For Further Research

For further research on the topic of global warming, I would recommend the following three sources:

1. UN News
The United Nations (I.e. UN) is an intergovernmental organization (I.e. IGO) that seeks to harmonize actions of member states and resolve common issues. UN News examines a wide range of issues including climate change, health and the SDGs (I.e. Sustainable Development Goals). This IGO also categorizes issues by geographical location such as Africa, Americas, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Europe making it easier to search for specific events and topics.

2. NASA News
NASA is one of the best climate research institutes in the world. Their mission is "Global Climate Change: Vital Signs of the Planet". Here you can find some of the latest news, technical data and innovative solutions.

3. WWF News
World Wildlife Fund (I.e. WWF) not only focuses on climate change, but the effect it has on the biosphere. This nongovernmental organization (NGO) has six global goals including: freshwater, forests, oceans, wildlife, food and climate and energy. 

 4. IPCC News
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is an organization under the UN that specializes in evaluating the science of climate change. This site provides many useful reports, activities and news.

They began by illustrating the tremendous catastrophes countries and people experienced in 2018 like the massive wildfires in California due to an increase in droughts. The main cause of the predicted rapid increase of global warming is a result of the increase of greenhouse gases and decrease of air pollution (Xu, Ramanathan, & Victor, 2018). This decrease of air pollution plays a vital role in shading the Earth's surface from the sun. The problem is that emissions are accelerating. These specialists warn that global warming needs to stop at a 1.5 degrees Celsius increase, instead of the 2.0 degrees Celsius increase as proposed in the Paris Agreement (Xu, Ramanathan, & Victor, 2018). This excess 0.5 degrees Celsius increase could cause a horrific increase in natural disasters and h...
