    hurt the polar bears’ habitat. Climate change has been fastly melting the Arctic. Greenhouse gases act like a sheet or blanket that keeps the planet warm. This protective layer keeps our atmosphere habitable. But over the past two-hundred years, have greatly increased the levels of greenhouse gasses in our atmosphere by burning fossil fuels like oil and coal. The consequence of this is that the layer of greenhouse gasses gets even thicker, causing the temperature to rise rapidly. Not only does…

    temperature heats up causing the climate to become unbalanced. The temperature increases when certain greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere which traps heat in. These greenhouse gases consist of CO2, Methane and Nitrous Oxide. This process is called the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is when heat is trapped in and isn’t able to be released easily. Before humans started producing greenhouse gases, nature were creating these gases as well. Even though they were producing the…

    Climate scientists agree the main cause of climate change is greenhouse gas emissions. Created when sunlight reaches the Earth’s surface, it can either be absorbed by the Earth or reflected back into space. The planet releases some of the energy back into the atmosphere when the rest is absorbed as heat. These gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor: absorb the energy, decelerating or inhibiting the loss of heat back into space. Therefore the gases acting like a blanket, causing the…

    contributor to this increase is the effect of greenhouse gasses, and in order to decrease these effects, the consumption of dairy products should be reduced. Greenhouse gases are gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, which cloud the air. These gases allow “direct sunlight (relative…

    There are a couple things that we can do to decrease the amount man-made greenhouse gases that are released. We are pushing towards more fuel-efficient vehicles, renewable energy, and protecting forests. Fuel-efficient vehicles would result in vehicles getting more mileage on less gas. This would lower the amount of emissions vehicles…

    CONSERVE FOSSIL FUELS The climate change is a hard situation and a big problem. Everybody is informed about the climate change, everybody knows how climate changes affect our planet, the people and our nature and environment. The biggest reason why we have climate change is because we use fossil fuels. I live an ordinary life, I go to school, I have friends and a good family. Today the majority of people in the world live a good life, we have money and we have food on our table. But how can…

    defined as “a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the earth 's atmosphere generally attributed to the greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide, CFCs, and other pollutants.” by the Oxford Dictionary. This means that due to the effects of pollutants in the atmosphere the temperature of the earth is rising in a process called the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is what happens when solar radiation (light, infrared and ultraviolet) pass through the clear…

    human activities ("Is Current Warming Natural?"). Majority of scientists agree that the current global warming is due to human expansion of the “greenhouse gas effect”, that is, when the greenhouse gases absorb IR radiation and prevent it from radiating toward outer space which results in gradual heating of the Earth’s atmosphere and surface. Greenhouse gases that contribute to the global warming include water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and chlorofluorocarbons. Human…

    Apparently, conservation agriculture is able to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases as well as global food security. First of all, according to the definition of greenhouse gases (GHG) “The atmospheric concentrations of some greenhouse gases are being affected directly by human activities namely carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone, chlorofluorocarbons and hydrofluorocarbons. Water vapour is also a major greenhouse gas, but its concentration in the atmosphere is not influenced…

    increasing atmospheric temperature which contributes to negative climate changes. Due to transportation emitting twenty-three percent of greenhouse gas emissions, it is only fair to say that countries all over the world should enforce proper regulations and requirements to slow down these emissions. Renewable energies has created many solutions for reduce greenhouse gases. Once these alternatives are implemented more effectively the dilemma of global warming will become less of an issue.…
