For the most part, we cannot reasonably deny that the Earth has gotten warmer (even though not by much). In this thread, address why you think we should, or should not be concerned. Again, use logic and provide support for your thinking when you can rather than just ranting and raving.

Climate change is a more general term for the changing climate of the earth, global warming is more specific in that it tells which direction the change is happening. Climate change could be either warmer or colder....global warming says we are getting warmer.
those of you who might want to jump on Jocelyns post, make sure you read the article for yourself.

I think anything can be possible with this. But maybe we should take care of some of the things on earth.

www.seakeepers.org/featured-plankton.phpThis link connects to an article on plankton and how the increasing temperature affect them and how the decrease in plankton will affect our environment. It seems that whether global warming is due to humans or not, there are problems.

This website explaines alot but in the ocean wait........ Global warming is a gas right so would the gas just go back down because of the pressure of the water

global warming is not a gas, some believe it is caused by greenhouse gases. But global warming is a process.

Honestly I don't believe in global warming. Seriously the Earth has been like that before, and we didn't have factories, cars, or hairspray. I still think that people should take recycle without the idea of it, not just because they are scared of something.

I still think that people should take recycle without the idea of it, not just because they are scared of something. I agree with Karissa because global warming has been happening for millions of years and it has only increased like 3 degrees besides wouldn't the temperature be warmer all over the globe because the tempurature affects the climate and the climate affects the earths tempurature. And I read the NASA website also and they say its just a climate change and its nothing really that drastic. But if in the past 50 years the pollution wouldn't have gone up because of cars and aerosol spray cans we wouldn't have to worry about the ozone layer or global warming. |

I had to do a science project on global warming. Try looking up past and present views of glaciers, and charts showing the similarities between greenhouse emissions and temperature increase. Also, I read that (I didn't specifically research this part so I'm sorry if it is wrong) the scientists who say that global warming is not existent or that the gasses do not cause it are not atmospheric scientists (or whatever the job title is).
