The document discusses global warming, the greenhouse effect, and climate change. It explains that greenhouse gases trap infrared radiation emitted from the Earth's surface, causing the atmosphere to warm. Increased greenhouse gases from human activities like burning fossil fuels are enhancing the natural greenhouse effect and leading to increased global temperatures, which is causing climate change effects like rising sea levels and more extreme weather. While some argue global warming is natural or not caused by humans, the document expresses the opinion that it is both a natural phenomenon and exacerbated by human pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.

The document discusses the causes and effects of climate change and global warming. The primary causes are the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, which increase levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This traps heat and warms the planet, leading to consequences like more extreme weather, rising sea levels, and melting ice caps. While some skeptics do not believe humans are responsible, the document expresses the view that humans contribute somewhat but that climate change is also part of a natural cycle. Fighting global warming involves reducing waste and emissions through actions like using less energy and driving less.

GLOBAL WARMING (GOOD PRESENTATION)
Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane trapping heat in the atmosphere. This is warming the planet and causing sea levels to rise, harming plants and animals. One contributor is burning fossil fuels which release pollutants into the air. Cutting down forests also exacerbates the problem since trees absorb carbon dioxide. To address global warming, people are carpooling, conserving energy, and governments are implementing acts like the Clean Air Act to reduce industrial and vehicle emissions. Protecting the environment is important for health, safety, and longevity.
Global Warming Basics
Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere, increasing temperatures over time. As the planet warms, effects include rising sea levels from melting polar ice caps, more frequent and intense droughts and hurricanes, and the spread of diseases to new regions. Evidence of global warming can be seen in longer droughts in Africa, shrinking glaciers and lakes, and rising ocean temperatures contributing to stronger hurricanes. Combating global warming requires mitigation efforts like conserving energy, using renewable alternatives, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel combustion and other human activities.

Global warming
Global warming refers to the unusually rapid increase in the Earth's average surface temperature over the past century, primarily due to greenhouse gases released from burning fossil fuels. The consequences of global warming include rising sea levels flooding coastal areas, more frequent and intense heat waves, and more droughts and wildfires. The causes are increased concentrations of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and ozone in the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels. These gases contribute to the greenhouse effect, where they reflect heat radiation back towards the Earth's surface instead of allowing it to escape into space, warming the atmosphere. Reducing fossil fuel usage and planting trees can help address the problem.

global warming
Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane trapping heat in the atmosphere, causing the earth's temperature to rise. This harms many living things and can cause death. The primary cause is carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels. The US contributes a large amount to global carbon emissions. Rising global temperatures cause sea level rise, more extreme weather, crop failures, species extinction, and damage to coral reefs. Individual actions like reducing waste, planting trees, using efficient light bulbs, biking more, and pushing for alternative energy can all help address the problem.
Global warming
Global warming is causing significant changes to the Earth's climate. Glaciers and ice sheets are melting, sea levels are rising, and extreme weather events are becoming more common. The scientific consensus is that human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, have increased greenhouse gas levels and caused most of the warming observed since the mid-20th century. As temperatures continue to rise, the impacts on the environment, plants and animals, weather patterns, and human society will intensify and become more costly. Individual actions to reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions can help address the problem.

Global Warming. Grupa 8220. Munteanu Ana- Cristina
Global warming is caused by both natural phenomena and human activities that increase greenhouse gases. Naturally, solar activity, forest fires, and melting permafrost release carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere. However, the primary cause is human emissions from burning fossil fuels for energy and transportation as well as deforestation. If unchecked, global warming will have severe consequences like rising sea levels from melting ice caps and changes to weather and agriculture threatening many species with extinction. Solutions require reducing greenhouse gas emissions through alternatives to fossil fuels and adapting to the impacts of climate change already occurring.

This document discusses various cloud formation processes and types of precipitation. It explains that temperature changes during cloud formation can be adiabatic. Orographic lifting and frontal wedging are processes where air is forced to rise over geographic features or air masses. Convergence and localized convergence involve the coming together of air masses. Condensation allows water vapor to change to liquid water droplets. The main cloud types are categorized by height as high, middle, and low clouds. Fog forms through similar cooling processes as clouds near the surface. Cold cloud precipitation involves freezing nuclei while warm cloud precipitation relies on collisions. Rain, snow, sleet, glaze and hail are different forms of precipitation.

