Burt Helm’s New York Time’s article “Climate Change’s Bottom Line,” elaborates on the effects and possible preventions dealing with climate change. It is imperative for society and businesses to realize the true urgency and repercussions that climate change holds for our future. Often times, regulations are not implemented until it’s too late, and many people are trying to prevent that from happening. The Risky Business Project, comprised of prestigious members ranging from politicians to…

Carbon dioxide emissions in Argentina is not as bad. During the year of 1887 through 2006, the gas, solid, and liquid used is very low at the beginning of the year until 1922 where they start to increase throughout the years. Solid doesn’t have a major increase at all through the years. This means that in Argentina the people often, do not burn wood or coal as much. According to the data, In 1960 Argentina start emitting carbon dioxide. When comparing Argentina’s carbon dioxide to other…

Over the past 3 decades or so there has been a progressively growing interest in the diversity of different types of land use systems and the roles they play in stabilizing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations as well as mitigating CO2 emissions. Specific interest has been shown towards agroforestry systems and their ability to sequester carbons in above and below ground biomass while simultaneously enhancing global carbon sinks (Dixon et al. 1994). Agroforestry offers the…

resources were being used intensively influencing the environment with all the emissions of greenhouse gases. Thus, the main cause for the change in atmosphere is human caused. Desperately seeking towards the industrial revolution and the intensive use of energy “led to a raise in the emission of carbon dioxide” (Causes of climate change. Retrieved November 23, 2015). Methane, another important greenhouse gas in our atmosphere that is formed from the cud-chewing process of domesticated animals,…

from fossil fuels in the Second Industrial Revolution to renewable energy generation, technologies in sustainable and smart communities. This is why green technology has been implemented which brings innovative ideas to reduce global warming and greenhouse gas effects. 1.2 Definition of…

The Greenhouse effect is “a warming effect caused by certain gases that retain heat from sunlight. Without such gases, the average surface temperature of the Earth would be below freezing. The global warming debate is centered upon whether added greenhouse gases released by human activity will overheat the Earth and cause harmful effects”. (Agresti) Also Agresti points out that the portion of gas in atmosphere attributed to human activity is roughly…

another land use or the long-term reduction of the tree canopy cover” (“Deforestation”) is a global problem. One immediate effect of this phenomenon is the degradation of forests. More specifically, deforestation reduces biodiversity, releases greenhouse gas emissions, disrupts water cycles, increases soil erosion, and disrupts livelihoods (“Deforestation”). Southeast Asia is facing extreme amounts of deforestation. About 3.5 million hectares of forest were lost between the years of 1990 and…

and Dan Vergano, authors who are a part of a company called Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report, “Among the findings, Tebaldi says, is that even if people stopped burning the fossil fuels that release carbon dioxide, the heat- trapping gas blamed most for the warm-up, the effects of higher temperatures, including deadlier heat waves, coastal floods, longer droughts, worse wildfires and higher energy bills, would not go away in our lifetime.” Burning…

“We shall need a substantially new way of thinking if humanity is to survive” said by the world renown scientist Albert Einstein in 1954. This proves that human-induced Climate Change has been affecting the world for decades. It is a highly discussed topic among world leaders (President Obama) and scientist everywhere (Bill Nye) and most argue about whether or not is it effecting us. During my research I think I will discover how drastically humans have negatively impacted the Earth, and also…

Science is the root of our planet, our living and everything around us. If we want to improve our living standard or solving the problem of the whole world, we should make used on science and this is technology. “The science of today is the technology of tomorrow. “Said by Edward Teller, A Physicist in US. Every new technology we have invented right now, will become a piece of puzzle of our future. A picture of a high living standard is what we all want to see and that’s why we must spend more…
