Can someone help me with my thesis on global warming?

Question

Thesis: Have you ever tried to cook an egg on the ground outside? This maybe possible with the temperature at about 110 degrees. For the past 50 years, "global warming", have significally effected our lives from apparent trends in the climate, indicating that the planet is heating up. Global warming is a man made outcome how we have become so industrialized, which scientist are still studied for us to fix it, making predictions on what's going to happen in the future, and learning how serious of a matter this is for man kind.

Answer 1

try looking up you info on the greenhouse effect before you continue the greenhouse effect was the old words for it then when it became a more evident problem they changed the name Now people are saying it is a hoax and the planet mars is a good place to start as well.  the size of leaves would be a better test if you had a real old leaf collection maybe 25 years old and a new one you might just point out the size change over time.

Answer 2

I wouldn't use the egg thing.  I cooked an egg on a rock about 30 years ago in the boy scouts, and I bet you could do it 2000 years ago.  Even if the temperature outside were only in the 80's or whatever, the intensity of the sunlight heats the rock to the point of making fying an egg possible.  The outside temperature will usually be 'high' but is only incidental, in other words.

And I don't want to sound like a jerk, but you really need to work on your grammar if you expect any thesis to be taken seriously.

Answer 3

Sorry I wont accept U R thesis that we can cook the egg on the ground outside when the temperature is 110degrees because every year during the month of May here in TAMILNADU almost most of the places measure upto 110degrees so much hot here even though they are talking about cold it is not at all cold here in madras its hot hot and always round the year hot.

I'm not disagreeing with anyone here;however I won't agree with everyone either. I'm no scientist but I do know that science teaches us things that we cannot readily see. A for instance: you don't measureably see how the rubber wears on your car tires or your shoes, but they do wear.Time-lapse film caprures events like this. Nowadays its computers and data analysis that is used.The trouble here is that computers haven't been around too long on a historical scale.

  I personally think its a combination of events.Global warming is here: there's no doubt about that. As to what causes it there's many theories. The theory i'm inclined to believe the most (being a total scientific lehman), is the theory of the oceans warming. Since the oceans cover 3/4 of the earth's surface its hard to ignore their significance on global warming. I believe the oceans temperatures are rising slightly. I believe scientific evidence points to a 1/4 deg. warming since the 1950's. This doesn't sound like much ;however this is happening globally. What it is exactly that is causing the warming isn't known.Manmade,geologic,astrologic, who knows for sure.Could the doubling of earths population in the last 30 years have something to do with it? How about the industrial activity of same? Perhaps one of those huge earthquakes the world had had has changed the shape of one of the earths tectonic plates , allowing more heat from the earths mantle onto them. Perhaps the close passing-by of one of those comets has contributed in some way.

Whatever the cause: it's hard to ignore the facts. there is warming on a global scale.

Here's a little home experiment for you to do......If it snows where you live , take a saucepan and fill it full of snow.Pack it down once or twice to compact it ,but don't make it snowball material.Then stick it on your stove under a very low heat. the similarities to what happens to it  and what is happening to the arctic & anartic ice caps are striking.

Answer 5

The issue is about climate change which is a natural part of the Earth and has been ongoing since the rocks first cooled billions of years ago.

You might want to point out that on the same sidewalk that you can use to cook an egg today is laid over the site of great glaciers that once covered most of the planet.

It was climate change that made it possible for the Eurasian natives to cross from Siberia to Alaska across the Bering Strait. The first Americans hunted large wooly mammoths over much of the planet. Those Ice Ages have come and gone. The wooly mammoth did not drive a Chevy Blazer or use incandescent light bulbs.

It was also climate change that allowed the Romans to spread throughout Europe so comfortably. Climate change helped spread the disease that caused the Irish potato famines and launched massive emigration to the US and much of the world.

Mankind's history has consistently been shaped by climate change even long before coal-fired electric generators.
