6. Conclusion

I also mentioned that ozone layer is repairing itself as evident through latest research, however it should not be considered a sign of victory - humanity is a long way from saving the planet earth from Global Warming. I could not remember a single quote or reference, so I wrote none. My essay was almost 2000-2100 words, I could not write more than that, as I was worried that conclusion might be left out if I prolonged the essay to increase word count.

Please share your comments and pointers, I dont have any space for improvement as it was my final attempt. Nonetheless, feedback is welcomed. Also share your essay outline or general ideas.
I cannot comment on your introduction as you have only written thesis statement but as pointed by Saddam, global warming is caused by both anthropological as well as natural reasons. Other sentences in your introduction might have got it covered.
About outline, your points are not self explanatory. Most of the points are valid but it is not explained that how they are related to the topic. Ozone depletion, acid rain and smog are not due to global warming.
You have written threats above causes and I have done the same since main topic was about threats and ways to counter them. I have also included causes.
