Danielle Perkins September 9‚ 2013 AAPSC 603 Discussion Paper The Factors Affecting Greenhouse Gas Emission in the Livestock Industry People around the world have become very aware of the changes our world is going through on a constant basis. One of the biggest subjects people are talking about is global warming and how the human race is the number one cause of it. In more than one way this is unmistakably true. From the daily activities of driving gasoline powered cars to the simple necessity

Greenhouse gas emission What is greenhouse gas? A greenhouse gas is a gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation within the thermal infrared range. Many greenhouse gases occur naturally‚ such as water vapor‚ carbon dioxide‚ methane‚ nitrous oxide‚ and ozone. Others such ashydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)‚perfluorocarbons (PFCs)‚ andsulfur hexafluoride (SF6) result only from human industrial processes. Greenhouse gases act like a blanket around Earth‚ trapping energy in the atmosphere and causing

The greenhouse gas effect The greenhouse gas effect is the accumulation of natural and man-made gas in the atmosphere which does not block sunlight but trap heat to keep the temperature on Earth suitable for life. Imagine a greenhouse that is made of glass that supports plants growth. Visible sunlight can go through the glass but the heat in which it contains can’t go back through the glass‚ thus a greenhouse keeps plants warm allowing them to live and grow happily. The same process with gas replacing

Greenhouse Gas The greenhouse gas effect is the number one blame for global warming. We could not live without the greenhouse effect. The main gases are ozone‚ nitrous oxide‚ carbon dioxide‚ methane‚ and water vapor. These reflected rays‚ called infrared radiation ‚ keeps the atmosphere warm. They are vital in maintaining the balance in our atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is mostly a result of the sunlight’s energy and the clouds that absorb and reflect heat. Without the greenhouse effect

What’s the Fracking Problem? W hy does everyone care so much about natural gas? Why is it such an essential part of modern culture? Sure‚ it’s an exciting and up and coming technology‚ which is fuel for the technological generation that we’ve grown up in‚ but we need to take a closer look to see the methods and impacts that could affect generations after us. Water is one of our important resources that were given to us by mother nature. We see water as a source for survival and many more advantages

In Section 1‚ you learned about the natural environment‚ how it is impacted by humans‚ and how that impact is measured. Now‚ you’ll apply what you learned. 1. In Section 1‚ there were several examples of systems‚ such as a car engine‚ the water cycle‚ or the carbon cycle. Think of a system you’re familiar with‚ and then answer the following questions. a. What system did you choose? (1 sentence. 2.0 points) water cycle b. What are the inputs of the system? (1 sentence. 2.0 points) evaporation
