We all impact the planet in the decisions we make day to day - from how we pack our lunch to how many miles we drive and how many lights we turn on at home. The impact you make by releasing CO2 is called your carbon footprint. If you’d like to calculate your own carbon footpr...
根据第六段中“We know that methane is a major contributor to the warming of the world, trapping heat like CO2 does.(我们知道甲烷是全球变暖的主要原因,它像二氧化碳一样吸收热量)”可知,甲烷极大地推动了全球变暖,所以减少甲烷排放具有紧迫性。故选C项。 (4)题详解: 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中...
U.S. Global Warming Programs and How They May Impact Your CompanyWilliam J. Walsh
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 do changes in global temperature affect ocean acidification? How do phytoplankton blooms affect our lives? How does ocean acidification affect the environment? Can phytoplankton reduce the impact of climate change? How does ocean acidification directly affect calcifiers?
The biggest causes of CO2 emissions So, what is it that’s driving these emissions? And how does that impact your carbon footprint? There are a few main industries that create the majority of the greenhouse gasses we produce. Global data from 2016 shows the main culprits: Energy (the ...
How does the ozone impact the climate system? How does ocean acidification impact finfish? How might climate change impact human evolution? How does reforestation aid in the fight against global warming? How does global warming affect glaciers? How can the carbon cycle affect the weather? How doe...
While CO2 remains in the atmosphere for centuries, methane breaks down after about a decade - meaning it has less of a long-term impact on temperatures. Scientists normally compare the overall warming effects of methane versus CO2 over a century, calculating that...
