According to Johnson (2010), the issue of climate change has been hotly debated from two main viewpoints: that global warming has resulted from human activity on the one hand; and that it is a myth resulting from flawed research and unverified scientific findings.

The other side, in turn, are of the opinion that the public is far too susceptible to believe whatever they are told as soon as the scientific label is placed on it. Because of these two widely divergent opinions, the issue has been shrouded in uncertainty for many, with a third group believing that global warming does exist, but that human activity is not necessarily the main culprit. This opinion holds that natural events such as volcanic activity creates far more heat and greenhouse effects than human activity could hope to achieve. Hence, this group holds that there is little that can be done about what is essentially a natural process.
In my view, global warming is an issue that should be taken seriously. When considering the way in which politicians...
Indeed, if I myself were a person of power benefitting from the industry, I might myself be disinclined to create a solution-oriented approach to global warming and other environmental concerns. Even if global warming were, as the third group holds, mainly the result of natural events, this still does not mean that human activity is not harming the planet. I do not need a scientific paper to convince me of the crisis that environmental pollution has become. Countless human, animal, and plant lives are in danger because of industrial processes.
