How are people adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere's?
People are adding carbon dioxide to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels. I believe
Does burning fossil fuels remove carbon from the atmosphere?
No, burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, adding to the overall carbon levels. This is one of the primary contributors to the greenhouse effect and climate change.
Does adding more carbon dioxide gas to the atmosphere cause the temperature to rise?
yes
What will happen to the temperature of the atmosphere after you stop adding carbon dioxide into the air?
we will all die :)
How are we changing the balance of the gases in our atmosphere today?
We are adding more and more carbon dioxide to the atmosphere. This is causing global warming and climate change.
What process(es) add(s) carbon to the atmosphere?
Burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes like cement production are major contributors to adding carbon to the atmosphere. Additionally, activities like agriculture and land-use change also release carbon into the atmosphere.
What role does the combustion of fossil fuels have in the carbon cycle?
The combustion of fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and global warming. This disrupts the balance of the carbon cycle by adding more carbon dioxide than natural systems can absorb, leading to increased levels of carbon in the atmosphere and oceans.
How does the burning of fossil fuels affect the carbon cycle?
Burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, increasing the concentration of this greenhouse gas. This excess carbon dioxide traps heat in the atmosphere, contributing to global warming and climate change. It disrupts the natural balance of the carbon cycle by adding more carbon to the atmosphere than can be absorbed by natural processes.
How can wood save the environment?
Wood as in trees actually stores up carbon and carbon dioxide so prevents it from being in the atmosphere and adding to the greenhouse effect.
The greenhouse effect is a direct result of?
The greenhouse effect is a direct result of certain gases in the Earth's atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide and methane, trapping heat from the sun. These gases allow sunlight to enter the atmosphere but trap heat radiating from the Earth's surface, leading to an overall warming of the planet.
What happens to the thickness of the atmosphere when we burn coal?
It becomes thicker because you are adding carbon dioxide which is denser than air. Also, you are adding ash and other tiny particles.
How does carbon and the atmosphere interact?
The carbon cycle moves carbon in and out of the atmosphere, the land, plants and animals, and the oceans. Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is a greenhouse gas that keeps the planet warm. Too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, from humans adding it by burning fossil fuels, is causing an accelerated greenhouse effect, global warming.
