    Global Warming

    a thin spherical envelope of gases surrounding the earth’s surface. Its inner layer, the troposphere, contains the majority of the air that humans breathe. This consists of nitrogen, oxygen, and greenhouse gases. Examples of greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor. These elements assist in the reduction of heat flow back into the atmosphere which causes the natural greenhouse effect. This keeps the Earth warm enough to maintain life. According to Miller

    people are causing the Earth’s climate to change. How might people be the cause of global climate change? Well, scientists have concluded that most of the observed warming is very likely due to the burning of coal, oil, and gas. About two hundred years ago, technology led to an increase in population which led to an increase in the use of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and gas. This increased consumption of fossil fuel led to huge amounts of carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere. (Hardy

    levels will rise by seven meters and median air temperatures will soar to 14.5 degrees warmer than current day. These are the stunning results of climate and carbon cycle model simulations conducted by scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. By using a coupled climate and carbon cycle model to look at global climate and carbon cycle changes, the scientists found that the earth would warm by 8 degrees Celsius (14.5 degrees Fahrenheit) if humans use the entire planet's available fossil
