“The Five Fingers of Global Destruction” A short satirical screenplay by L. Saracini Copyright © 2014 By L. Saracini Synopsis: Two friends, Mr. Donoti and Mr. Noel, have an appointment to meet for a drink in a bar somewhere on the northern hemisphere during the month of July. Mr. Donoti is first to arrive. He is sitting in a typical local bar holding a glass and a cigarette and waits for his close friend Mr. Noel to arrive. Although it is summer, outside is pouring with rain and it feels cold. Dark clouds have covered the city. Watching the weather storm outside, Mr. Donoti knows this is only the start of something much worse, but his thoughts are disrupted by the arrival of Mr Noel. Following a discussion with Mr. Donoti while having a drink at the …show more content…
How heat is trapped 4. Phytoplankton 5. Final consequence: Ocean Currents and Oxygen - Death How simple, you will be able to understand everything in only five simple parts for the entire explanation. How lucky you are!? Mr. Noel smiles shaking his head (some sections of the following paragraphs are said sarcastically and comically by the actor. In the foreground and while the actor speaks, there are great images and visual effects showing the consequences of everything said in coordination with the movement of Mr. Donoti’s hands, such as extreme weather, increase of sea level, explanation on warming and cooling effects on the planet, phytoplankton and stoppage of the Ocean currents with all the consequences.) Mr. DONOTI: Let’s start then. These are the Global Warming consequences really, such as the first, Numero Uno, big problem caused by Global Warming is: Extreme weather. Well it is a fact that Global Warming causes more extreme weather. More winds, more tornados and hurricanes, since the air warms, warm air raises, this causes the cold air to replace it in the region where the heated air was, and this causes the air circulation, and more winds, as more air heats more
A few months ago, strange, frigid weather was sweeping across the nation. Some places saw their first snowfall in eight years. Other cities ended up being colder than cities that were closer to the North Pole. Scientists believe that this is because of global warming. Some people don’t believe that this weird weather means that global warming is a serious thing: “Some question how it could be so cold if the planet is heating up.
The power of the hurricane depends on how rapidly water can evaporate from the ocean. Evaporation transfers heat from the ocean into the atmosphere. Since Global warming is happening and is a very important subject to this day there is a lot of evaporation happening when there is a hurricane. Climate change will increase the amount of devastation due to hurricanes as sea levels rise because of global warming Hurricanes are the most popular in the
After living away from home for nearly 20 years. He visits a bar from his youth and converses with the locals only to find out that his childhood friends and acquaintances had died. This mirrors a death within himself that he unwillingly accepts. He develops an apprehensive and bitter attitude and becomes critical of his surroundings. However he eventually realizes that his disappointment is futile and cannot change what has become of his beloved hometown.
Hurricanes and other storms are likely to become stronger (“Effects of Global Warming”). If we lose people to hurricanes and storms already, why would we want to cause more deaths and more casualties? Just because side effects of global warming aren't hitting us as much as they will be hitting us soon, it doesn't mean they can be lost floating in the wind that the AC blows throughout the
For example, during Weaver’s lecture, he explains how the change in climate could lead to new pests and diseases being introduced to an area. This would have negative consequences to the affected environment as the individuals are unprepared to tackle these new species. Furthermore, if all of the Earth’s ice melted, then cities such as Amsterdam and Miami would be submerged into the water, making the land uninhabitable. As a result, those citizens would have to move to other cities which would have financial consequences to families that are forced to move as they must find another place for shelter. Furthermore, cities that are not submerged will probably be overpopulated by the migrating citizens.
Almost anyone who will read this essay has undoubtedly heard of the climate phenomenon Global warming. Global warming is a topic that gets discussed very often nowadays, most notably during political debate and discussion. Politicians use certain stances on global warming to appeal to voter’s emotions and logic in order to gain votes and support for their campaign, however climate change is nothing new, during the past several hundred thousand years the Earth has heated up and cooled down and even experienced so called “ice ages”, which is a period where glacial deposits located at the northern and southern hemispheres have grown due to dramatic global cool downs. Don’t be confused by climate terminology though, the global warming so widely
They agree that another degree increase will cause problems for most people." (BGE) People are releasing more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere now than ever. (BGE)This is greatly speeding up the process of global warming. The most important consequence of climate change is the average temperature of the earth increasing because of the Arctic melting, lack of resources, and habitat loss.
They arrive in a small town as the sun rises to its peak in the summer sky, heat beating on their backs and sweat forming on their brows. Nero had long ditched his suit jacket to the back of the cart but Avilio had insistently kept to wearing his long coat, leading Nero to believe that the man had wanted a place to hide his weapons. Of all the people Nero has known in his life, Avilio was definitely one of the more cautionary men he had become acquainted to. “I’m going to go buy food. Don’t get drunk.”
IMPACTS OF GLOBAL WARMING ON THE ENVIRONMENT SLINDILE.C MAZIBUKO 215011983 UNIVERSITY OF KWAZULU NATAL WESTVILLE CAMPUS DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA ABSTRACT One of the biggest problems facing the world today is global warming. It is evident that there is climate change around the world. In recent years, we have so many unusual hurricanes, typhoons, floods, droughts and earthquakes. Plants and animals that lived in the cold climates are now disappearing.
Second reason that cause hurricane is the global warming, you might didn 't know that the climate change can lead to the storm and another natural disaster. According to a research of George Tselioudis, a research scientist at NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) and Columbia University, global warming will increase and also decrease the temperature such as in the equator a temperature is hot and dry. On the other hand, temp in the pole
Global warming can cause many changes in our environment. Polar ice caps can start to melt which can cause rising sea levels and can easily lead to coastal flooding on the eastern seaboard. There can also be affects on the types of storms that can occur if global warming continues. Scientists say that category three storms can turn into a more dangerous category fours. Farms and cities will face new pests, heatwaves, heavy downpours, and increased flooding.
Statement of Problem I. What are the causes of global warming? II. How is it affecting our environment? III. How can we minimize the activities responsible for global warming?
Polar ice caps are melting, sea level is rising, wet places are drying, cold places are warmer, all of these things are caused by Global Warming. What is Global Warming? you might ask. Well Global Warming is a slow rising of the earth’s overall temperature. This means that it isn’t a drastic change and the world’s climate is getting heated up in a week.
Perhaps less obvious but no less ominous a threat to the environment are the general increase in temperatures worldwide and the resulting climate changes. This phenomenon, known as global warming, could have serious negative effects on humans and all other living things on Earth. Global warming is a complex problem, and governments have had great difficulty deciding how to address it. Some people think that it is the work of the world where nothing we do can ether change it or anything we do will prevent it. While others say that the
The Day After Tomorrow is a catastrophe based movie which depicted the causes of the destruction of countries worldwide due to global warming and the consequences that were faced by the citizens of the
