Dear Dennis,

What do you actually believe is the cause of global warming? I absolutely pray that you don’t listen to the bull crap your mother tells you about global warming. Before, I explain the actual reasoning in terms of why you should believe me. I ask that you take into consideration the fact that you are also a human being living on Earth. I understand that your mother is a CEO of a big major oil and gas company; however, human contributions are known to be the main cause of global warming.
The belief that global warming is just a natural climate cycle is the biggest deception in the history of mankind. Global warming is caused by human behavioral activities. Human actions that generate global warming to become worse are the release of greenhouse gases in our Earth’s atmosphere, deforestation, agriculture, construction, transportation, and industry/companies. This information may seem vague to the sense that there is no major example of humans partaking in global warming. Nevertheless, a basic everyday human activity such as driving a vehicle to work is apprehensible. In the article entitled “What do the skeptic say?” by Mark Maslin, it states published information form the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) about greenhouse gases partaking in global warming. According to Maslin, “From the huge amount of published scientific evidence the IPCC (2001) has concluded: ‘In the light of new evidence and taking into account the remaining uncertainties, most of the observed warming over the last 50 years is likely [ 60-90% confidence] to be due to the increase in greenhouse gas concentration. In the light of the fact that scientist have made conclusions, it is easy to see that human contributions are causing global warming.
Dennis, you’re probably reading this saying “How does this relate to me?” In order, to make sure that you believe the information that I ‘m stating to you; I suggest you stop listing to the false information scientist provide about the causes of global warming. One particular video that you may have listened to that could have provided you with altered information is the YouTube video “The Climate Change Denial Industry.” Although, the information in this video may be useful, there is certain scenes within the video that gives you wrong information The scene where Dr. Ball talks about global warming being a natural cycle, is incorrect. Although he is just stating an opinion, the actual definition of climate change is drastic measure in temperature. Consequently, this shows that Dr. Ball is just stating an opinion not facts; compared to other research showing how global warming is caused by humans.
Your mother is telling you wrong information. I’m sorry to tell you, but Dennis you along with millions of other individuals cause global warming. I suggest that you take the timeout and go speak to your mother about global warming. I understand that she may just be defending her title as a CEO. However, I ‘am thankful that you took the time to read this letter. The truth is now in your hands, I hope that you take this information and join me in becoming more cautious about global warming.

Sincerely,
Devin Dixon
