GLOBAL WARMING

What is global warming and why is it really worthy of consideration? Global warming is a scientific phenomenon that is increasing the average earth temperature. Greenhouse effects have been a natural phenomenon throughout the natural history of the World. It has only become a problem in the last few hundred years. The main reason is the increase in greenhouse gasses. CONTINUE READING

 

CAUSES

This content on global warming needs to find the causes of the criteria. Global warming is caused by the heating of the earth’s atmosphere. Greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide and methane can cause the atmosphere to build up, leading to solar radiation becoming trapped within the earth like within a greenhouse, hence the name. Over time, the trapping of this radiation leads to the earth’s atmosphere rising in temperature and the earth becomes warmer as a result. The causes of global warming are both natural and anthropogenic but the anthropogenic influence is the most damaging.

The phenomenon of global warming has been occurring naturally as a result of the natural rotation of the sun which changes the intensity of solar radiation hitting the earth, also natural processes such as volcanoes produce a large amount of Sulphur dioxide and other greenhouse gasses which can result in global warming too. Once these greenhouse gasses become released, they can contribute to the buildup of the atmosphere and work to trap more solar radiation within the earth.

Global warming is also largely a result of the release of methane from cracks in the earth, landfill sites, and natural gas leaks. Methane has an effect on the atmosphere which is four times as bad for global warming as carbon dioxide. Cattle and other animals that produce methane can also contribute significantly to global warming, much of this has been a problem because of human-animal farming which produces hundreds of cattle for the meat industry.

Mining causes methane and natural gas to escape from where it is trapped below the earth. Shockingly, many energy companies around the world that drill for new, continue reading;;;;;
