Putting My Experience to Work.
For A Better Future
Our country is sharply divided against itself from many different points of view. My views upon our country and economy's problems remain clear, it is occurring and it will continue to occur until people decide to act upon it. Some people believe we should start worrying less about foreign problems and be more self-aware of domestic problems. However, one thing is for certain. We should focus more on research for the advancing of medical supplies, create suitable living conditions for both the young and old, and create better lives in which education, food, and shelter are worries of the past. Together, we can create a better world. And for the first time n human history, we can start the process of world peace.

What Needs to be Done About Global Warming.
Global Warming And What Needs To Be Done.
Global warming through the years has been a discussion in which no one has had a full on conclusion to in this day in age. In this argument, I will be talking about how global warming has been getting worse over time by our continued use of fossil fuels and combustible resources including our contribution to pollution and the possibility that governments are hiding the knowledge of true effects of global warming. We should take the initiative to help reverse decades of damage that we have caused to the earth before it’s too late. Global warming over the years, of course, has gotten worse. Under our current emissions, we might exceed the two-degree warming limit established by the 'Paris Climate Agreement' (an agreement sponsored by the United Nations) as early as the 2030s, or a generation soon after. The use of fossil fuels has contributed to this for decades. A 1988 document titled, “The Greenhouse Effect” features Shell’s extensive knowledge of climate change and what might happen in the future. The document includes this brief note of precaution: “However, by the time global warming becomes detectable, it could be too late to take effective countermeasures to reduce the effects or even to stabilize the situation.” (Shell climate documents, 2017, p.3-5). We have been creating pollution for many decades, and because of this, our planet is suffering from all the greenhouse gasses in which humans and other affiliated organisms contribute. Instead of using fossil fuels, we should try using alternative fuels such as solar energy, hydraulic energy, wind energy and other non-polluting sources of energy. Fossil fuel companies also have to change from Gas and oil to solar or turbine farms in which could increase the supply and the demand. It will also create a cleaner and brighter future. Our governments for many years may have hidden the effects of global warming. “The U.S Government provides at least $775 billion to $1 trillion yearly to support fossil fuel businesses, not including other costs of fossil fuels associated to climate change, environmental impacts, military conflicts, and health impacts “(Fossil fuel subsidies, 2019, p.8-10). So, if our Governments would stop providing the money, industries will instead lose money at a dramatically fast rate. As a comparison, the current Trump administration spends only “35.2 billion” in total to support the “Department of Energy in the areas of nuclear security, clean energy, environmental cleanup, climate change response and science and innovation.” (energy.gov) This figure is only 4.2% of the amount of money that was previously stated above for fossil fuel companies. |
President Trump during his election campaign said, "global warming is a Hoax”. After he was elected, Hillary Clinton accused the Trump administration of trying to hide a report. “The Trump administration tried to bury a federally-mandated climate change study by releasing it the Friday after Thanksgiving. Here's what they didn't want you to hear:” (BBC News 2019) So what was actually on the mandated climate change study?
It states in The Fourth National Climate Assessment-"Without substantial and sustained global mitigation and regional adaptation efforts, climate change is expected to cause growing losses to American infrastructure and property and impede the rate of economic growth over this century." Nonetheless, sometimes there is misinformation that is created by companies and other online sources in which try to feed false information to many social media and fake news articles that are designed to obscure the public and cause doubt about climate change. As an example, some people may say how scientist are incorrect in their findings. And that they don’t have enough evidence to prove this. To stop global warming, People need to have the initiative to change what we have already done. Fossil fuel corporations like Shell must find cleaner alternatives of gas, and the government must have the motivation to substitute fossil fuels in America and around the globe. |
