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 the glass exists naturally in the atmosphere; this is how earth keeps herself

this cause but individually they contribute a small amount but are a huge factor as a whole. One of the main problems about the climate change is global warming. What is global warming? It is the increase in the mean temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere. It is said that the temperature has been rising by 0.5° every year and the highest temperature recorded was 47.6° in Faya‚ Chad in 22nd June 2010. This causes the sea levels to rise due to the snow melting. It is said that the sea levels will

Earth is changing Introduction We often think of the Earth as a stable and safe place to live. The landscape we see seems timeless and impossible to influence. At the same time‚ we know there are a lot of forces that affect our planet and change it.

It is due mostly to the release of greenhouse gases (GHGs) into the atmosphere by human-fuelled activities such as increased fossil fuel consumption leading to the release of carbon dioxide (CO2)‚ the increasing use of automobiles‚ the use of nitrogen based fertilizers‚ and rearing and breeding large methane-belching cattle. He also said that greenhouse gases occur naturally within the atmosphere at levels that are not detrimental to the environment. According to Shah (2013)‚ many

with Citizen Kane in 1941‚ lens flare was first used intentionally in film. Lens flare is a result of particulate matter (matter that changes state within the atmosphere) interacting with light and‚ additionally‚ getting itself trapped inside a lens. Atmospheric optics deals with how the unique optical properties of the Earth’s atmosphere cause a wide range of spectacular optical phenomena. The blue color of the sky is a direct result of Rayleigh scattering which redirects higher frequency

My focus will be on the relationship between Unoka and Okonkwo. I chose that topic because it is interesting to find out how father and son can differ in so many ways. Eventhough they are directly blood related‚ Unoka and Okonkwo have a very different characteristic. Unoka the father was a very lazy and wasteful man‚ while Okonkwo is everything Unoka was not. Many people have been asking the same question on this strange matter since they are more familiar with the saying ‘like father‚ like son’
