Research Hypothesis I
Global warming does not exist in
Erhoike community.
Erhoike community.
In view of the hypothesis I, calculated
value X2 = 18.12 > x2 table value 0.05 = 5.991 at 2df. The researcher thereby
concludes that global warming exists in Erhioke community near Kokori in
Ethiope East Local Government Area, Delta State. The conclusion of the
researcher is in line with the view of Wright (2007) who stated that farm land,
flue stations emitting gasses, fossil fuel usage and burning of refuses or
waste materials openly can also serve as a carbon sink when farmers change
their crops mixture and practice minimum till cultivation that keep carbon in
the soil. Newton (2012) described global warming as increase in global
temperature, which in turn leads to global climate change. This phenomenon is
occasioned by green house effects.

Hypothesis II
Hypothesis II
There are no causes of global warming
in Erhoike community.
in Erhoike community.
In view of the hypothesis II,
calculated value X2 = 20.4 > x2 table value 0.05 = 5.991 at 2df. The
researcher thereby concluded that there are causes of global warming in Erhoike
community. The emission of green house gasses from their flow-station,
agricultural practices, open burning of refuses and mobile transportation and
this conclusion is in line with the statement of Augustine (2009) who stated
that the causes of global warming includes: deforestation, continuous releases
of green house gasses such as CFC, CH4, CO2, from man or
human anthrop progeny activities.

Hypothesis III
Hypothesis III
There are no health implications of
global warming on the people of Erhoike community.
global warming on the people of Erhoike community.
In view of the hypothesis III,
calculated value X2 = 37.55 > x2 table value 0.05 = 5.991 at 2df. This
means that the hypothesis III is rejected. The researcher therefore concluded
that there is health implication of global warming on the people of Erhoike
community. This conclusion was in view with that Ezinwa (2004) stated that the
major environmental impact of air pollution include green house gasses to
include carbon dioxide (CO2) chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), methane (CH4),
nitrous oxide (N2O) and Ozone (O3) which are been
generated primarily from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, natural gas). The
health and environmental cost and the extend of human suffering that global
warming has caused especially in developing countries where there are
inadequate regulation to protect the health of human and the environment is so
tremendous (Eidon & Bradly, 2004).

Hypothesis IV
Hypothesis IV
Government does not play any role in
combating the problems of global warming.
combating the problems of global warming.
In view of the hypothesis IV,
calculated value X2 = 34.0 > x2 table value 0.05=5.991 at 2df. The
researcher concluded that government have role to play in combating the
problems of global warming. This is in agreement with the point of view of IPCC
(2007) that almost though the world; there was a global call on various governments
to enact law that will reduce the emission of heat trapping gases.

Aw, this was a really nice post. In idea I would like to put in writing like this additionally ? taking time and actual effort to make a very good article? but what can I say? I procrastinate alot and by no means seem to get something done.
