Carbon Dioxide Greenhouse Effect
921 wordsVenus is the 2 nd closest planet to the Sun, and the closest planet to Earth. Venus can reach visual magnitudes (brightness) of - 4. 4, making it the brightest object in the night sky, excluding the moon. Venus was once considered Earth's twin, a swampy place with oceans and strange creatures were imagined. After sending probes such as Mariner, Pioneer Venus, Veteran (which landed on Venus), Vega, Magellan and Galileo, we know that Venus is the victim of a "run-away" greenhouse effect. Mars is t...

1,811 wordsImagine you are placed into the future. The year is 2100. You begin to live in this new world. You hear about huge storms over much of the USA that cause severe damage and flooding. San Francisco, New York City, New Orleans, Seattle, and Miami all experience major flooding from the ocean level having risen so high. Thousands and thousands of people perish each summer across the USA alone hundreds die in Chicago as the temperature soars to 100 for 2 weeks straight. No, this isnt total fantasy. Th...

Natural Greenhouse Effect Carbon Dioxide
1,107 wordsGlobal 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...

Atmospheric Co 2 Carbon Dioxide
1,549 wordsClimate change will have significant impacts on the global temperature such as an increase in temperature, change in weather patterns and sea-level rise. Sea-level is expected to rise 95 cm by the year 2100, with large local differences due to tides, wind and atmospheric pressure patterns, changes in ocean circulation, vertical movements of continents etc; the most likely value is in the range from 38 to 55 cm. The relative change of sea and land is the main factor: some areas may experience sea...

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 ...

Global Warming Problem And Solution Environmental
1,605 wordsGlobal Warming - Problem and Solution (Environmental) There are many problems concerning the environment. Pollution, destruction of the rainforests, and the consumption of all of our planet's natural resources are just a few. None of these issues quite compare to the problem of global warming. Global warming is a problem that affects not just some people, but everything and everyone. People must take action to stop global warming and must realize the severity of this problem before it is too lat...

Humankind's actions on a global scale have changed not just the landscape of the Earth, but the world's climate too. Increasingly sophisticated measurements of the world's climate and weather systems have provided a wealth of evidence that the Earth has been getting steadily warmer. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, atmos...

The periodicity of hurricanes in the next hundred years is going to increase by 60 - 70 % according to recent studies. Its been noted the formation of hurricanes is closely related to weather conditions around the globe. In 1991 the winters were particularly cold in Alaska and Siberia, yet it was the same year when many furious hurricanes, notab...

Stop Global Warming Carbon Dioxide
1,721 wordsEFTHIMIOS MARIAKAKIS The greenhouse effect and global warming are issues that are talked about by geologists all the time. The greenhouse effect is a natural process that keeps the earth at temperatures that are livable. Energy from the sun warms the earth when its heat rays are absorbed by greenhouse gasses and become trapped in the atmosphere. Some of the most common greenhouse gasses are water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane. If there were no greenhouse gasses, very few rays would be absor...

Green House Effect Effects Of Global Warming
1,263 wordsGlobal Warming is a great climatic phenomenon. The earth s temperature is rising and it is due to human activities. This rise in Earth s overall average temperature may seem minor or even irrelevant, but it is problem that should be taken seriously by the people and governments of this planet. Global warming is a serious threat to man s well being that he has brought upon himself. Global warming is caused by the Green House Effect. The Green House Effect is a natural part of the earth s atmosphe...

Million Years Ago Ice Ages
283 wordsDuring the past billion years, the Earths climate has changed from warm, ice-free periods to cold periods where the Earth was covered with many huge glaciers, and back to warm again. We are currently near the end a warm period in between ice ages. It is believed that there were many ice ages, 36, 15, and 3 million years ago. The last ice age is estimated to have been about 20, 000 years ago. Approximately 55 million years ago the whole earth was warm. The difference in temperature of the equator...

Carbon Dioxide Ozone Layer
1,519 wordsIn environmental science the green house effect is a common term for the role water vapor; carbon dioxide and ozone play in keeping the earths surface warmer than it would normally be. The atmosphere is primarily transparent to infrared radiation from the sun, which is mostly absorbed by the earths surface. The earth being much cooler than the sun, remits radiation most strongly at infrared wavelengths. Water vapor, carbon dioxide and ozone then absorb much of this radiation and remit a large pr...
