Reduction Of The Carbon Dioxide Emissions
2,482 wordsIs the Kyoto Protocol the Wrong Approach? Climate change is a relevant issue today that should be on the minds of people. In 1972, scientists discovered that CFC's (chlorofluorocarbons) might destroy the ozone layer. In 1985, scientists discovered that the destruction of the ozone layer was occurring quite rapidly and recommended that country leaders should take action as soon as possible to decrease CFC levels.

Effects Of Global Warming On Other Countries
1,830 wordsSpeech: Thank you, Mr Speaker. Fellow delegates, I am here to talk to you today to explain global warming and its effects, and why the US must ratify the Kyoto Protocol if we are to reduce global warming. Global warming is the term used about the fact that the Earth is heating up. Global warming is also generalised as "the greenhouse effect". When heat from the sun enters a greenhouse through the glass most of the heat is captured inside and this is the exact same effect that is causing global w...

Cent Of The World's Greenhouse Gases
633 wordsSCIENCE RESEARCH PROJECT ALL COUNTRIES SHOULD REDUCE GREENHOUSE EMISSIONS. Without the greenhouse effect the Earth would not be warm enough for humans to live, but if it becomes even a little warmer there will be major problems. The greenhouse effect is the rise in temperature the Earth experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere (water vapour, carbon dioxide, nitrous and methane, for example) trap energy from the sun, forming greenhouse-like layer. Average global temperatures have incre...

Wide Emissions Of Green House Gases
1,618 wordsGlobal Warming Long ago the earth was conceived in a fiery blast of volcanoes and molten lava. The earth cooled and life was spawned. From the first bacterium that swam in a new ocean thru just before the industrial revolution climate, lacking any external factors, has steadily changed. But since the industrialization of civilization, the climate of the earth has faced an ever growing foreign factor. This factor is the emissions of the so called "greenhouse gases" that have caused the rapid incr...
