... to be correct." I think this is very foolish
considering that the earth will naturally warm up
again, and when it does that it will warm up a
little more than it was before. But what I think
Dr. Landscheidt is are saying is that it does not
need to be dealt with so fast because the planet
will cool down more. So we can do it slower and
spend less money on it. But we do not know if the
greenhouse effect will overpower the natural
effects. Unfortunately, this scenario of normal
raise in temper...

The health issues of global warming are causing
the human population rate to decrease over time.
The health issues are caused by infectious
microbes, pollution by chemical and biological
wastes. Many of these diseases will cause
illnesses or even death in the future. In fact,
many scientists and doctors have discovered these
diseases will cause human population to decrease
by deaths as they are transferred from one person
to the next either physical, eating animals

Burning Of Fossil Greenhouse Gases

Global 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 ...

Natural Greenhouse Effect Carbon Dioxide

Global warming is sometimes refereed to as the
greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is the
absorption of energy radiated from the Earths
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 it is
creating many problems that will begin to occur in
the near future. For the last 10, 000 years, the
Earths climate has been extraordinarily beneficial
to mankind. Human...

The importance of the greenhouse effect was just
conceived in the mid-twentieth century. "For
billions of years, cosmic forces shaped Earth, and
land and air coevolve at an almost inconceivably
slow pace to create a climate in which human
beings and other creatures could flourish. "
(Francesca Lyman). Now, for the first time,
humanity has the power to change the global
climate. By releasing the huge amounts of carbon
stored in fossil fuels over millions of years, we

Current Efforts to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emission
/ Global Warming Global warming is the issue of
the day. According to the foreign researchers, the
emissions by industrialized countries of the
greenhouse gas related to the global warming shows
a dangerous upward trend despite the efforts to
reduce emission and to control global warming.
According to the report, despite the overall level
of emissions reduced 3. 3 % during 1990 - 2004,
this reduction mostly occurred due to the 36. 8 %
decline in ...

Burning Of Fossil Fuels Greenhouse Gases

Many people disagree on the issue concerning
global warming. Some believe that human
activities, various forms of polluting, are the
main cause of global warming. Others think that
not only have humans not affected the planet by
any significant amount, but that not much global
warming has even occurred. Many scientists think
that pollution is the cause of global warming and
the greenhouse effect. There is a lot of evidence
to support this theory. In the United States
alone, almost 15, 000 pounds...

Global Climate Change Climate change is not a new
concept; in fact there is evidence of major
climate changes throughout the earths history.
However since the industrial revolution and
especially since world war two, there has been an
unprecedented change in the earths atmosphere
(Gates 4). As of March 1999, scientists reported
the construction of a thousand-year record of the
average temperature on earth. The results of their

Polar Ice Caps Rise In Sea Level

Global Warming Global Warming, aside from
pollution is one of scientists biggest concerns.
Global Warming is caused by the Greenhouse effect.
There are 4 steps in the Greenhouse effect
process. The first is, sunlight radiates from the
sun, through space, to the Earth s atmosphere. The
second is, sunlight enters the atmosphere and hits
the Earth. Some of that sunlight turns into heat
energy in the form of infrared light. Surrounding
air and land, which in turn makes the heat warm,
absorbs the hea...

being of the planet when changes in the earths
climate are made. This experiment is called global

warming is the increasing temperature of the
earths climate, which is expected to warm even
further because of human activities that include
the burning of fossil fuels to run cars and

1. What are the Greenhouse Gases? Carbon dioxide
(CO 2) is responsible for more than half the human
contribution to the greenhouse effect, and
concentrations have climbed steadily from around
280 parts per million at the dawn of the
industrial revolution meaning 0. 028 percent of
the air s volume is taken up by the gas to around
355 ppm today. As people burn oil, coal and
natural gas, they release carbon that ancient
plants in past geological ages absorbed and
stored. 6 As cement workers process...

Global warming is a very serious problem plaguing
our world. Global warming is defined as a warming
of the Earths surface and lower atmosphere that
tends to intensify with an increase in atmospheric
carbon dioxide. Basically, global warming is
exactly what it sounds like; the warming of the
Earths temperature. There are many explanations
and theories about why global warming is occurring
in our world. The atmosphere lets in heat that
