Bloger#2


               My name is Jian Li Zou and I’m from the Eng101 class. In this blog I’m going to discuss about the climate change. According to the two essay “The Scientific Consensus on Climate Change” by Naomi Oreskes and “The Anthropogenicby Paul and Eugene from the book “The Global Warming reader” by Bill Mckibben, our climate is changing in many negative ways such as temperature is higher and the sea level is rising too. In addition, if we don’t stop the climate from going down, it will lead to many problems; the cities that are on the low sea level will be flood.

                 In essay “The Anthropogenic” by Paul and Eugene is mostly about the author is trying to give a lot of the evidence that can prove mankind activity is causing the climate change. For instance, the coal and oil burning are releasing more than 100 million of SO2 every year to the atmosphere. Mankind is exhausting the fossil fuels after generations and generations. In addition, people are releasing many toxic substances to the environment, which can harm our own people and our environment. On the other hand, the author also said that if we want to the climate we should “guide mankind towards global, sustainable, and environmental management.

                The second essay “The Scientific Consensus on Climate Change” by Naomi Oreskes is mainly about the scientist trying to let people know what is happing to our climate. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is one of the organizations that are trying to prove the climate change by send out reports of the environment change date. Furthermore, the since 1993 scientist were publishing more than 900articles about the climate change.

  1. Hi I’m Bibi and I am a tutor in the writing center and I am reading your assignment on climate change. Basically I am understanding what you are trying to say and everything is clear but in your second paragraph on the anthropogenic I want to know in specific details when people release toxic substance to the environment how can it harm other people, in what ways can it harm people? When you are trying to state what the author is saying im am not getting what you are trying to say when you wrote “we want to the climate we should” it seems that there is a missing word that you should fix. And when you are giving examples I want to know how are these useful from what the author said, give a little more details.

    In the second essay that you are writing about I think if you write a little bit more of a detailed summary you will be fine. You are just stating points but not explaining them or showing how it is connected to what you’re told to write about. Also the information that you are giving me on the second information I want to know how is this useful to the scientific consensus on climate change.

    At the end I think you should proofread because you have some missing words. I see that you are listing facts but I do not see a context in why you are listing these and the connection to the text. Your facts are good but I need follow up to show why these facts matter.
