blanket that is caused by acceptable levels of global warming. However, global warming is not all good. It can cause the earth's covering to increase in density. With a denser blanket over the earth, less of the heat is reflected back into space. This upsets the delicate balance between heat and cold that is usually maintained on earth. It traps more heat inside the earth's atmosphere. Although there are people who argue against it, there seems to be a change in the climate in recent years. Climate

greenhouse gasses including carbon dioxide conveys more warmth to the earth as they have capacity to ingest and discharge heat in the environment and hence keep earth warm. A few of the human activities that contribute to the greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere are deforestation, burning fossil fuel and invention of new technology. All the greenhouse gasses make temperature of earth to increment at higher rate which is not in the support of life of people, animal and plants. A gigantic level of environmental

preserve human growth as well as Earth’s growth. Another viewpoint is that by depleting more of these fossil fuels for consumption, whether it is for personal use or industrial use, humans are polluting the air with toxic materials. Toxic materials such as lead, nitrogen oxides, sulfuric oxide, carbon oxides (carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide), hydrocarbons, and ozone are by-products of fossil fuel combustion polluting the air that is affecting Earths atmosphere. Slightly increased temperatures

of carbon monoxide into the atmosphere. There are many other ways to more products that we use now that are better and more environmentally safer such as electric trains. Dr. Gavin Schmidt at the Goddard Institute for Space Studies, tells us that basically, we’re putting greenhouse gases – which are primarily water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone – into the atmosphere, making it harder for energy coming in from the sun and processed by Earth’s climate systems to make it back

whether global warming is serious, or is only a natural thing. The controversy of global warming and its effect on temperature has been around for many years. Scientifically, global warming is described as the increasing air temperatures near the Earth’s surface. An increase in temperature can affect many things such as: weather patterns (potentially causing natural disasters) as well as animal adaptations. An example of how global warming affects animals and their adaptations to certain environments

GLOBAL WARMING J.Cumm. American Intercontinental University Global Warming Global warming is the greatest challenge that our planet is facing. In fact the increase in the temperature of the earth’s air, several current trends clearly demonstrates that global warming is impacting our environment. Many people around the world are debating the facts about global warming. The problem of global warming has been unsolvable; researchers have various problems that we as humans have inflicted on

environment. The CFC combines with the earth’s upper atmosphere of ozone layer. The ozone layer protects the earth from the ultra violet radiation of the sun. The CFC’s gas molecules transfer and destroy the ozone layer and cause the skin cancer. So, skin cancer is another disease contributed to air pollution. Thirdly, air pollution also causes acid rain on the environment. Factories, power plants and automobiles release contaminating particles into the atmosphere which is fall to the earth in the

Air pollution is a horrible thing because people are polluting the environment, we can stop this by shutting down most of the coal fired power plants and lowering how much gases and other harmful things we put into the environment. Polluting the environment is hurting not only us but also the plants and animals. The reason why polluting the environment is bad is because it is putting holes in the ozone layer and is causes people to have major health problems like with their breathing. There are many

John Carter – An Astronomical Analysis Plot Summary: Following the death of John Carter, his nephew, Edgar Rice Burroughs attends his funeral to find that Carter has left him all his belongings as well as a small journal. Burroughs begins reading the journal to find that it is a diary with instructions. He finds out that in 1868, Colonel Powell tried to force Carter in joining the army to help fight and arrest Apache. However, Carter escapes and Powell begins chasing him before they are ambushed

Victoria Nelam English400 Professor Barilari 30 November 2012 Air pollution Air pollution is the contamination of the air by noxious gases and small particles of solid and liquid matter in amounts that can cause harm to our life . It has been a part of life for many years causing great harm to our planet. We should always educate ourselves about the planet we live in so we can find a way to solve problems. There are
