Climate change
The document discusses climate change, global warming, and the greenhouse effect. It explains that climate change occurs due to global warming, which happens as a result of the greenhouse effect trapping heat. The greenhouse effect is caused by an increase in heat-trapping gases like methane and CO2 released by human activities. If unchecked, global warming could lead to rising sea levels from melting ice, stronger hurricanes, droughts and floods, and threats to species and economies. While some argue natural factors are responsible, the document asserts that human greenhouse gas emissions are the primary cause of current global warming trends.
THE CARBON TAX- THE SCIENCE BEHIND IT.
The proposed carbon tax that the Gillard government has put forward, which will come into effect mid 2012 has been a topic of hot debate.

Climatechange
Climate change is a significant change in weather patterns over a long period of time, such as 100 years. It has occurred many times before due to both external causes like changes in the sun's activity and earth's orbit, as well as internal causes such as volcanic eruptions and natural feedback loops. Anthropogenic activities like emitting greenhouse gases and land use changes are also contributing to current climate change. While carbon dioxide is used to track human impacts, climate change affects more than just temperature and includes changes to precipitation, humidity, and winds. If left unaddressed, climate change could have major consequences for weather patterns, sea level rise, extreme weather, and force plants and animals to adapt or go extinct, with impacts on
Climate Change
Climate is defined as the average weather conditions in a particular region over many years, while weather is the current state of the atmosphere. The average global temperature has increased by around 1°C over the last 100 years, which scientists believe is responsible for more extreme weather events. Normally climate changes very gradually over long periods, but the current warming is occurring much faster than past natural changes. Greenhouse gases and other human emissions are thought to be the main cause of current global warming. Small actions like carpooling and conserving energy can help reduce our emissions and slow further climate change.

Role of human behavior in climate change
The document discusses the role of human behavior in accelerating global climate change through various activities such as deforestation, industrialization, agriculture, waste generation, and fossil fuel use. These activities release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. While climate has naturally varied over thousands of years, human activities are now causing the climate to change faster than ever before, threatening human survival by increasing health risks through pollution, disease spread, heat waves, and flooding. The scientific evidence shows humans are responsible for most observed climate change in the past 150 years.
Global warming
Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane that trap heat in the atmosphere. This has led to increased global temperatures and melting of polar ice caps. Effects of global warming include rising sea levels that threaten coastal areas, changed animal migration and breeding patterns, and more frequent extreme weather. While some argue past climate changes were also natural, most scientists agree the current rapid warming is mostly human-caused by greenhouse gas emissions from things like fossil fuel combustion and deforestation. Preventing further global warming requires reducing these emissions through alternatives like renewable energy and tree planting.

Thermometers use alcohol or mercury in a glass tube, with the liquid expanding when heated and contracting when cooled to indicate the temperature. Different scales measure temperature, with Fahrenheit used mainly in the U.S., Celsius in most other countries, and Kelvin used by scientists. Thermometers allow temperature to be measured for bodies, air, appliances, pools, and other applications.
Thermometer pd. 5
A thermometer is an instrument used to measure temperature by using a sealed glass tube containing a liquid such as mercury or alcohol that expands and contracts based on temperature changes. Early thermoscopes led to the development of thermometers using various liquids in glass tubes. Key contributors included Galileo, who invented the first thermometer in 1593, and Fahrenheit and Celsius, who developed standardized temperature scales. Modern thermometers include mercury, alcohol, minimum, maximum, and infrared types and are used to measure temperature, determine weather conditions, and predict weather.

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.

Clouds and precipitation
This document discusses various weather phenomena related to clouds and precipitation. It explains that temperature decreases with increasing altitude, mountains can block or redirect air flow, and mixing of warm and cold air masses can cause thunderstorms. Different types of clouds are formed at high, middle, and low altitudes. When clouds warm above freezing, rain occurs, while snow falls when clouds dip below -40°C. Sleet forms from supercooled rain and hail from frozen rain droplets.

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.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

- 1. Greenhouse EffectClimate ChangeGlobal Warming By: Charles Trommer and Marissa Cubbage
- 2. What do they mean? Greenhouse affect- when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, etc.)trap heat and energy from the sun in the troposphere Climate change- when overall state of a region, like the amount of annual precipitation, temperature range, etc, changes dramatically Global Warming- When the average temperature of the whole Earth rises
- 3. How are the three terms related? The greenhouse gases that keep heat and energy in the atmosphere lead to … Global warming- or the rising of the global temperature. This leads to…. Climate changes in areas around the globe!
- 4. Main Causes of Global Warming The emitted gases like carbon dioxide makes an ozone in the troposphere that blocks energy and heat from escaping the atmosphere. The carbon dioxide emitted form decomposing animals and plants
- 5. Consequences of Global Warming Glaciers are melting, causing sea levels to rise and constricting the homes of polar bears and penguins Climate can change in unexpected ways; tropical storms, droughts, and cloud cover. Temperature is rising faster than animals and plants can adapt. Without the normal cold spells, fungi and diseases can spread more easily and effect the crops
- 6. Global Warming’s impact on Economy As the concept of Global warming spreads around the world, government officials are making laws about company emissions. Many times, it is slightly more expensive to make a company more, “green”. Also, many states have a law that every car must pass an emission’s test, or the owner must pay a fee. This fee can vary from 50-200 dollars. Cars, plastic bottles, and other packaging materials are becoming more “green”, and thus the price of these everyday objects increases and effects the economy.
- 7. How can we fight Global Warming?
- 8. What the Skeptics Say Our on-land calculations of the atmosphere supply feeble evidence the planet has gone trough periods of warming and cooling before, and we’re still here! what can a couple degrees do to this humongous earth!
- 10. This issue started appearing when humans started emitting a lot of greenhouse gases- For decades researchers have been working on this controversial subject, and their opinions are based on facts, while the skeptics have petty reasons that really have no solid foundation
