Global Warming and Politics
Abstract: Global warming is being used as a political tool to push through governmental policies. The use of propaganda by the media along with the over-use of abbreviations, global warming and climate change is lending a helping hand to numerous political agendas. The media uses numerous auditory and visual tactics to portray “doom and gloom” situations (Colson, 2009). There is no argument that the Earth’s climate is changing as it has numerous times before. The other issues should be addressed, such as motives, education and stewardship. You should seriously question upcoming political policies such as the Kyoto protocol and the cap and trade systems that are being pushed. Implementing these ideas will not only damage the United States economy but will also harm the poorer countries that are in the developmental process.
