What is the greenhouse effect? Climate change? Global warming? The Greenhouse gases captures heat and keeps the Earths

surface warm, for life forms to live on ,without this the planet would be uninhabitable, a planet to cold for life forms to survive

Climate is the weather conditions prevailing in an area in general or over a long period, and climate change when the temperature changes in the certain areas(ex: Antarctica is generally freezing but , with green house gases forming, the temperature increases)

Global warming is the increase in temperature of the earth's atmosphere, believed to be caused by the greenhouse effect, caused by increased levels of carbon dioxide.

How are each related?

They are all related because they all effect our planet

Global Warming, and the greenhouse effect, are both gases , Green house gases and Carbon dioxide are the two gases that cause Global Warming

We need both greenhouse gases and carbon dioxide to live

Every thing has to do with climate change because, global warming is heating the eath as well as the greenhouse effect so they have a huge impact on climate change

What are the primary causes of global warming? Green House gasses effect the earth, we

need this to survive but scientist prove that this is getting to high there fore heating the earth

Fossil fuels creating Carbon Dioxide, fossils fuels burn up when we use them(ex: Cars, Factories, Cooking, electricity production and many other things)

Gases Cause Global warming such as Greenhouse gases, Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Nitrous Oxide, and Chlorofluorocarbons

What are the consequences if we don’t stop Global Warming?

The Polar Ice caps will melt , and they store a great amount of fresh water and if they melt they will go to the ocean, also there will be flooding from them melting

Many species of plants and animals are going to be extinct, because they cant not adapt to the massive climate change

Hurricanes will start to increase because of the climate changing so frequently , the cold fronts will combine with warm fronts

Earths Temperature will increase , if we don’t stop global warming the earth is sure to end

How is global warming impacting economy?

Can cost money if this issue in the future gets worse, then we need to repair it.

Food source to the people can be a problem because when the temperature gets warmer soil can lose moisture to its content. And for that plant it would be hard to grow because it’s a unfamiliar temperature.

Water source can be a problem because dryness over time and reduce the amount of water.

Some natural resources can start to be limited

What are several ways we can all fight Global Warming?

Get the word out to more people Learn more ways to slow it down Change the way people get around.

Example is by driving less because cars produce carbon dioxide

Smarter way to live and reduce energy things if possible.

Do more positive to the earth

What is the basic argument against Global Warming?

Whether if human are the reason why global warming is going faster

Whether people should worry about it now or later on

Whether it’s a good thing or not Is the government doing anything

to help it What can we do to help Whether it’s good for nature or not

What are your personal opinions about global warming?

My personal opinions about global warming is that people don’t do a lot of things to help it. I feel everyone can do a better job using less energy and give less carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. Another thing is it’s really hurting the animals around the north and south pole. Some of the reason is because of us. At the same time it’s hurting the nature because when we use the materials some needs to be burn to produce energy, when we do that carbon is release again. But global warming isn’t always human being who cause it to happen.
