I. Global Warming is the single biggest environmental crisis of our time. The earth’s atmosphere is overloaded with heat. Trapping carbon dioxide which threatens the climate with disastrous consequences. II. The earth is warming, and human activity is the primary cause. III. Climate disruption puts our food, water supply, our health and our basic human needs at risk. IV. Some impacts of global warming are record high temp. In months that should be cooler, and the seasons are change more quickly then they should. Which causes glacier melting’s, severe flooding and droughts in the United States and around the country.

I. This current cycle of global warming is changing the rhythm of our climate that all living have come to rely on today. A. When I did my audience analysis I asked if you knew what global warming was and if you thought it was a problem. Everyone knew about global warming or a list if had something today with our world changing. B. But what most people don’t know is that global warming or is one of the most serious public health threats in our nation. This health concern affects the most vulnerable which is our children, the elderly, and communities in poverty. II. Global warming is not just a health problem but much more. It affects our climate and our natural resources. A. One of the first things scientist has learned is that greenhouse gases are responsible for climate warming. Like co2 a. Humans emit them in many ways; most comes from us driving cars, factories, and electricity production. b. Now you may be wondering what is greenhouse gases. Power point pic.
B .these destroys the ozone layer. a. You see the ozone layer is a shield that protects the earth from uv rays that come off the sun. b. So every time we emit to mush co2 (carbon dioxide) by smoking, driving cars, and fires it depletes our ozone. Once the ozone is gone no one will be able to go outside without getting sun burned right off the bat and getting skin cancer. III. Another big effect is climate change will have a bid impact on water supply in the coming decades A. A new system performed by consulting firm Tetra Tech for the natural resource defense council. Examined the effects global warming on water supply in the United States. B. The study found that over one thousand counties, one third of the counties in the lower states will face higher risk of water shortages by the mid-century. C. More than 400 of these counties will face extremely high risks of water shortages (show pic) IV. Our country is at a crossroad: the USA can act responsibly and seize the opportunity to lead by developing new solution as was as putting to use the many practical solutions we have at our disposal today. V. So what will we do to slow this warming? Here are some solutions that are easy to do to help stop global warming. A. Reduce, reuse, recycle: Do your part to reduce waste by choosing reusable products instead of disposables. Buying products with minimal packaging (including the economy size when that makes sense for you) will help to reduce waste. And whenever you can, recycle paper, plastic, newspaper, glass and aluminum cans. If there isn't a recycling program at your workplace, school, or in your community, ask about starting one. By recycling half of your household waste, you can save 2,400 pounds of carbon dioxide annually. B. Use less heat and air conditioning: Adding insulation to your walls and attic, and installing weather stripping or caulking around doors and windows can lower your heating costs more than 25 percent, by reducing the amount of energy you need to heat and cool your home.
Turn down the heat while you're sleeping at night or away during the day, and keep temperatures moderate at all times. Setting your thermostat just 2 degrees lower in winter and higher in summer could save about 2,000 pounds of carbon dioxide each year. C. Change a light Bulb: Wherever practical, replace regular light bulbs with compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs. Replacing just one 60-watt incandescent light bulb with a CFL will save you $30 over the life of the bulb. CFLs also last 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs, use two-thirds less energy, and give off 70 percent less heat. D. Use the “off” switch: Save electricity and reduce global warming by turning off lights when you leave a room, and using only as lighter as you need. And remember to turn off your television, video player, stereo and computer when you're not using them.
It's also a good idea to turn off the water when you're not using it. While brushing your teeth, shampooing the dog or washing your car, turn off the water until you actually need it for rinsing. You'll reduce your water bill and help to conserve a vital resource. E. Plant a tree and encourage others to do these other solutions.

Conclusion:
These few solutions to stopping global warming will take us toward reducing our energy. Less energy use means less dependence on the fossil fuels that create greenhouse gases and contribute to global warming. If we don’t use these solution right now then my next century we will not have a beautiful world we have today.
