Third World Countries Due To The Fact
1,594 wordsThis paper is about two African third world countries that have serious problems with hunger, Ethiopia and Sudan. Looking at the people, the land, and the history in each country, a comparison will be made about the causes and effects of famine. Famine in Ethiopia and Sudan is apparently due to ethics, politics, and global weather patterns, but the specific causes of famine in these two countries differ greatly. Famine has stricken both Ethiopia and Sudan very harshly, with many people dying of ...

Carbon Dioxide Methane Renewable Energy Sources
1,623 wordsBy the middle of the twenty first century, there is evidence that the Earth will be warmer than it has been at any time in human history, and quite possibly since the end of the dinosaurs, some 65 billion years ago. If we stay at the rate we our now (fossil fuel consumption / growth in population) then within the next two century the Earth's air might not be fit to breath. Many people in the world do not think that this is a major concern and that it is normal for the Earth's temperature to incr...

Tropical Rain Forest Plants And Animals
1,722 wordsA decade ago the rain forests seldom came up in every day conversation. Today the tropical woodland is the theme and setting for popular movies such as the Medicine Man, and Arachnophobia. In addition there is an International restaurant chain called the Rain Forest Caf, the caf has a rain forest theme, and is located in such countries as the United States, England, and Australia. The Rain Forest Cafe actually donates a percentage of their profits toward rain forest conservation. Rain forests ar...

Ozone Depletion Ozone Layer
2,469 wordsThe Potential Effects of a Depleted Ozone Layer And God said, let there be light and there was light and then God saw the light, that it was good (Genesis 1: 3 - 4). Undoubtedly, light is good. Without light man could not survive. Light is the ultimate cosmic force in this universe allowing man to progress and flourish. In the form of heat, light from the sun warms the Earth. Light, also, is the single most important factor influencing the growth and development of plants. Photosynthesis, a proc...

Effects Of Global Warming Carbon Dioxide
1,403 wordsThe Problem of Global Warming First discovered at the turn of the century by the Swedish scientist Arrhenius, global warming was initially thought to only cause increased greenhouse gases from coal combustion emissions. It wasn? t until fifty years later that the real causes and effects of global warming would be discovered. A British scientist by the name of Calendar correlated the 10 % increase of atmospheric Carbon Dioxide between 1850 and 1940 with the observed warming of northern Europe and...

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...

Effects Of Global Warming Carbon Dioxide
1,531 wordsGlobal warming is the heating of the earth. This heating occurs because of the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is when carbon dioxide and other gases (methane and nitrous oxide) trap energy from the sun in our atmosphere. Most of the energy we receive from the sun is absorbed by the surface of the earth. Some of the energy is reflected and would normally exit our atmosphere; however, carbon dioxide absorbs this energy and it remains in our atmosphere. The more carbon dioxide in the atmo...
