I need a good hook for my global warming essay?

Question

My thesis: Human acitvities such as deforestation, burning fossil fuels and transportation emissions have caused warmer climate changes.

Answer 1

Just set the scene.

Talk about (in very figuative, descriptive language) what it would be like if the sea water rose enough to cover manhattan and how chaotic it would be if there were millions upon millions of environmental refugees all over the world.

Answer 2

It’s getting warm, it’s getting hot

Despite all those that say it’s not

Way up north, if you’re a bear,

And look for ice, there is none there.



Farther north, where fur seals play

And polar bears seek lunch each day

The polar ice does disappear

There's less and less each passing year.

Coming next, to a neighborhood near you.

Answer 3

Use some of the graphs from the IPCC presentations.  I believe they can be copy-pasted, and they are very visual.

There is one great page with the statement:

"Warming of the climate system is unequivocal"  with graphs showing changes in the globlal temperatures and rise in sea level.

Answer 7

Global Warming is the hook.

The Earth has been warmer and cooler than it is now without human intervention many thousands of times.

Answer 8

Where do you live? You can talk about how AGW would affect your home town.

i.e. if you live in the florida keys:

In 100 years, The Florida Keys, our homes, [etc.], and even [monument in Florida Keys] will be underwater.

In 100 years, polar bears will be . . .

In 100 years, . . .

[Etc.]

All of this because of AGW.
