Global Warming Visual

For my extended argument, I am writing about the debate of global warming. The above graph shows the changes in global temperature, sea level and Northern Hemisphere snow cover. The graph shows that from the years 1850-2000, global temperature and the sea level have increased while the Northern Hemisphere snow cover has decreased. Such information would be useful in my paper in that it shows that there has been a change in our climate which helps support the idea that global warming does exist

That is a good point to make about the graph showing evidence that global warming does exist. If you do use this picture I would make sure that it is a reputable source. Very intersting I think your paper will be intersting to read.

This is a useful visual aid, but remember the counterargument from people who deny the severity of global warming: namely, that the temperature of the earth has fluctuated greatly throughout history. We could just be in a warming cycle, they might say. How do you repudiate that argument?
