  1. I think I can help a little.  I was a college student once upon a time and I took a class on enviromental science.  Here are some issues that happen to the envrioment:  

    Point source pollution is when, according to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), is “any single identifiable source of pollution from which pollutants are discharged such as a pipe”.  There is also another form of pollution that affects the ocean called Nonpoint source pollution.  This is when water from rainfall and snowmelt flows over and through the landscape, it picks up and carries contaminants from many different sources.  These pollutions kills ocean life, it can get tangled among animals swimming in the ocean, humans can get affected by eating the fish or ocean life animals which can cause illnesses.  

    Salt water intrusion:

    When sea water enters into fresh water along the coast

    Aquifer depletion:

    The removal of ground water faster than it can be refilled by rain or melting snow

    Estuaries:

    When rivers empty into seawater and resources are depleted because the wetlands are a breeding ground for species of animals and it reduces productivitiy.

    Coastal development:

    When buildings are built over salt marshes and swamps

    Climate change:

    When things like reefs are destroyed because of increasing temperatures

    The releasing of carbon oxides and dioxides are through pollution of the air.

    Global warming is the mixture of oxides by humans and the earth naturally going through a warming stage

    hope i helped even if it's a little


  2. The majority of Web sites and information still call it "Global Warming".  This term has proven far too controversial, since not even the scientific communities can find a general consensus on it.

        More Groups and Organizations are using "Weather" or "Environmental" as the key phrases, since some of these are definitely identifiable and easily validated. They are "Weather Anomalies".  Weather conditions that have "not" occurred or been seen/documented in recorded history.

        Yes, it is a natural cycle of nature and nothing we or any country can do to stop it. Whether man accelerated it or not, is major moot point.

  3. Global warming has no concrete evidence to prove it.

    Global warming is just a natural cycle dated hundred of million years ago.
