, I am supporting that global warming is something that is going on in
the present day and will affect our future. It is also something that affects everyone in this
planet and we as humans, should start taking action in protecting our world. I think that it
should be taken seriously and not as something that can be stop once it gets worse than it
already is. As creatures of this planet we should be aware of what is going in our planet
and how can we make it healthy and save.

Global Warming

Global warming should be included in American’s cultural literacy because
this affects our nation just like others, we need to know the importance of this
issue, and start acting now by protecting the earth. Global warming should be
taken as a serious issue that is affecting not only our country but the world in
general. As Americans this should be part of something that we should be aware of
because we can start making this planet a better place not only for us, but for the
future generations. By us staring to contribute to the planet and making it a
healthier place to live on and we pass on the importance in taking care of this
planet to the next generations. It is important to apply this to our cultural literacy
because we should be aware of how is affecting the earth and the human race.

Global warming is something that is not only affecting the U.S but the
world in general. This issue should be taken seriously because in the last months
droughts and breaking records in temperatures across the continent of the United
States have been reported. In the article “Why we’re still so incredibly confused
about methane’s role in global warming” by Chris Mooney, he writes the
importance and the effects of global warming, he writes how many citizens don’t
know what is provoking it, and what should be done to solve this two issues. He
writes that the, “If the temperature peaks soon, say by the year 2050, then

controlling the warming caused by methane, and other short-lived climate
pollutants like black carbon, would mean a lower total peak temperature” (pg. 3).
Mooney is informing the audience about the importance of the temperature
change can affect and cause negative effects on the earth.

However, many don’t agree that global warming is something that is real or
some don’t even know that this catastrophic event is taking place in the present
time. In the article, “The False Alert of Global Warming” by Tom Bethell discusses
the motives behind the Global Warming movement. He believes that it’s a
movement provoked and designed from retired scientist and professors who
dedicated their lives to study science to gain more money than what they already
have. In page two he writes, “The claim that the globe is warming depends on
knowing earlier temperatures. Such information can only be obtained indirectly”
(pg. 2) meaning that this movement is to produce fear and provided inaccurate
data information to the public. He is arguing that Global Warming is not real and
that is invented by people, that in his opinion, aren’t very reliable. He views Global
Warming as something that should not be taken seriously and that if it is actually
happening it cannot be fix by the human race. He writes in his essay that, “The
warm period has been recognized in the climate textbooks for decades, and it was
an obvious embarrassment to those claiming that the 20th-century warming was a
true anomaly.” (pg. 1) meaning that he believes, like many others, that global
warming is one more invention from humanity. He isn’t willing able to accept that

Global Warming need to be included in the American cultural literacy ten
years from now because as humans we should care for this planet and be able to
pass it on to the next generations in the best conditions as possible. I chose this
contemporary issue as my topic because I believe that it is just recently being given
the importance that it should have had from the start. I want want others to
realize that this is an issue that not only affects the United Sates but the world in
general. The earth is our only home and we should take care of it because it is not
just my home but the home of everyone in this planet.
