IntroductionGlobal Warming: We have all heard these two words many times. The problem is caused by us and therefore must be resolved by us. Of course, this will require a few more people than those reading this report. The question is: are enough people informed about global warming? Do they understand the real causes? Do you understand the real causes? Do you know how you are contributing to this global problem? In this report, my goal is to provide you with the answers to these questions and suggest some ways you can help prevent this problem. What is global warming? Global warming refers to the increase in the planet's average temperature levels, causing climate change. Climate change involves an increase or decrease in average global temperatures in a particular area. But the rapid rise in temperature experienced by current generations around the world is caused by current and previous generations who lived through and after the industrial revolution. Obviously, the planet needs warm temperatures to sustain life on Earth, but since the Industrial Revolution, greenhouse gas emissions and high temperatures on Earth have exceeded a sustainable limit. The greenhouse effect The earth's atmosphere is made up of various gases, called greenhouse gases. which help allow solar radiation to enter the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases include: carbon dioxide; methane and nitrous oxide. Most of the sun's rays are omitted from the Earth and are reflected back into space, but the rays that are not emitted remain on the Earth's surface to keep it warm. We need this effect (the greenhouse effect) to sustain life on Earth, but if we make the atmosphere too thick and full of greenhouse gases, Earth would be impossible to...... middle paper ......n. com.au/news/kevin-rudd-delays-emissions-trading-scheme-costing-us-millions/story-e6frf7jo-1225859070747http://www.climatechange.gov.au/en/minister/wong/2010/media- releases.aspxhttp://support.jnf.org/goneutral/images/gheffect.jpghttp://www.daviddarling.info/encyclopedia/V/Venusatmos.htmlhttp://www.dier.tas.gov.au/energy/ discounts/energy_efficient_homes_packagehttp://www.hercar.com.au/app/articles/articles/view/whats-the-most-fuel-efficient-car-in-australiahttp://www.hercar.com.au/images/ mini_cooper_d.jpghttp://www.peakoil.org.au/australia.fossil.consumption.htmhttp://api.ning.com/files/g2NluH3KQDDhiPqAPfBnzoHKmdHXXkXGL6TpywuOU0iT25J0bIFm5ow62*6FqKh-xrYKWfd8P8n0m4dI00Ai5eaBA JhN rY2y/0607_greenhouse_effect.jpghttp://www.nrdc.org / globalwarming/qthinice.asp http://www.sierraclub.org/population/factsheets/images/co2_emissions_graph.gif
