=__ THE GREENHOUSE EFF ____ E ____ CT __= =The greenhouse effect is the change of the temperature of the earth. Some gases in the atmosphere trap the energy from the sun. Without these gases heat would escape and go into space. The world would be around 60 degrees colder. It is necessary for our survival because if we didn’t have it the earth would be 60 degrees colder and we would not adapt to the new temperature. Crops would freeze and not be able to have enough fresh food. =

__ GLOBAL WARMING: THE BIG PICTURE __
==Global warming is an increase in the earth’s temperature. The oceanic temperatures are strongly predicted to increase due to an increase in the greenhouse effect. This is resulting especially from pollution. It is concerning because it can cause the earth to become too hot and never have winter. This would hurt our way of living and be hard to survive. == ==   ==

There are many things that contribute of causing global warming. Humans contribute by enhancing greenhouse effect. Gases from the greenhouse are another cause of global warming. The Sunlight, gases, and particles in the atmosphere contribute to global warming. The gases cause it to change the temperature of the atmosphere. The humans affect the earth. Humans mainly contribute carbon dioxide for the greenhouses.
 * GLOBAL WARMING: CONTRIBUTING FACTORS **


 * GLOBAL WARMING: LOCAL EFFECTS **
 * Global warming can impact us by harming plants and animals that live in the sea. It would make new habitats and food. ** Weather patterns could change. It could cause flooding, drought, and an increase in damaging storms. It would be harder to survive because of all the chemicals and change of climate. The temperature would change a lot and be hard to adapt with.


 * WHAT YOUR AUDIENCE CAN DO DIFFERENTLY: One specific area of focus **

Turning off the lights when you leave a room will help the greenhouse effect. If you turn off the lights you will save a lot of money. You will also help the environment by not using a lot of fossil fuels. One bulb if you turn it off is worth $1.80 per month. Some houses can have up to 40 bulbs and then it will add up to a lot of money saved. It is easy to do and doesn’t take long at all, but helps a lot and saves money.


 * A SUMMARY OF YOUR RESEARCH **

I did this research to find out what effects greenhouse and global warming. I choose turning off lights when you leave a room to show how much you are helping the earth and saving money. If everyone did it, they would save a lot of money and help stop global warming. They would be contributing to the greenhouse effect. Using the fossil fuels as less as you can, will help a lot. This is what global warming is and what the greenhouse effect is and why you should turn of the light when you leave a room.
