Research Topic

While searching for a topic do to for my research paper, I found many interesting environmental issues. One very popular issue is global warming. I think I want to take a look further into this issue. There is so much information provided for this topic. I am not sure what aspects I want to focus on yet but I have some ideas. Global warming is the increase of average temperature of the earth's atmosphere, with an sustained increase it can affect the climate causing it to change. Global warming is caused by greenhouse effect. Looking at this definition makes me wonder what all causes greenhouse effect and what these climate changes could possibly do to the earth years from now. I feel people do not really care what it is doing because the bad effects will occur so much later, that they will not be here and it won't affect them, but to me it will. Doing something about global warming now can help the future earth. I do not really know much about this topic but I am interested in researching it further and learning about ways to stop it.

When reading information about global warming I found a website that had many interesting facts and even stated that the effects of global warming are showing now in our climate. It said that average temperature has risen. This is kind of scary, thinking that if global warming keeps increases that the earth's temperature could keep getting hotter. The temperature of the earth could keep rising and effect other things like animals and plants. I know that some of these things are already happening and it could really effect out earth. I am interesting in doing research on this topic and further discussing some things I could focus on in my paper. I think I might focus on these effects and ways to slow or even stop global warming in my paper. I am not positive if I'm going to be focusing on this but these are a few ideas I have. Any comments?
