It then lists several major causes of global warming, including pollution from vehicles, power plants, and industries, deforestation, landfills, and population growth. The document goes on to describe some key effects of global warming like rising sea levels, species extinction, impacts on plants and animals, and effects on human health. It concludes by stating that global warming is a major challenge and that small changes in individual lifestyles can help avoid worse impacts in the future.
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.
Global Warmingfinal
Global warming is caused by increased greenhouse gases from human use of fossil fuels and deforestation, trapping heat in the atmosphere. This is causing polar ice caps and glaciers to melt, raising sea levels and threatening wildlife. Other effects include more frequent and intense hurricanes, droughts, wildfires, and spread of diseases as climates change. To address global warming, alternatives to fossil fuels like solar, wind and water power must be adopted, and individual actions taken to reduce carbon footprints.

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.

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. Global Warming By-Jessica Harrand Xavier Villanueva
- 2. Greenhouse Effect, Climate Change, Global Warming Greenhouse Effect-Warming of the Earth’s surface as a result of atmospheric pollution by gases Climate change-long term alteration in global weather patterns, especially a increase in temperature and storm activity. Global Warming-an increase in the worlds temperature believed to be caused by greenhouse gases
- 3. How are they related? Climate change and global warming are both caused by greenhouse gases Climate Change Greenhouse gases Global Warming
- 4. What is Causing Global Warming? The main cause for global warming is the excessive amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere Other contributors include methane, nitrous oxide and deforestation
- 5. Consequences if we don’t stop Sea levels will rise Hurricanes and other storms will be stronger Species that depend on each other could go out of sync Floods and droughts will be more common Less freshwater will be available Diseases will spread Ecosystem will change some species will become extinct and others could be more successful
- 6. How will global warming effect the economy? High CO2 Cause plants like corn and beans to grow very big causing farmers to have a abnormal growing season. This cause the need for more food all around the world. Prices will rise. Insects have more to feed on, severe drought, and scarcity for water could happen due to all these plants.
- 7. How can we fight global warming? Buy cars that are efficient Buy environment safe chemicals Buy light bulbs that are CFLs or LED Buy energy efficient light bulbs
- 8. Basic arguments of Global warming Some scientists do not believe human activities threaten to disrupt the Earths climate Our most reliable sources of temperature how no global warming trend. Is it a scam? A modest amount of global warming, should it occur, would be beneficial to the natural world and to human civilians.
- 9. Thoughts and Opinions Though global warming is caused by natural effects as well as human effects, the human effects are causing thousands of years of damage to be done in a very short amount of time. If we don’t change our energy system to a more eco-friendly one soon, the effects could be deadly.
