Introduction This is a critical analysis essay on the article written by Professor David Bellamy titled ‘The Global Warming Myth’. In the article Bellamy presents a different point of view on global warming. The article presents an alternative point of view and was published in the New Zealand Science Coalition. His stance on the subject of global warming is that it is a myth which is hyped by the media to cause panic in the people. He mentions in his article that the prediction of global warming in the future is based on uncertainty, and on the basis of limited information available on the subject matter. The point put forward by Bellamy is that the changes that are being experienced in terms of the weather and climate do not indicate global warming, and are instead indicators of a future ice age which is known to occur in a cyclical fashion. He dispels the notion of a global warming occurrence as being ill founded and lacking evidence. This essay is in agreement with the argument put forward by Bellamy regarding the presence of global warming as a threatening issue for the future. Analysis The argument against the occurrence of global warming, as highlighted by Bellamy who depicts it to be more of a myth in the general public instead of a reality, is based on the dubious nature of climate change. The climate has been changing all over the world; however the nature of the change is very different from what would be expected in global warming. Instead of the temperatures rising in regions, increased snow fall, increased rainfall and lower temperatures have been observed recently. Bellamy states in his article that a cyclical pattern is depicted by the rising and the lowering temperatures in the last century with limited periods of increased temperature along with limited period of very low temperatures. In fact in the 1980s the same people who are touting global warming were adamant on the occurrence of a future ice age which would strike earth again based on the decreasing temperatures being observed during that time. However, since after the 80s scientists, politicians as well as action groups are predicting a future global warming whereby the ozone layer would get depleted and the radiation coming to the surface of the earth would adversely effect the ecology, animal and flora/ fauna life on the planet. The evidence provided by them for the possible occurrence of global warming are the trends of climate change and rising/ decreasing weather temperatures recorded over the last few decades which have already been proven to be insufficient as with the prediction of a future ice age. In addition to this, scientific research has also not been able to provide ground breaking evidence for the relationship between carbon dioxide and the apparent impending threat of global warming. Bellamy depicts in his article that since 1998 the temperatures around the world on average have fallen and this despite the increased emission of carbon dioxide and related green house gases. On the other hand the animals like polar bears which were facing extinction a few years ago have started to rebreed and thrive again in the sustaining cooler temperatures in the arctic. This presents how the relationship between carbon dioxide and global warming is not evidently observ
