Linking chemical systems and balance to technology, society and the environmentAn increase in average global temperature/an increase in extreme weather , such as hurricanes and tornadoesIs the carbon cycle involved? Recent scientific evidence indicates that humans have disrupted the carbon cycle, leaving more carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Burning fossil fuels like oil and natural gas, burning biomass like ethanol and wood, creating cement, and releasing other chemicals into the atmosphere disrupts the natural flow of carbon. Greenhouse gases in our atmosphere act almost like a blanket between the earth and the cold. space. At lower levels, greenhouse gases trap some of the heat in our atmosphere while allowing other heat to spread into space. However, as the layer of greenhouse gases around our planet thickens, more heat is trapped in our atmosphere, less is radiated, and the earth slowly warms. I hope you now understand how complex carbon flow is on our planet and how we as humans. currently have an impact on its natural cycles. What happens when volcanoes erupt (extreme weather conditions)? Several processes move carbon from the geosphere into the atmosphere. Volcanic eruptions release carbon dioxide from molten rock beneath the Earth's surface. The production of cement used for homes, skyscrapers, streets and other hardscapes around the world releases a huge amount of carbon dioxide. You see, cement is made from limestone mined from the geosphere. Cement production involves heating limestone and releasing the stored carbon as carbon dioxide. Burning fossil fuels like gasoline, diesel, and coal releases carbon into the atmosphere. Whenever you drive your gas... middle of paper ... forestry occurs primarily in the Asia-Pacific region, where there is a predominant area of ​​tropical forests. What are the possible causes of this change? Disease, pollution and limited distribution are factors that threaten various plant and animal species. Furthermore, if the current rate of forest loss continues, enormous quantities of plant and animal species will disappear. What are the possible consequences? Any change in the climate of a region can affect the plants and animals that live there. Some animals might adapt or move elsewhere, but others might struggle to survive. For example, if the ice in the Arctic Ocean disappears, the animals that depend on it will have nowhere to go. Climate change also alters the life cycles of plants and animals. For example, some flowers bloom earlier in spring, while some animals migrate at different times.
