Greenhouse effect and global
         warming

Carbon dioxide and water vapor are natural
components of air. As such, they have
generally not been considered pollutants.
However, the voluminous amount of carbon
dioxide and water continously spewed into
the air by motor vehicles and factories
worldwide has become alarming.
Greenhouse effect and global
          warming


Increased amounts of carbon dioxide and
water vapor have possible long term effects.
The maxima of solar radiation which enters
the earth is in the shorter wavelenght
ultraviolet and visible regions.
Greenhouse effect
                    The earth also radiates enrgy butits
                    maxima is in the longer wavelenght
                    infrared region
                    Both carbon dioxide and water
                    vapor molecules are not by
                    affectedby incoming shorter
                    wavelenght solar radiation but they
                    absorb heat (infrared radiation)
                    given off by the earth.
Greenhouse effect and global warming


 This heat is released back to the lower
 atmosphere as their molecules vibrate.
 This is called the greenhouse effect.
 Both carbon dioxide and water vapor are
 called greenhouse gases.
Greenhouse effect and global warming


 But there is less problem with water vapor
 because its concentration in air remains fairly
 constant. On the other hand, the amount of
 carbon dioxide in air has tremendously
 increased in the past century because of
 man’s activities, mainly the burning of fossil
 fuels about 3 g of carbon dioxide is produce
 for every gram of fossil fuel burned.
Ozone depletion
Ozone Depletion

Ozone depletion describes two distinct but
related phenomena observed since the late
1970s: a steady decline of about 4% per
decade in the total volume
of ozone in Earth's stratosphere (the ozone
layer), and a much larger springtime decrease
in stratospheric ozone over Earth's polar
regions.
Ozone Depletion

                  The latter phenomenon is referred
                  to as the ozone hole. In addition to
                  these well-known stratospheric
                  phenomena, there are also
                  springtime polar tropospheric
                  ozone depletion events
Ozone Depletion

It is suspected that a variety of biological
consequences such as increases in skin
cancer, cataracts,[3] damage to plants, and
reduction of plankton populations in the
ocean's photic zone may result from the
increased UV exposure due to ozone
depletion.
