Objects that are burning up in Earth's atmosphere are generally moving very quickly, therefore the display of light that you see will appear as a streak.

What are two examples of solid particles found in the atmosphere?
Dust and soot. "Dust" are fine particles of rock that can be caused by weathering, wind, or meteors burning up in the atmosphere. "Soot" is partially-burned hydrocarbons that result from burning something organic, like wood, coal or oil.
The increase in carbon dioxide in your atmosphere over the last 150 years was caused primarily by what?
Burning fossil fuels.
What caused the increase in carbon dioxide in your atmosphere over the last 150 years?
The increase in carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere over the last 150 years was due to mankind's burning of fossil fuels.
What is the effect and cause that affects the atmosphere?
You may be thinking of global warming, which is the recent rapid warming of the earth, caused by the human activities of deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity. This burning releases carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas, which is building up in the atmosphere.
What has caused Carbon Dioxide levels to steadily increase since the 1800s?
The burning of fossil fuels (coal & oil) is the primary cause of the increase in carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere.

What process caused the atmosphere's composition to change so much?
Burning fossil fuel releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas which is building up in the atmosphere.
The increase in carbon dioxide in your atmosphere over the last 150 years was caused primarily by what?
Burning fossil fuels.
The increase in carbon dioxide in your atmosphere over the last 150 years was caused primarily by?
burning fossil fuels
Scientists who are concerned about increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere believe global warming is caused by?
... the burning of fossil fuels, which is adding extra carbon dioxide to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
What contributes most acid precipitation?
The burning of fossil fuels is the largest contributor to acid precipitation. It is caused by sulfur and nitrogen reaction with the atmosphere.
What is the enhanced greenhouse effect and who caused it?
The enhanced, or accelerated greenhouse effect, is the increased heat in the atmosphere. It is caused largely by humans burning fossil fuels and cutting down forests. Both these activities Lead to more carbon dioxide (a greenhouse gas) in the atmosphere.
What caused the increase in carbon dioxide in your atmosphere over the last 150 years?
The increase in carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere over the last 150 years was due to mankind's burning of fossil fuels.
An increase in the average level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is most likely caused by an increase in the?
Burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
