I need assistance with this assignment:

Global climate change is one of the important issues in the world. It is not only a physical issue, but also an issue involving politics and cultural aspects of our society. Global climate is always changing. We have seen historical changes that due to natural mechanisms. For the current changes (mainly temperature increase), what is critical today is the degree to which we can relate global warming with the rise in the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.To what degree are our activities – particularly burning fossil fuels, are responsible for the global climate change? This is where the real debate started. Environmentalists firmly believe that it is human being’s activities mainly causing the recent global warming; while some others dispute this and believes that the recent fluctuation of climate is a natural process rather than human induced. Geography is a great discipline for studying such a topic as nature-culture relations is one of the core fields in Geography. Confronting global climate change must take both human and nature into consideration.Review the information here and in the links, as well as in the slides, do some web searches if needed, and respond to the following questions:

  • Do you agree that climate change is happening and it is an issue that mainly caused by human activities? if not happening, provide details.
