Norah: So, do you compost?
Marissa: No.
Norah: Because you and many others don't compost this happens...
Scientist 1: The landfill sizes are increasing. Garbage is becoming so expensive because there are less places to put it and it costs more to move it. Every year 121 million tons of waste are deposited in U.S. landfills
Norah: But because of landfills increasing this happens...
Scientist 2: Methane gas levels are rising. It's causing global warming and it's breaking down the ozone layer.
Norah: Because of the ozone layer breaking down people can get sick.
Scientist 3: The ozone layer protects us from the sun's UV rays. If it weakens, people will get skin cancer, cataracts, and their immune systems will weaken
Norah: Now will you compost?
In today’s society, more and more threats to the welfare of our earth and atmosphere are being discovered. Some world leaders dismiss these concerns, 1) because they choose to remain ignorant of the condition of the planet’s environment, 2) because it would cost them “too much money” to fix the problem, 3) because it is easier not to deal with the problem, or 4) they simply do not care. We cannot simply ignore these problems, for any of these reasons, because the longer we wait to address them, the more dire the situation becomes. The scientists who study these threats to our environment want to solve this issue. That’s what scientists do; they form a hypothesis and test every variable until they find a solution. Mario Molina studied the effects of chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) on the ozone, finding that they aided the depletion of the ozone in earth’s upper atmosphere, just another threat to the earth’s environment.
Global Warming has been a very serious conversation over the last decade, because it affects every person living on the planet whether we choose to believe it or not. Most of the scientific community claims that global warming is to blame for the changes in Earth’s climate. However, there are a small number of scientists who deny the very existence of global warming. Temperatures on earth have increased approximately 1.4°F since the early 20th century. Over time, atmospheric levels of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) have notably increased. Both sides in the debate surrounding global climate change agree on the CO2 and CH4 being increased and that’s it.
the ozone hole is a big issue in Australia, the hole cause a lot of trouble that Australia don’t want, the ozone cause skin disease, sun burn, fainted and more, in the past, there is no worries when you play outdoor, you don’t need to think that you or your kids will have a sun burn, or they may die with skin cancer, you don’t need to force your kids to where a hat to prevent sunburn or skin cancer. The ozone layer is harm in the industrial revolution, and when the ozone layer was broke, things change,.
The third factor that plays a major role in causing skin cancer is the Ozone layer. It helps protect people from ultraviolet radiation. However, the ozone layer is shrinking and this is due to man-made products like sprays and combustion of cars that are emitted in the atmosphere. This process is allowing more ultraviolet penetration to the earth thus increasing risk of skin cancer (Bair, 1991, P. 367,368). Ultraviolet radiation are the chief causes for skin cancer because the UV radiation
The amount of money being used to make landfills Is expensive, because we need the money to pay bills and taxes but instead, the money is being used for putting rotten
Max Weber has studied and presented work that falls under symbolic interactionism, conflict, and functionalism theoretical models. He focused on social behaviors, ideal types, and relationships, all which help shape society and were studied at a macro level. One of his goals was to seek how systems of class and status brought about social change. This social change is caused by stratification and the legitimacy of the existing system. Max Weber argued that social class was three dimensions of stratification, which are class status and power.
We are living in the midst of a great chemical experiment, and some serious consequences are becoming apparent to scientists. More than two billion pounds of chemicals are spewed into the air each year. These chemicals are brewing a disastrous stew, resulting in an atmosphere crisis. The greatest consequences of the atmosphere crisis may be global warming and ozone depletion. If humankind wants to continue to inhabit earth, then we must stop this horrid destruction of our own environment.
In order to understand the issue of global warming (also referred to as climate change), you must first understand what it means and how it happens. Global warming is a result of a process known as the greenhouse effect, in which the light and heat from the sun are trapped in the Earth’s atmosphere by greenhouse gases; which subsequently raises the average temperature on Earth. The greenhouse gases responsible for this process are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, chlorofluorocarbons, and tropospheric ozone, all of which are released into the atmosphere through naturally occurring processes (Warrick, R. & Farmer, G., 1990).
Over hundreds of thousands of years humans have adapted their way of life to the environment they live in resulting in us developing different physical attributes, shelters, clothing, foods, languages and beliefs. But there are elements in our world that all humans, no matter where or how they live depend on, water and air. Both are essential for life but air also protects all of us and it is therefore understandable that the response to the depletion of the ozone layer became international. This essay will look at what the ozone layer is, why it was depleting, how the international response to this situation developed and what this collaboration means for our future.
Hey, wanna know how much garbage waste is made every day by the people in the world? Well let me tell you that the people of the United States produce the most which is 4.6 pounds per person. The problem with garbage waste is that it's still at a high point of 44 % produced by the richer countries, and are filling every landfill to the brim. With all the pounds of garbage waste being made we still have enough time to change it around, and have a better future for the future generations.
The concept of global warming has become one of the most widely debated and controversial topics of our time. Scientists learned long ago that the earth’s climate has powerfully shaped the history of humanity. However, it is only in the past few decades that research has revealed that humans have a significant influence on the climate as well. A growing body of scientific evidence indicates that since 1950, the world’s climate has been warming, primarily as a result of emissions from the burning of fossil fuels and the destruction of tropical forests. More importantly, an article titled "Global Warming" published in the New York Times shows that methane, a gas that is emitted from landfills, livestock and oil gas facilities,
This is just an explanation of how Global Warming is becoming about. Scientist are proving and discovering new ways to detect and analyze Global Warming and the effects.
It is quite unfortunate how much pollution is in the air. There’s a ton of global warming
Why is the ozone layer of much concern to scientists and environmentalists? The ozone layer is quite beneficial to human life and existence. The destruction of this layer has been linked to the now common health conditions such as cancers, skin conditions and cataracts among others. It is apparent that, without the ozone layer, all humanity would be lost to disease.
So this is my life, some say my name should’ve changed but I think not. My mother as a little girl was named Djeserit and in turn I had gotten Isis. When I was born, life was different as my mother and father were egyptians so in turn, I was egyptian but we were royals, so we were the rulers of Egypt. We could have anything we could imagine, it was nice and fantabulous.
