Most scientists recognize that global warming does seem to be happening, but a few don't believe that it is anything to be worried about. These scientists say that the Earth is more resistant to climate changes on this scale than we think. Plants and animals will adapt to subtle shifts in...
How to reduce CO2 and greenhouse gases The Greenhouse Effect and Global Warming The Human Factor. Global Warming How does global warming affect us? Global Warming The world is now warmer than it has been for many thousands of years. Some scientists believe that in the future it will get even...

"Seawater carbon chemistry is a key determinant of coral calcification, and the potential for futureanthropogenic-influenced declines in carbonate saturation state, and hence coral calcification, is cause for serious concern (2,4,7). However, we conclude that the rate of change in the thermal envi...
How does climate change ("global warming") work? The mechanism of the greenhouse effect [Or: "Why do some gases concern scientists – like carbon dioxide (CO2) – but not others, like oxygen?"] Scientists tell us that human activities are changing Earth's atmosphere and increasing Earth's...

Taking carbon dioxide from the ocean could increase its natural ability to remove emissions from the atmosphere, like wringing out a sponge to make it more absorptive.
a. How does air pollution affect human health? b. What are some of the major pollutants? c. What measures are being done to combat this? Pollution: Pollution occurs when pollutants are introduced into the natural environment and cau...

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has shown that 79% of carbon dioxide comes from burning fossil fuels that are used to generate electricity in coal-fired power plants, which are responsible for up to 60% of all CO2 emissions [3]. Despite the intensive development of Carbon Capture...
