Introduction

For all the many debates in today's world, few are as widespread or prevalent to as many people as global warming. Global warming has had a huge impact on the planet already, and the issue is only growing in size. Already temperatures are increasing, storms are growing more intense, sea levels are rising, ice caps are melting, and species everywhere are being affected by the world's newly changing climate. Global warming is an issue of constant discussion, with perpetually circulating conversations about clean energy, greenhouse gases, fuel efficient cars, and carbon dioxide emissions.
In Earth's history, there have been constant fluctuations in global climate and temperature. However, the current state of the world's climatic cycle is different this time around. There is a new factor to pull into the equation- people. With newly evolving technologies and machinery, humans greatly contribute to the concentration of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and therefore add to the rising rate of global warming.
However, there are many that disagree as to whether or not global warming is actually a problem. They don't believe that global warming has had anything to do with human activity, and so it is not an issue that people need to move against.They call it simply a part of the natural climate cycle.
