Describe the differences between the Republican and Democratic positions on the issue of climate change. (Site 1)

Answer 1

Many Democrats today typically accept that global warming occurs and is man-made and that there is little to do about this. On the other side, Republicans, amid tens of facts to the contrary, generally declined to accept that this was a man-made epidemic. Earth’s climate is always changing. In the past million years, there have been about twelve periods in which glaciers covered much of the northern hemisphere. In between these ice ages, warm climates could last for as long as 80,000 years. The last ice age ended only about 11,700 years ago. We have been living in a warm climate ever since. In the past, most climate change has been caused by changes in Earth’s orbit that change how much of the sun’s energy Earth receives. However, for the past 35 years, Earth has been experiencing an unusually fast warming trend. The ten warmest years in recorded history have all happened since 1998. The five warmest years have all been since 2010. Most climate scientists are sure that this warming trend is the result of human activity.
