Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor that trap heat in the atmosphere. This greenhouse effect is natural but human pollution has increased greenhouse gas levels, causing average temperatures to rise. Consequences of global warming include melting glaciers that raise sea levels and damage the ozone layer. Individual actions such as driving less, using less energy, and recycling can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and prevent further global warming.

1. GLOBAL WARMING By Alexy Truman and Fatmah Alabbad Pollution doesn’t only effect us but the earth too.

2. Table of contents * What causes global warming. * What are the consequences of global warming. * Information on global warming. * How we can prevent global warming. * Bibliography

3. These are all the things that create global warming. Cars and other transportation cause 20% of global warming.

4. INFORMATION ON GLOBAL WARMING Energy from the sun drives the earth’s weather. Because of the earth’s heat and climate the earth gives out energy back into space. Atmospheric greenhouse gases trap some of the outgoing energy, retaining heat somewhat like the glass panels of a greenhouse. Some of these natural gases are water vapor, carbon dioxide, and many other gases. Without this natural greenhouse effect, temperatures would be much lower than they are now, and life as known today would not be possible. Instead, thanks to greenhouse gases, the earth’s average temperature is a more hospitable 60°F. However, problems may occur when the atmospheric focus of greenhouse gases increases because of human pollution.

5. Our world in the future. Global warming is causing glaciers to melt which is bring the ocean level up. The Consequences Another consequence of global warming is the ozone layer hole.

6. How we can help stop Global warming. We can carpool with other people to limit the car pollution….. We can also ride bikes to our destination. Other ways prevent global warming is by: buying a hybrid car, planting a tree, take shorter showers, and by reduce, reuse, recycle .