1kspieker
When air rises and expands, it cools through adiabatic processes. This cooling can cause water vapor in the air to condense into clouds and precipitate out as rain, snow, sleet or hail depending on temperature levels. Clouds are classified based on their height and physical structure into cirrus, altostratus and nimbostratus clouds that form at high, middle and low altitudes respectively.
3jlaubach
Unequal heating of the Earth's surface causes air temperatures to change without a change in energy. This leads some parts of the Earth to be warmer or cooler than others. When warm air rises and is blocked or forced upward by cooler air, various cloud types can form through condensation. Precipitation occurs through processes like collision-coalescence in warm clouds or Bergeron process in mixed-phase clouds, forming rain, snow, sleet, hail, or freezing rain depending on temperature.

- 1. Global Warming and the Greenhouse Effects Period: 4 By: Jesse Kemmerling Torin Martutartus
- 2. Greenhouse effect, Climate change, and Global Warming Greenhouse effect- When the sun sends radiation to the Earth in waves, some infrared radiation rays make it through and get emitted by the surface. The radiation absorbed is then emitted at night and greenhouse gases absorb it and the atmosphere gets warmer. Climate Change- It can be a short term or a long term change in the earth’s climate, especially a change due to an increase in the average atmosphere temperature. For example it can also be caused by plate tectonics, Earth’s orbital motions, and solar activity and etc. Global Warming: An increase of atmospheric temperature due to carbon dioxide, pollutants emitted into the atmosphere.
- 3. How Greenhouse Gases, Climate Change, and Global Warming are Related? Greenhouse gases can be a cause of global warming with this, it increases the temperature of the atmosphere. With the higher temperatures of the atmosphere, climate change could happen. Carbon dioxide and pollutants emitted into the atmosphere higher temp. in the atmosphere causing global warming climate change…examples: hotter temperatures, melting of ice caps, etc.
- 4. Causes of Global Warming One cause is the increases of greenhouse gases. Some people believe that humans and some of their activities are a primary cause because they burn fossil fuels which pollutes the atmosphere. Also carbon emissions that get emitted into the atmosphere, too.
- 5. Consequences of Global Warming Environmental Destruction: Giant ice shelves in the Arctic are melting and the ocean is rising. Estimated 6 feet rising in 100 years. USA is responsible for 22% of greenhouse gas emissions. Health Risks: Malaria, dengue fever, and encephalitis are going to spread because of the spread of mosquitoes. The rising temperatures from global warming will make them spread to other areas. Catastrophic Weather: Super powerful Hurricanes will be made from very warm temperature areas and water. Since 1970, category 4 and 5’s have become a little more common. Pollution caused by humans might shift weather patterns and cause floods and severe heating.
- 6. Global Warming impacting Economy Huge amounts of money is going into clean energy projects, carbon trading, and environmental and energy hedge funds. More companies are trying to go green, so they will produce their products differently so people will buy them. People want to go green. Clean technology is now the third most popular for venture capital behind the internet and biotechnology. World Bank calculated 39 countries had lost five percent or more of their wealth from damages from carbon emissions and depletion or non-renewable resources. Also, for 10 countries, it declined a rang from 25 percent to 60 percent.
- 7. Ways to fight global warming Cars- Don’t drive cars a lot unless needed. You can walk and bike and use motorized scooter. Cars give off fossil fueled pollution into the atmosphere. Use transit to go to work because then there is less cars on the road. Bulbs- CFL light bulbs use 60% less energy and saves about 300 pounds of carbon dioxide a year for being emitted. Recycle- 3% of Greenhouse gas emissions through the methane that is released by decomposing bio-degradable waste. Recycling reduces the amount of that. Electric cars- Save up your money for one. No gasoline so no emissions of pollution in the air, runs on electricity. Carpool-Carpool with friends and co-workers. Less cars on the road so less pollution being given off.
- 8. Arguments against Global Warming One basic argument against global warming is that newspapers use the idea of it to sell their product Another, is that our most reliable sources of temperature data show no global warming trend. Is global warming a natural phenomenon. Some say that human activities threaten to disrupt the Earths climate, and some say humans have no part in it.
- 9. Our Opinions on Global Warming Our opinion is that global warming is a natural phenomenon and partly our fault. It is our fault because we emit these deadly pollutants into the atmosphere like carbon dioxide which is causing global warming. It is also natural because of the carbon dioxide that plants give off and solar activity. Global warming will go away naturally because before we had high temperatures on Earth before and cooler temperatures before so overtime Earth will solve this problem on its own.
