= GO GREEN!! IT WILL SAVE THE WORLD! =

[] The green house effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth has because of gases like water vapor, and carbon dioxide. It shows how the radiation passes through the atmosphere, but it gets sucked in and thrown out in all different directions by the green house gas molecules and clouds. The effect the green house gas has is to warm the Earth’s surface. If there was no Green House Effect than our Earth would not be hot enough for humans to live on. Without all the gases then our average temperature would be 60’f colder.


 * GLOBAL WARMING : THE BIG PICTURE **

[] Global Warming is being caused by people wasting energy, and by burning fossil fuels. Its how fast warming will go on as a result of heat trapping, and will cause the Earth to be very hot. The signs that are happening right now is the climate changing. If people keep living like this, then there is a chance that one day the Earth will be very hot and may burn.


 * GLOBAL WARMING: CONTRIBUTING FACTORS **



[|://www.saabhistory.com/2007/06/]

Global Warming factors are things we are doing that are causing all this. One of them is because we are burning fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are dead and buried organisms. Factories are doing that, and that’s what is contributing to Global Warming. In factories there are clouds of methane gas *which slow down the radiation*, and it’s getting trapped into the air and into the seas, which are killing animals. When we litter it is polluting our air, which is not good for us to breathe in. All of this is causing Global Warming and is warming our Earth day by day.


 * GLOBAL WARMING: LOCAL EFFECTS **



[] The local effects of Global Warming are that it’s causing glaciers to melt. Polar bears live on them, and since they are melting it’s killing the polar bears. It’s causing the Arctic and Antarctica to get warmer. Penguins and many other animals also live there, so it’s hurting them too. The seas are rising and when they rise it covers most of the low islands. There are also more droughts and massive fires all over the Earth. All of these can kill us.

-My audience is our school students'. Using lots of energy is a big part of Global Warming. If you use less energy then you are saving the Earth. Saving the Earth stops Global Warming. Stopping Global Warming keeps the Earth from getting to hot and burning. Keeping the Earth from getting to hot and burning, saves us so we don’t get hurt. Also saving energy saves you more money. // Facts- //
 * WHAT YOUR AUDIENCE CAN DO DIFFERENTLY: **
 * -If every household replaced its most often-used incandescent light bulbs with CFLs, electricity use for lighting could be cut in half. **
 * -If you need to warm up or defrost small amounts of food, use a microwave instead of the stove to save energy. Microwave ovens use around 50 percent less energy than conventional ovens do. **
 * -Today's dishwashers are about 95% more energy-efficient than those bought in 1972 — your old dishwasher may be costing you more money in energy bills than it would take to buy a new one. **
 * -Almost half of the average home's energy consumption is used for heating. **
 * -At most, 35 percent of coal's energy in a power plant converts to electricity. The remaining two thirds is lost as waste heat, benefiting no one and often harming surrounding ecosystems. **

A SUMMARY OF YOUR RESEARCH ** ** BIBLIOGRAPHY ** Jean-Marc Jancovici, ’Indian Networks on ethics and climate change” “__The green house effect” __ Friday May. 29 2009. []  - [] (didn’t know)
 * My project is based on Global Warming. The Green House Effect is the reason why our Earth is warm. Contributing factors to global warming is not good at all. Some things we do to cause that are burning fossil fuels, and using a lot of energy. Global Warming is melting glaciers and killing animals day by day. Make sure you do things to prevent Global Warming because it is saving us as a planet. **
