Problem Of Global Warming Amounts Of Carbon
456 wordsThe problem of global warming, an increase in the average temperature on Earth, is getting worse. The Earth has warmed 0. 3 to 0. 6 degrees Celsius since the late 1800 s. Scientists believe that the cause is the greenhouse effect, the process of trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere because of the presence of large amounts of carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons, methane, and nitrogen oxides. Less oxygen is being produced and cleaning the atmosphere allowing more of these gases to do its work o...

Natural Greenhouse Effect Carbon Dioxide
722 wordsGlobal Warming is sometimes referred to as the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is the absorption of energy radiated from the Earth's surface by carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere, causing the atmosphere to become warmer. The greenhouse effect is what is causing the temperature on the Earth to rise, and creating many problems that have started and will continue to occur in the coming decades. Life could not exist if there was no natural greenhouse effect. The reason for the...

Burning Of Fossil Greenhouse Gases
985 wordsGlobal warming is a steady increase in earths average temperature which appears to be acknowledged by many scientists and people at the present as reality. Increasing human activities are changing the Earth's temperature which includes natural influences that have been there over the past. By and large, this warming takes place due to the use of green-house gases emitted in the Earth's upper atmosphere. Some skeptics believe and some studies seem to point out that human production of greenhouse ...

Global Warming Im Glad
671 wordsI remember the first time I ever saw and heard about global warming. I was probably in the first or second grade at the time. I was watching the TV and a commercial came on, it was a cartoon with two kids and an adult. They were in the park enjoying the day, when the guy started talking about global warming. The kids didnt know what he was talking about so he fast forwards time and shows them what the earth is going to be like when they are his age. The future earth is barren and desert like. Th...

Global Warming And Alternative Energy
1,056 wordsPeople are inflicting major damage to the Earths environment, and if we dont do anything to stop the destruction soon, the results could be devastating. Most people know about global warming and think it may be a serious problem in the future. What most people dont understand is that global warming is happening now, and we are already feeling some of its destructive power. Because of the dangerous effects of global warming, alternative energy sources need to be aggressively pursued. Finding and ...

Carbon Dioxide Fossil Fuels
1,092 wordsIn talking about global warming, we need to learn what causes the greenhouse effect. Rays from the sun are taken up and absorbed by water vapor that is natural in the atmosphere. The United States emits the largest manmade greenhouse gases in the world. As Americans we must realize the responsibility to reduce the emissions. (Gore, Albert) Water Vapor is eighty percent of greenhouse warming. The last twenty percent results from other gases that are in very little amounts. A huge absorber of the ...

Coral Reefs And Algae
1,656 wordsCoral Reefs and Algae Coral reefs are unique ecological systems of the Earth Nature. These systems are very complicated and provide natural balance in the global ocean environment. Unfortunately, the human technological activity impacts coral reefs in the same harmful way as it impacts other ecological systems. Coral reefs are inhabited of approximately 25 % of marine species. They are very valuable because of their economic attractiveness through tourism and fisheries. A recent economic estimat...

Effects Of Global Warming Polar Bears
1,306 wordsEffects of Global Warming On Polar Bears and Polar Seals Introduction Polar bears depend on polar seals as a source of food in the polar region. Polar bears hunt polar seals before winter comes, so they can get all the proteins and fats they need in order to survive. Global warming is increasing the melt of ice in the Arctic region. As a result, polar seals will not be able to survive and face the environmental changes including climate. Therefore, polar bears will be threatened by starvation an...

772 wordsBush Wont Regulate Carbon Dioxide Updated 7: 30 PM ET March 13, 2001 By SCOTT LINDLAW, Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) Backing off a campaign pledge, President Bush told Congress Tuesday he will not regulate carbon dioxide emissions from power plants. The decision, outlined in a letter sent to a Republican senator, came after furious lobbying from the coal industry. It was a blow to conservationists who see curbing emissions of such greenhouse gases as key to reducing global warming. The...

Carbon Dioxide Emissions Science And Technology
1,145 wordsEvery year, Earth s surface receives 1. 73 x 10 17 W of energy from the sun. This is about 15, 000 times as much the human population uses annually (Merritt's 267). Global warming occurs when the levels of greenhouse gasses rise and less infrared light, or heat, escapes the earths atmosphere. Thus, the temperature experienced on Earth begins to rise. Climate change is a part of the Earths history. There have been dramatic fluctuations in overall average temperature for the past 150, 000 years th...
