Best Answer

If the energy used to produce and transport and use a computer comes from burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), then carbon dioxide, is emitted. Burning fossil fuels in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, adds CO2 to the atmosphere, producing the enhanced greenhouse effect which is responsible for global warming.

What is the role of science and technology in communication and transportation?

Science and technology are absolutely vital to all of those fields.


What gives out greenhouse gases?

The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, which releases carbon dioxide. Stuff you do everyday ride the bus drive a car turn on the lights all sorts of important stuff requires outputing greenhouse gases cars and buses give out the gas CO2 (carbon dioxide) power plants that make the energy for the computer your on now outputs CO2 as the most common greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide there is a plan called the Kyoto Protocal that helps by slowing down the output of six major greenhouse gases.

What is the carbon emission level of the shinkansen?

The Shinkansen, Japan's bullet trains, are electric, so there are no carbon emissions while running. The electricity used comes from a variety of sources, including renewable and nuclear, which have very few emissions. As well as this, the modern trains, eg, the N700A, uses 19% less energy than the 1999 models because of clever developments in technical areas such as regenerative braking and computer speed control.


How do scientists calculate future climate changes predictions?

Scientists use complex computer models known as climate models to calculate future climate change predictions. These climate models simulate the Earth's climate system by incorporating data on greenhouse gas emissions, land use changes, and other factors that influence climate. By running these models with different scenarios and assumptions, scientists can predict how these changes will affect global temperature, precipitation patterns, sea level rise, and other climate variables in the future.

Will bad oxygen sensors cause me to fail the emissions test?

Problems with the oxygen sensors are quite likely to cause emissions test problems. The car computer cannot properly adjust the air/fuel mixture to regulate the emissions.

Which gas contributes most to the greenhouse effect?

The most effective "greenhouse" gasses are water vapor and methane. Carbon dioxide is WAY down the list. Fortunately, water vapor's greenhouse effects are self-regulating; as water vapor in the air increases and causes more heat to be trapped, clouds form in the atmosphere and cause more heat to be REFLECTED AWAY. Unfortunately, the scientists who are warning of "global warming" were unable to include this factor in their computer climate models. So they are warning of a danger that does not exist.

What year did the cars get emission control computer systems?

The answer varies by model and manufacturer. I had an 84 Buick Park Avenue with a computer controlled carburetor that someone told me was the first computer controlled GM, but I would doubt this was the first computer controlled emissions system. As far as I know, computer controlled emissions did not become federally mandated until 1996 when OBD II emissions systems became standard. Now we have a light that comes on making little old ladies pay $50+ for a mechanic to tell her she forget to tighten her gas cap, thanks uncle sam.
