Global Warming Planet earth has an abundance of natural resources‚ which makes it unique and perfect for life to exist. However our use of these natural resources is creating a bit of a problem for us. Global warming is affecting our world in a negative way and mankind is exacerbating this problem. Today I am here to tell you what global warming is‚ why it is a problem and how we can solve it. Global warming is the increase in average temperature of earth’s land‚ sea and atmosphere. This is

regions in Europe use wind farms and hydroelectric dams. Mainly trying to find renewable sources as fossil fuels are expensive and to decrease the carbon footprint and the carbon trading tax. The biogas produced by the resources release a gas named Methane which is then either burned or refines‚ the purpose of this is to create the generative energy‚

Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (Bio-energy Technology Development Group- BGFP) ******* The first Biogas Bottling Plant towards commercialization in India – A success story Keeping in view the energy shortage in the country there is a need to tap biomass resources such as cattle dung‚ kitchen waste‚ agricultural waste etc for generation of biogas through the involvement of entrepreneurs and industries to set up decentralised biogas based energy infrastructure in the country‚ at the potential

Organic Chemistry - Introduction 1 2812 Basic definitions for organic chemistry Scope Organic chemistry is a vast subject so it is easier to split it into small sections for study. This is usually done by studying compounds which behave in a similar way because they have a particular atom‚ or group of atoms‚ (FUNCTIONAL GROUP) in their structure. Catenation The ability to form bonds between atoms of the same element. Carbon catenates to form chains and rings‚ with single‚ double

resources. So we started to produce energy from Natural gas. Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) is a substitute for gasoline (petrol) or diesel fuel. It is considered to be an environmentally "clean" alternative to those fuels. It is made by compressing methane (CH4) extracted from natural gas. It is stored distributed in hard containers‚ usually cylinders. CNG has grown into one of the major fuel sources used in car

tornados also‚ some areas may experiment extreme heat waves that could derivate in death by dehydratation. Other contributors for the changes in temperature are the greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are naturally generated by solid waste in the form of methane gas. The human generated ones that comes from automobile exhausts and heaters from homes including factories wastes. Although‚ greenhouse gases are mainly natural the real problem resides in the excess of this gases overheating the planet. With

action might appear to reduce solar radiation‚ the opposite is true. Permafrost Permafrost‚ which is solid‚ frozen soil‚ constitutes about 25 percent of the land area in the Northern Hemisphere. Until recently‚ permafrost has locked carbon and methane beneath the surface of the planet. In some areas‚ permafrost is now emitting carbon‚ which could potentially accelerate the greenhouse effect and global warming. Water Vapor Water vapor is increasing in the atmosphere due to carbon dioxide-induced

There are many misconceptions regarding deforestation and pollution. Beef cattle are often the last that comes to your mind. Water/food - beef cows use 1000 gallons of water are used to make 1 gallon of milk. 2500 gallons of water are used to produce 1 LB of beef. 77 gallons of water are needed to produce lb of eggs. almost 900 gallons of water are needed to produce 1 lb of cheese. World wide cows drink 45 billion gallons of water per day. Animal agriculture consumes 34-76 trillion gallons of
