Answer:

the process of globalization is making the world seem more international and interdependant, than divided in national countries

Explanation:

The process of globalization, as one of the key concepts and focus points of today’s world politics, is spreading at high speed.

<em>Globalization</em>, in few words, is a political, cultural and economic phenomenon. In the same time, it is a cause and also a consequence of a worldwide political climate of interdependence.

The differences between countries and parts of the world are fading, less and less <em>national authenticity</em> can be found.

By <em>participating</em> in a free liberal trade, the countries have opened their borders to foreign investors, cultural exchange, and, of course to the influence of the most powerful states of the West hemisphere.

Answer:

1- One of the most immediate and obvious effects of worldwide warming is the increase in temperatures around the world. The average worldwide temperature has increased by about 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius) over the past 100 years, according to the National Ocean-related and (related to the air outside) Management (NOAA).

The (related to the air outside) carbon dioxide concentration has risen from about 270 parts per million (ppm) before 1700 to about 355 ppm today. Climate changes, including a mean worldwide surface temperature rise of between 2.8 and 5.2°C, have been (described a possible future event) by five independent general circulation models (GCMs) for a doubling of the carbon dioxide concentration. The goals of this paper are to examine plant responses to rising carbon dioxide levels and (related to the Earth's weather) changes and to understand/explain the results of these changes on crop water use and water supplies for the United States.

2- Human activity has increased the direct warming effect of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by 50 percent above pre-industrial levels during the past 25 years, according to NOAA's 10th Once-a-year (glass building where plants are grown) Gas Index.

I hope this helped you! Make sure you put this in your own words, and if you want me to put it in your own words for you, let me know! Also, you do not have to write all of that, just write the most important stuff! : )
