environmental science essay

Global warming is a serious problem on the earth. My opinion on what causes global warming is that it is happening due human activities. I believe this because people everyday contributes to these emissions by driving their cars, spraying hair spray, chopping down trees, and ect. Although we contribute the most to global warming, natural causes such as volcanoes all contribute to the cause.
My opinion towards global warming hasn’t really changed but it has made me think more about the natural causes that contribute to global warming. Recently the volcano named Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland erupted. That is causing the atmosphere to have my emissions to global warming, especially since lasted for some weeks.
I feel this way about global warming because of all the information that I have looked up for the causes. Humans commit to most of the emissions. “Fossil fuel use, agriculture, and land-use change are fundamentally affecting the systems on our planets,” Achim Steiner.” () These things are done or humans by humans. “Pollution comes in many shapes and sizes. Burning fossil fuels is one thing that causes pollution. Fossil fuels are fuels made of organic matter such as coal, or oil. When fossil fuels are burned they give off a green house gas called CO2.”(). Humans contribute to the emission of burning fossil fuels everyday by driving their cars.
