Methane Nitrous Oxide Carbon Dioxide Methane
1,647 wordsWhy are the Heads of State Increasingly Worried About Global Warming? In the last few decades the worlds sea levels have risen, the weather has become more unpredictable and countries are now facing hotter summers with colder winters. This is due to global warming, which is becoming an increasingly real problem. But why is global warming a problem? If scientists theories are correct, then the results world over would be catastrophic. Global warming is the build up of greenhouse gases in the atmo...

Methane Nitrous Oxide Burning Fossil Fuels
4,674 wordsHuman Environmental Science Global Warming Human kind has entered a brand new relationship with the earth. The constant and increasing pressures we are exerting threaten our planets ability to sustain life itself. Change-in the way we think, and in the way we live-is needed now. Global warming is the most urgent environmental problem the world will face in the next decade and the next century. Few, if any, trends are more important to our future than climate change caused by human activities. Sc...

Methane Nitrous Oxide Rise In Sea
1,611 wordsThe Greenhouse Effect The greenhouse effect is an increase in the atmospheric temperature caused by increasing amounts of greenhouse gases. These gases act as a heat blanket insulating the Earths surface absorbing and trapping heat radiation which normally escapes from the earth. They include carbon dioxide, water vapour, methane, nitrous oxide, CFCs, and other halo-carbons. The earths atmosphere goes through two processes constantly. Global cooling is the first process. This process uses the cl...

Methane Nitrous Oxide Carbon Dioxide Emissions
1,396 wordsGlobal Warming The Greenhouse Effect The greenhouse effect is a term that is used to refer to an atmospheric process. The greenhouse effect is the inability of long wave radiation to escape the atmosphere causing increased air temperature and increasing impurities in the atmosphere. During the last 20 years the media and public have given the topic priority consideration. There is some evidence that the atmosphere is warming and strong indications that the greenhouse effect is responsible. It is...
