Global Warming....I Mean Climate Change


              The issue of Global warming has been pushed on the American people for years now but it’s time to shed some light on that issue.  Although many scientist and political figures have been saying that Global warming is manmade it has yet to be proven.  Great amounts of money has been raised for this cause but its seems as though we were fooled, can people really blame themselves for it getting either really cold or really hot outside?   Either way we as a country have bigger issues right now and should stabilize the economy rather than spend money on the inevitable.

                People who are on the riding bandwagon of Global warming would argue that the use of fossil fuels are making the environment hotter, and melting the polar ice caps.  Artic ice is melting away making it harder for polar bears and other artic animals to survive.  Also there has been a lot of extreme weather due to the heat such as tropical storms and wildfires.  The environment is more important to save than the economy because if we don’t stop global warming we will have to deal with the consequences such as sea levels rising and more natural disasters.  The damage that the earth will suffer is not worth any amount of money.

                We should save the economy.  The economy in America hasn’t been the best as of late; we should put all of our focus into getting back into a financial space where we do not have to worry.  Global warming supporters have flip flopped lately they have changed their stance to talking about Climate Change which is a very different subject.  The climate has always changed throughout a number of years, there was the ice age when it was extremely cold, and then there were periods of time such as now when the earth has gotten hotter.  We as a people have to slow ourselves down from being so quick to panic and do what were told to.  The climate change going on in the world is normal it’s something that we have no control over and seemed to be pushed upon us to scare us into the government’s hands.  We need to study more about our world if Global warming is not manmade (which I believe it’s not) we should move on and focus on issues that we can actually solve.

  “They’re not talking about global warming anymore. They’re talking about “climate change.”

“But think about the real absurdity of fighting “climate change” – the new apocalyptic menace. As a political ax, it can’t be beat. Any variation in the weather represents a reason for controlling human behavior by any means necessary and to any extent necessary.”

The report, based on the work of some 2,500 scientists in more than 130 countries, concluded that humans have caused all or most of the current planetary warming. Human-caused global warming is often called anthropogenic climate change.”

“An upsurge in the amount of extreme weather events, such as wildfires, heat waves and strong tropical storms, is also attributed in part to climate change by some experts.”

  1. Dwayne,

    Nice piece. Concise and simple. But I want you to put these great quotes into your article. Yes, you list them as you do, but also, you need to insert them into your blog... so that your blog has more "facts".

    You've got the format down. You write an excellent paragraph, just insert more facts now to strengthen your argument. You have the facts at the bottom, now use them in your writing.
