A number of greenhouse gases occur naturally in the Earth’s atmosphere •Water vapor •Carbon dioxide •Methane •Nitrous oxide With no greenhouse gases at all in its atmosphere‚ scientists estimate that Earth’s average atmospheric temperature would be about -18° C‚ or about 0°F http://plaza.ufl.edu/knhuang/project2/cause.html The greenhouse gas content of the atmosphere is being altered by human activity. The result of this change is global warming. Evidence of

The Woman in Black (TWIB) is a story about isolated people in an isolated place. Not least TWIB before she died. Janet Humfrye was isolated by her plight as a mother of an illegitimate child‚ which was frowned upon by society in the early 20th century when the story is set. Even the town’s people of Crithin Gifford were isolated on the marshes and almost described as though they lived in another dimension‚ another part of the world set apart from the rest of society. The sense of isolation runs

Abstract Why is Earth the only planet in our solar system capable of sustaining life? Why is Earth the only planet in the solar system that has plentiful liquid water and an atmosphere that can protect the planet from the harmful ultra-violet rays of the Sun? What makes Earth so special? These are some of the questions that will be explored in greater detail as we use Comparative Planetology to understand what makes Earth a habitat for life and what makes it so different from the other planets

or 4‚878 kilometres. Mercury’s average orbital speed is 48 km/s. Its orbit of the Sun lasts for only 87.96 days. Mercury only turns very slowly on its axis‚ taking 58.64 days to complete the turn from day to night. Mercury has an extremely thin atmosphere around it to protect it from the Sun or to retain any heat when it rotates on its axis. The side facing the sun may reach temperatures of 400° Celsius or 750° Fahrenheit and the side facing away from the sun may drop to -200° Celsius or -328° Fahrenheit

for such things as photosynthesis‚ changed to heat energy‚ then sent back into the atmosphere. Gases such as carbon dioxide hold onto heat‚ in turn‚ warming the earth’s surface. Without this‚ the earth’s temperature would drop dramatically‚ and life here on Earth would not be sustained. The greenhouse effect seems like a good thing; however‚ the problem is that man has increased these greenhouse gases in the atmosphere‚ causing the balance of energy‚ incoming and outgoing‚ to become disturbed.

Air Pollution Anthony Hampton Everest University Environmental Science There are many different types of air pollution‚ either way none of them are good for our health or our atmosphere. Air pollution has gotten worse through the years‚ the more factories we have and the cars we drive have had an impact on the earth. Smog is one of the types of air pollution‚ it is defined when smoke is present in the earth after emitting different sources. That is why

Many different things cause the greenhouse effect. The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is increased by 0
