· Deforestation – especially in South America and Indonesia accounts for 20% of all carbon emissions · Farming biofuels produces nitrous oxide which is bad for climate change · Large scale burning and cutting to grow crops –including biofuel crops- also causes adjacent forest decline: it causes reduced transpiration and hence reduced rainfall in adjacent forest areas result in drought cycle which accelerated death of trees which further reduces transpiration and rainfall. The accelerated

to the atmosphere. Greenhouses gases such as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, fluorocarbons and water vapor accumulate in the atmosphere and trap heat that normally would exit into outer space. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the main constituent of greenhouse gas. It is part of the natural “Carbon Cycle” of life on earth. Carbon dioxide is emitted into the atmosphere by plants and animals through natural processes such as breathing and decay. Carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere by the

BASILIO, CHIARRA NICOLE P. PROF. VENTURA BS BIOLOGY 4-2 Animal Physiology Lecture 1.) Differentiate DNA and RNA in terms of structure and composition DNA is known as the blueprint of biological guidelines that a living organism must follow to exist and remain functional. RNA on the other hand, helps carry out this blueprint's guidelines. Of the two, RNA is more versatile than DNA because it is capable of performing numerous, diverse tasks in an organism, but DNA is more

Carbon fibre reinforced polymer Name Institutional analysis Introduction Carbon Fibre reinforced polymer commonly known as CFRP is a very strong composite material that is majorly preferred for many automotive and aeronautical application due to the fact that despite their strength that still light that the traditional metallic materials. The polymers often used to make this composite material is epoxy, polyester, vinyl and even nylon. Thus in making CFRP carbon fibre is often combined with

A major piece of evidence that global warming is a manmade phenomena is that just in the last 650,000 years there have been seven cycles of glacial advance and retreat, with the abrupt end of the last ice age about 7,000 years ago marking the beginning of the modern climate era — and of human civilization. Most of these climate changes are attributed to very small variations in Earth’s orbit that change the amount of solar energy our planet receives. Ninety-seven percent of climate scientists

which plants, algae and photosynthetic bacteria use light energy to drive the synthesis of organic compounds. In plants, algae and certain types of bacteria, the photosynthetic process results in the release of molecular oxygen and the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere that is used to synthesize carbohydrates (oxygenic photosynthesis) Whitmarsh, John.

to get around town, leave the car at home and walk,take a bus,train or cycle around town. All this is to help highlight the pollution caused by ger distreet, cars, growing cities, development of economy and industrialization. Almost 6O% of the transport sector's CO2 emissions are produced by the use of ger distreet in cities. The air pollution causes by vehicles gases,ciggaretes smoke,factories gases, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide etc. but the worst is vehicles gases because several city with

radiation get absorbed by the atmosphere. This allows for other radiation with a lower frequency to pass through the atmosphere and heat the Earth. Greenhouse Gases Carbon dioxide () is one of the greenhouse gases. It consists of one carbon atom with an oxygen atom bonded to each side. When its atoms are bonded tightly together, the carbon dioxide molecule can absorb infrared radiation, which happen to be vibrating in the same frequency as the molecule, causing the molecule to vibrate. The phenomena
