→ The Greenhouse effect are caused by natural causes of the warming of the lower atmosphere by. The greenhouse effect is caused by heat getting trapped into our atmosphere by greenhouse gases in our atmosphere. These gases include water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane. Without the suns radiation and this trapped heat, we would freeze to death. ← GLOBAL WARMING: THE BIG PICTURE

Global warming is a result of humans putting more carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere. These gases trap more heat than usual. This results in “Global Warming”, where temperatures are higher every year. This results in melting cold places such as Ant Arctic.

The Greenhouse effect are/was recent activities being held by humans, such as driving with a gas guzzler car/truck

Global Warming: Contributing factors We have a big problem due to global warming and this is being caused by carbon dioxide and methane, water vapor and other gasses. Carbon dioxide comes from the burning of fossil fuels such as gas and oil. Cars, buses and trains, also the big heavy duty trucks, and airplanes all burn fossil fuel. Homes, factories, power plants all burn fossil fuels .As for methane that comes from cows and farms. These are the gasses that we are trying to protect the earth from not using these gasses so much as said above.
 * GLOBAL WARMING: LOCAL EFFECTS **

Because the earth surface is covered 71 percent of a body of water, and 97 percent is the water on earth. And if this global warming reaction keeps melting ice Bergs and ice sheets at the north and South Pole. Eventually the countries on the ocean line with become flooded such as New York, Boston, and the coastal area such as Hawaii. Also many people will loose there jobs and home because of the floods.

To all of you who drive your own cars to work or school: you can do one specific important thing to prevent global warming! You can stop driving as much and you can carpool. By carpooling there will be less carbon dioxide spreading throughout the air causing global warming. If you carpool about 5 or 6 people two times a week compared to those 5 or 6 people driving individually in gas guzzler cars, then those 5 or 6 people would reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 1,590 pounds a year. The positive results for carpooling are reducing global warming. As an added bonus, you can do your un finished work from the office or company or building, while someone is driving, you can get your extra sleep for work or you can sleep an extra 5 or 10 min from the usual time you get up in the morning to drive yourself to work, you’ll be able to actually finish your morning coffee and not spilling it you will enjoy your morning rather than the driver or your other mornings. One other important thing this carpool program will also be helping is your money because you will be saving approximately 2.50 a gallon for your gas for your car. For someone who travels 30 miles to work/school (60 miles per day), 5 days a week, and who shares driving with three other drivers, they would pay for gas for one week per month. That means that for the other three weeks, they would save approximately 100$ a month for a total of $1,200 for the year.
 * WHAT YOUR AUDIENCE CAN DO DIFFERENTLY: One specific area of focus **

For example, this picture above is a good example of three Suffolk County employees. They are contributing to the Suffolk County rideshare program. This program has saved 211,000 miles and 12,500 vehicle trips which is reducing CO2 emissions by 92 tons. It has brought to my attention that Suffolk County is being discovered of “greening” its diesel bus fleet and also retrofitting units to burn cleaner with fewer emissions. They have discovered that buying a hybrid/electric bus which is reducing fuel 25%. These are some good ways why you should contribute to carpooling because it helps the world and it betters the economy.

Summary **** OF YOUR RESEARCH **

My experience of the green effect is good and helping the earth. But this can only work if we all work together.we can all make a difference if we all contribute the time and energy in saving the earth instead of takn the time in ruining it in our everyday life.
