Key Issues
Defining the terms and concept
Overview of the climate change that highlights the types of global warming, its causes
and impact should be emphasized. The paragraph will start from description of the concept of
global warming and then description of different types of global warming and comparison
among these types. Moreover, to provide more details, Probable cause of the global warming and
people, who are mostly affected by the process, should be provided by me. The supportive
arguments for the consequences of global warming will be taken from the article “Perception of
climate change. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” written by (Hansen et al.
2012).
The details about climate changes in past and its effect on environmental diversity is
planned to discuss in this paragraph. The information is then followed by the details of
information of the gases responsible for the occurrence of climate change. The arguments and
supportive statements are taken from “The challenge to keep global warming below 2? C. Nature
Climate Change” written by (Peters et al. 2013). Details on rapid climate change in the natural

cycle, timeframe of the climate change along with the concept of the Milankovitch Cycles,
change in the Atmospheric Composition and information on Change in the Forcing Levels is also
planned to be included in the essay.
Role of CSR
The role of CSR in overcoming the global warming and climate change will be discussed.
The comparison between the current temperature with that of the 2 decades ago to represent the
actual scenario of the global warming and climate change will be highlighted. Collect statistical
facts on climate change like percentage of carbon dioxide emission, global temperature from
different news arties and journal paper to support the argument. Lastly, in the introduction part of
the essay will be collected by me. The linkage between CSR and climate change will be
discussed. Examples of corporations teaming up with nonprofit partners and percentage increases
in the involvement in CSR activity for overcoming the problem of global warming will also be
discussed.
Devastating consequences of global warming and climate change
Perception of community on the increase in problem of global warming and then explain
the linkage of global warming with carbon emission will be included. Furthermore the article
written by Ihlen (2009) is used to discuss the impact with justification of climate change on
agricultures along with the impact of global warming on the polar melting and melting glaciers
issues with examples. Moreover, the effect of climate change on human health is discussed
followed by the explanation of ocean acidification and sea level rise due to increase of climate
change and impact of climate change on the economy of the world with examples (Nacu-
Schmidt et al. 2016). Lastly, solutions that scientists have developed for overcoming the global
