Climate Change and
Climate Change Controversy
Climate change is one of
the substantial issues of the 21st century, yet it continues to be
deeply contested by different parties. Journalists are constantly struggling to
provide sustainable coverage of the changes in this complex scientific field. Scientists
and researchers are also facing significant challenges in tackling the issue of
climate change that is faced by multiple controversies (Colston et al. 256).
There is a lack of congruency amongst researchers and scientists concerning the
cause or origin of climate change. Some scientists have attributed climate
change to human activities that have enormously impacted the events witnessed
today in the natural environment. Climate change controversies are developed
through a lack of comprehension of the underlying causes of global warming due
to the provision of contradictory reports and observations concerning climate
change and global warming.
Arguably, the planet has experienced
various changes in colder and warmer periods, unlike how it was in the past.
The first controversy involved with the climate changes experienced on the
earth is that they are not related to any human activity. The misleading
argument, which is also controversial, holds that the earth had experienced warmer
periods even before the commencement of the industrial revolution, which is
responsible for producing enormous amounts of carbon dioxide into the
atmosphere (Mascareño
et al. 2). Scientific reports support the controversial argument
mentioned above. Scholars mention that the average increase in global
temperatures that has taken place in the last century can be accounted for by
natural factors alone. A select group of scientists and researchers hold that
the earth is a complex entity influenced by numerous things, which have a
significant role to play in increasing global temperatures attributed to
adverse climate change impacts.
