Lab Research Report 2: Global Warming: Cause and Mitigation Due Week 9 and worth 170 points Among
 the most controversial topics in physical science, global warming has 
received a great deal of attention during the past decade. Given its 
great impacts on both humans and the environment, lawmakers and 
scientists must weigh heavily the information that they are presented. 
Explore this debate in more detail by evaluating both the scientific 
basis of this phenomenon and the human role in global warming. Write a three to five (3-5) page paper in which you: Compare and contrast natural versus anthropogenic climate changes. Include specific examples of each.Take
 a position as to whether or not global warming is taking place. Provide
 three (3) lines of evidence to support your position.Assess
 two (2) current mitigation strategies for global warming, such as 
carbon sequestration, carbon taxing, clean coal technology, higher fuel 
efficiency standards, and so on. Include a discussion on the 
effectiveness of this mitigation strategy, as well as its potential 
costs and policy implications.Speculate
 what policy changes you would propose to help stabilize global climate 
and which business sectors or nations would be held to more strict 
standards if you implement your proposed policies.Use at least four (4) quality resources in this assignment. Note:
 Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources. The
 body of the paper must have in-text citations that correspond to the 
references. Your report must follow these formatting requirements: Be
 typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with 
one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA 
or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional 
instructions.Include
 a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s 
name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover 
page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment 
page length. The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are: Apply concepts in physical sciences to evaluate current trends and issues in the modern world.Describe
 the physical processes influencing climate and weather, including the 
roles of natural and anthropogenic activity on climate.Use technology and information resources to research issues in physical sciences.Write clearly and concisely about physical sciences using proper writing mechanics. Grading
 for this assignment will be based on answer quality, logic/organization
 of the paper, and language and writing skills, using the following

The natural climate change occurs due to the variations in the orbit of the sun. 
The initial phase of warming initiates the release of the greenhouse gases like 
methane, carbon dioxide. These gases magnify the warming in the orbit and hence the 
natural form of global warming is due to the combined effect of greenhouse gases and 
the changes in the orbit of sun. These natural cycles were occurring around the earth 
before many millions of years human came onto the earth. Contrasting the 
anthropogenic climate change with the natural one, it occurs due to the emission of 
greenhouse gases because of the human activities like vehicular emissions, industrial 
establishments and various other actions.  Scientific community strongly believes that 
the human activity for the last hundred years has contributed towards the greenhouse 
gases emissions proportionately more than the natural means as manifested by the 
polar ice cores changes. There are multiple evidences that show that there has been 
increase in the post-industrial rise in greenhouse gases and it does not branch from the 
natural means. The researchers across the world have shown that the anthropogenic 
climate change is much more than the natural phenomena. For example the most 
potent of the greenhouse gases like methane, nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide are at 
the highest levels for over 650,000 years.
In spite of the various claims by the scientific community about the human 
induced global warming, there have been evidences equally in number to prove that 
the global warming is actually not taking place and it can be proved by the following 
facts. The earth was much hotter thousand years than it appears to be in present times.
