Paper Summary:

This paper begins with a formal definition of global warming and then launches into a discussion of its primary causes and its effects. The paper concludes by briefly examining what measures can be taken to prevent global warming.

From the Paper:

"There are many theories about the causes of global warming. The most well -known is the greenhouse effect. This theory states that global warming is caused mainly by the anthropogenic or human generated output of carbon dioxide. The theory also takes into account increases in temperature due to solar activity. ( ibid) In essence global warming "results primarily from human activities that release heat-trapping gases and particles into the air." (ibid) The most common causes of the increase in temperature are gas emissions due to the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, gas, and oil."
