Climate Change
Climate change or Global warming is defined as any long-term significant change in the average temperature of any region in the world. It can happen over the course of decades or the course millions of decades but the fact remains that it does happen. Climate change happens with or without the presence of humans and it has happened since the beginning of the world. The question isn’t whether or not climate change is happening it’s if humans have an impact on it. Many scientist bring up the fact of greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are gases that block in the heat of the sun that would regularly pass out of our atmosphere. This is called the greenhouse effect. Another thing greenhouse gases do is eat a hole in the ozone layer. The ozone layer is a protective layer composed gases that help block out the sun rays. These Occurrences are believed to trigger climate change. This change in temperature can lead to glaciers melting, ocean waters rising and a span of many other problems. Climate change is a real problem that deserves a real solution. Climate change has become a subject of debate within today’s society thus, the current presidential candidates are addressing it in ways they think are best.
