Climate Change Outline
The research question for this report will be just how settled the climate change debate is.
Mass majority of scientists agree that anthropogenic (human activity) global warming is contributing to at least some of the increase in temperature around the world
There is some disagreement, however, on how much of the temperature swings are man-induced and how much are naturally occurring.
The theories surrounding global temperature have evolved over the years
There was a period of time in the 1970's where scientists thought that the world was actually cooling. The subject even made the cover of Newsweek.
Through the use of ice cores, trees, dirt erosion patterns and so forth, the warming and cooling of recent millennia have been measured
The hottest recorded years in modern human history have occurred from the late 1990's until now
There have been temperature shifts back and forth for more than a dozen millennia.
Human history has been verified to go back at least two hundred thousand years but the data is very limited if one is going back any more than four to five thousand years due to the propensity for bodies, buildings and other items decaying over the years.
iv. The current period of warming, otherwise known as a Holocene, has been going on for nearly twelve thousand years. There have been minor temperature shifts throughout...
There have measured impacts on wildlife, plants and even humans as they try to live and survive
c. The political climate regarding climate change has been very hot and heavy in both the United States and around the rest of the world
i. There has been much talk of taxing and regulating carbon and other emissions.
ii. Some assert that the regulations and taxes are necessary so as to prevent the aggravation of weather events like hurricanes and to prevent rising sea levels. Sea levels, as an example, could wash away shorefront property and populaces around the world iii. There has also been a major political shift to energy technologies that are more efficient and earth-friendly
1. Examples of car technology would include battery-powered cars, cars that run on hydrogen fuel cells and those that run on natural gas. There are even fuels that are 85% corn, which is otherwise known as E-85.
2. Standard electricity examples would include the (controversial) use of nuclear, wind power, hydroelectric and so forth.
iv. Some political powers and advocates have suggested that the climate is entirely too complex for us to imagine, that it is too early in the research game to react and/or that global warming taxes…

Quality Development in Advanced Practice field knowledge in nursing: Proposal on Enhancing the dental health of children suffering Congenital Heart Disease One of the most prevalent development abnormalities found in children is heart disease, and it occurs in about 8-10 in every 1, 000 births. Dental supervision of children with congenital heart problems calls for special care, due to their increased susceptibility to contagious endocarditis, which is associated with bacteremia caused
Omnivore Dilemma-Pastoralism Put Your Title Here In All Caps Pastorilism Outline The research topic is pastorilism. Is pastorilism a viable alternative to sustainable living? Working thesis statement: This paper will suggest that although Pollan's ideas are sound in regards to the environment and health, activists who support his vision must address the 'elitism' that has tarred his vision of the future. Research plan: I plan on conducting much of my research online due to the access
Planning Proposal Duration of Class Room Lectures There is always a room for improvement and continuous improvement leads to successful development of organisations. Regardless of the type of organisation; educational institute, medical healthcare centre or profit oriented commercial organization, the need of controlling and improving always remains there. Keeping in view the mentioned point, this proposal is prepared to improve the conditions of an educational institute. Educational institutes are more important than any
The period of time that happens right after an offender is released is such a crucial time in the determination of whether a person is going to re offend or not. If the New Jersey state sentencing laws continue to go down the path that they are on, there is never going to be any reductions seen in the recidivism rates and the goal of public safety is never going
