= Stop Global Warming = = THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT  =  -Greenhouse gasses keeps the surface of the earth warmer than it should be and helps us not freeze to death. It shields us from ultraviolent rays being sent from the sun. The ultra violent rays can sent from the sun can cause skin cancer. The greenhouse gasses are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gasses. They are all gasses that trap heat in the atmosphere.

 ==GLOBAL WARMING: THE BIG PICTURE  == -The greenhouse gases are increasing which is making the temperature rising around the world. To help global warming EPA is making Greenhouse gas inventory capacity buildings. Global warming is bad because it is causing many things in the world that could hurt the environment and change the way we live. Global warming is causing glaciers to melt and growing seasons are becoming longer. media type="youtube" key="LFNKfWyGxHw" height="344" width="425"

- Global warming is caused by fossil fuels being burned and deforestation. Fossil fuels are burned at most factories. Also it is happening because of the increasing greenhouse gasses. It is also being caused by some methods of transportation and agriculture. Lastly, it is being caused by waste processing.
 * GLOBAL WARMING: CONTRIBUTING FACTORS **

-Global warming increases air and water pollution. It is making warmer temperatures around the world. Tides are starting to rise and islands are going under water. Also because of global warming temperature increase the risk of droughts, floods, heat waves and cold waves have increased which could hurt crops that are growing. Also it is causing shifts in the animal and plant ranges. As mentioned above when the sea levels increase it kills marine life which harms the marine life ecosystem. Also because of the sea level increase the fresh water amount decreases because of salt water intrusion and because of the water coming in it increases the risk of drowning. -One thing you can do differently is shut lights off when they are not being used or when they do not need to be used. When you leave lights on you are wasting energy. The energy you waste is coming from a power plant. Then at that power plant they burn oil, natural gas and coal to produce that energy that won’t even go to use. When burned these things make carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide which causes global warming. Also another way to help is to use solar energy from solar panels to get electricity. Some areas have also used wind power instead of using power plants also. Not only will shutting the lights off help the environment but it will also help save money. Also using energy efficient bulbs will also save money and save energy. If every U.S household uses these bulbs it will save up an equivalent of ten million car emissions.
 * GLOBAL WARMING: LOCAL EFFECTS **
 * WHAT YOUR AUDIENCE CAN DO DIFFERENTLY: One specific area of focus **

-Global warming is happening because of fossil fuels being burned and deforestation. Then when those two things occur greenhouse gasses go into the atmosphere. Normally it is good that there are greenhouse gasses up in the atmosphere because they shield us from ultra violent rays. Now though there are too many of these gasses which then cause global warming. To help the environment you can use wind power or only use lights when they need to be used or use solar energy. Also all of those will not only help the environment but it will save money. BIBLIOGRAPHY
