in Kentucky from 1945 to 2004 Presented by Samuel J Ivy Kevin Wingfield Ashley J Sullivan Morehouse College Morehouse College Spelman College Jamika Baltrop Amanda Eure. Many people consider that Global Warming is the greatest environmental threat of the 21. st. Century. . However, during the 80s and early 90s scientists argued about the causes and effects of global warming. . For tens of millions of years, Earth's oceans have maintained a relatively stable acidity level. It's within this steady environment that the rich and varied web of life in today's seas has arisen and flourished. But research shows that this ancient balance is being undone by a recent and rapid drop in surface pH that could have devastating global consequences.. By Matthew and saeb . What is global warming. Carbon dioxide and other air pollution that is collecting in the atmosphere like a thickening blanket, trapping the sun's heat and causing the planet to warm up. Coal-burning power plants are the largest U.S. source of carbon dioxide pollution -- they produce 2.5 billion tons every year. Automobiles, the second largest source, create nearly 1.5 billion tons of CO2 annually. By Amanda Vang and Sydney Billington. What is Global. Warming?. Global warming is a when the earth’s temperature increases and it can change the earth’s climate permanently. Released greenhouse gases, increased amount of carbon dioxide, burning fossil fuels and human activities such as driving and cutting down trees and plants can cause global . Created and presented by Brandi graham. What is global warming and why is it happening? . Global warming is the term used to describe a gradual increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere and its oceans, a change that is believed to be permanently changing the Earth's climate. Foreman Room 102. 1. Global Warming and Ozone Depletion take place in two different layers of the atmosphere: . Global Warming. Ozone . Depletion. Global Warming vs. Ozone Depletion: Causes. Global Warming: cars, factories, rice farming, landfills: . TOPIC – GLOBAL WARMING AND ITS EFFECTS. WHAT IS GLOBAL WARMING. Global warming is the warming of the earth through carbon . dioxide (CO2) being pumped into the atmosphere from tailpipes and smokestacks. Then the gases trap heat like the glass in a greenhouse. This is where the term the “greenhouse effect” came from. . Define the Problem. Gather the Evidence. Identify the Causes. Evaluate an Existing Policy. Develop Solutions. Select the Best Solution (Feasibility . vs. Effectiveness. ). PPA Steps. What do you think Global Warming is?.

Global warming is when the earth heats up and the temperature increases. More recently, the temperatures have been rising, causing more dangers for people, animals, plants and our environment..
