Pollution:
Greenhouse Gases
Done by: Fares Jouaneh 9A
Introduction
The issue that is going on in the world
is global warming. One of the things
that are affecting it is pollution and
from pollution I am focusing on how
greenhouse gases affect the earth
and how it interacts with global
warming. Greenhouse gases are a
big issue to because they affect our
environment, society and our people.
What is Greenhouse gases


From the introduction you might have wondered what
are greenhouse gases. First you must know that
greenhouse gases are what rises the earths temperature
and if it wasn’t for them the earths temperature would
be 33 degrees Celsius (55f). These gases are in the
earths atmosphere and emit radiation within the thermal
infrared area. These gases are water vapor, carbon
dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. These gases
are able to rise our temperature within seconds and
takes a large part in global warming. Also from solar
radiation another type of greenhouse effect. It is what is
causing the ice to melt and is what is causing earths sea
levels to rise. In conclusion I say that this is a big affect
to global warming and can harm our home.

Global warming Affected By
Greenhouse gases


Greenhouse gases is what raises the earths
temperature and global warming is a raise in
earths temperature and so that’s what
greenhouse gases does. So at one point in the
20th century there was an increase in the earths
average temperature. This was because humans
activity due to fossil fuels as well as
deforestation. Also solar radiation affects te
earths temperature because the stronger the
radiation the higher the earths average
temperature. In the end I can say that the cause
of global warming is mainly because of
GreenHouse gases.

United States


As I have read the united states are being affected a lot.
This is because that there is a large amount of human
activities going on in the U.S so the more human activity
the more greenhouse gases are given out. The main gas
that has been used from 1990-2006 is CO2 (carbon
dioxide). This gas is one of the main effects to climate
change and since there has been large amounts used it has
cause a lot of carbon emissions which are slowly changing a
little from the help of other countries the average of the
earths temperatures and climate change. This greenhouse
gas has been also used to burn fossil fuels and from
burning of fossil fuels methane has been released in the air
causing more rise in earths temperature and climate
change. Also in the end the amount of Co2 being used in
the United States is approximately 85% of greenhouse gas
emissions. Plus that United States is using the most CO2 in
the world.

Resent News


There has been an incident that NASA has increased
there eyes on the earth to take the data of climate
change down. They have been keeping this private
and hidden. So if they do not start giving out that
data to the competitive enterprise institute they will
be sued. This is because information is being locked
and there might be more ice melting due to radiation.
Finally I can say that this is a linked issue to economy.

Environment


The Greenhouse gases are affecting our environment by a
lot. First of all is that due to the amount of greenhouse gas
emissions that are being burnt and released in the air
everyday are causing ice caps to melt and if ice caps melt
then there will be a rise in sea level. Later is that from the
pollution it is causing and the climate change it is forcing
change in the migratory patterns for animals. And from this
greeter storms are happening can be affect to our society.
From the gases and fuels and toxic fumes it can cause
diseases in our bodies. In the end I am able to say that we
must react fast that we must do something that we have to
decrease the amount of greenhouse emissions that are
being use in our daily life's.

Recent News


Is that the greenhouse gases are being a big and huge
threat to our environment. And from watching a video
that’s was post in July 2009 I am able to say that we are
using more greenhouse gases these days than before in the
past. Also that we must react and that we must stop the
crazy amounts that are being used. Last but not least is
that greenhouse gases are destroying our environment
making it a worse place for our natural life.

Society


Pretty much due to the environment and how it is
being affected. So if there is more greenhouse
gas emissions being released then first of all
there will be a result of diseases. Second there
well be more storms happening and larger
tsunamis going on, as well as floods droughts
affecting peoples life styles and forcing them to
migrate from place to place. In the end I am able
to say that the more pollution the more stronger
and deadlier the storms and disasters will be.

Solutions to solving this issue








First of all by using less greenhouse gases and slowing
down the pollution of air.
Using alternate fuels rather than burning fossil fuels.
Using lees Carbon Dioxide.
If need to use greenhouse gases use it indoors so not able
to get out.
Use renewable energy resources.
Using alternate transportation like busses instead of taking
individual car.
Using other types of energy and using less motorized
things.

Conclusion

In the end I am able to say that most global warming
happens due to the amount of greenhouse gases that
are injected into the air. Also that the most thing that
is being infected by this pollution is the environment
because whatever is being released from greenhouse
gases the environment is the first to be infected by it.
So in my opinion I say GREENHOUSE GASES you have
to stop pollution our environment our earth our home
and start using alternate resources to complete your
job. Also I am able to say now that it is a part of Place
and Space concept because it has affected the
environment by a lot and that it is being polluted by
mainly the CO2 emissions, you can also read more
about the effects with environment on the
environment slide above. Also these gases affect our
people by giving us diseases and increasing our
storms which can kill a large amount of our people
and also the stronger the amount being injected of
greenhouse gases the larger the effect on our people.
For further information please read the slid about the
society.
The End
Thank you for watching
