                                                         GLOBAL WARMING


This video shares some essential information about global warming with us. In the beginning, it explicitly says that there is something really called global warming. The original words in the video that say this are : ''In the last century the planet's temperature has increased unusually fast. Scientists believe that it is human activity that drives the temperature up.'' Then, it continues with the possible reasons of it and says that ever since the industrial revolution began, factories, power plants and eventually cars using fuels such as coal have released huge amount of carbon dioxide and the other gases into the atmosphere. These greenhouse gases trapped near the Earth create naturally occuring process called greenhouse effect. Then, it explains the process by saying : ''The greenhouse effect begins with the sun and the energy radiates to the Earth. The Earth and the atmosphere absorb some of the energy; and other rest is radiated back to the space. Naturally ocurring gases in the atmosphere trap some of this energy and reflect it back in the Earth''. After that, it adds the belief of the scientists about this topic, and tells that scientists now believe greenhouse effect has been intensified by the extra greenhouse gases that humans have released. Lastly, it continues with the evidences for global warming and explains these evidences. For instance, it mentiones about recent warm years and says that scientists record that 1998 was the warmest year of the Earth history, and then it goes on clarifying the evidences.
As for my opinion, I can say that I believe these in reasons and evidences because I have been searching on this sucject for a long time and I reach to these conclusions like scientists. When it comes to the video, I have to say that I really like it so much since it explains the reasons and effects on the base of rationality and with proofs, and I believe that you probably like it :) Enjoy it !
