IS GLOBAL WARMING OUR CONCERN OR NOT?

Global warming and climate change represent current topics that are approached in many articles, conferences, agreements, etc. Even though the terms ”global warming” and ”climate change” are sometimes used as synonyms, global warming refers to the long-term warming of the planet and represents only one aspect of climate change. The extreme weather - heat waves, storms, droughts, and floods - that was observed in the last period all over the world is considered to be the result of climate change. The opinions regarding this subject are different; therefore there appear to be arguments: some believe that global warming is a natural process while others think that it`s the result of human activity, especially the burning of fossil fuels, which led to CO2 incresead concentration. Each of them has their own perspectives and motivations and attempts convincing public opinion through mass media and social media platforms. Contradiction itself is the main "tool of human evolution", so this dispute should be seen as a step forward in discovering in detail what changes our planet is undergoing.

Abstract

Global warming and climate change represent current topics that are approached in many articles, conferences, agreements, etc. Even though the terms ”global warming” and ”climate change” are sometimes used as synonyms, global warming refers to the long-term warming of the planet and represents only one aspect of climate change. The extreme weather - heat waves, storms, droughts, and floods - that was observed in the last period all over the world is considered to be the result of climate change. The opinions regarding this subject are different; therefore there appear to be arguments: some believe that global warming is a natural process while others think that it`s the result of human activity, especially the burning of fossil fuels, which led to CO2 incresead concentration. Each of them has their own perspectives and motivations and attempts convincing public opinion through mass media and social media platforms. Contradiction itself is the main "tool of human evolution", so this dispute should be seen as a step forward in discovering in detail what changes our planet is undergoing.
