Global Warning Rough Draft
Global Warming is an issue many people dismiss. It effects every part of our sick planet. The Cause of global warming are the burning of fossil fuels and trees, and the deforestation that is happening.
Some might dispute that there is no real evidence but they need to be aware or beware. “an increase of 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) from the average global temperature recorded just before the Industrial Revolution kicked into gear. (This translates into an increase of 1.3 degrees Fahrenheit above the Earth's current average temperature, about 59 degrees.)”(nytimes.com). Not only that but under the conditions of the Kyoto Protocol, the rich countries are suppose to send money to the poorer countries so they can develop more green resources. The money sent should have been in the tens of billions but they were in the millions. Ironically Enough, the countries that caused the most of this problem are better able to protect themselves from the results. The Fast growing economic powerhouses led by China and India oppose on mandatory obligations to curb their emissions they say they will do what they can to rein in growth of emissions…. As long their economies don’t suffer.
There is several solutions that are being developed and are possible but the solutions are one really. One solution is for nuclear power plants to be more common. They give more power than current power plants and have no Carbon Dioxide emissions. Also electric vehicles with nuclear power would help. Another solution would for there to be more plants such as growing in cities and safely growing on houses. As we all most likely know Photosynthesis requires Carbon Dioxide to work and Oxygen is releases. Solar energy is a possible solution but the solar panels around currently aren’t very effective but they’re a solution but not practical and costly.
Both the costs and benefits are very high. On one hand it will take billions perhaps trillions of dollars for all this Carbon Dioxide to stop being produced and to be reduced. On the other hand there will be green energy some that are cheap or even free in the end the benefits outweigh the costs for they will save money.

1. I feel that my paper is decent but lacking something in the structure. And needs to be longer.
2. What remains to be done is mla stuff and lengthing and edition and a call to action
3. Is the tone good?
