Why did carbon dioxide emissions became abnormally high in 1945?
Carbon dioxide emissions became abnormally high in 1945 due to a combination of factors. The end of World War II led to a rapid increase in industrial production and the use of fossil fuels. Additionally, the expansion of the global transportation system, including the use of airplanes and automobiles, contributed to the higher emissions.
Is global warming being reduced?
No, it continues to increase. Humans continue pumping up the heat trapping CO2 greenhouse gas, though US emissions declined 3% last year from the year before. Germany was the only other industrial nation which had reduced emissions. Earth apparently can adjust to emissions approximately 1% of what we currently emit, otherwise the CO2 level continues to climb. If we immediately stopped all emissions right now, we would still expect the temperature to climb about 2 degrees C by the end of the century. Without curbing emissions the expected rise will be between 4 and 7 degrees C.
True or false automobiles exhaust and industrial emissions are major sources of carbon dioxide?
True; those and many other sources are present [ubiquitously] today, on an all too constantly ongoing basis.
What is the source of carbon dioxide in fossil fuels?
The largest source of CO2 emissions globally is the combustion of fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas in power plants, automobiles, industrial facilities and other sources.A number of specialized industrial production processes and product uses such as mineral production, metal production and the use of petroleum-based products can also lead to CO2 emissions.Carbon sequestration is the process by which growing trees and plants absorb or remove CO2 from the atmosphere and turn it into biomass (e.g., wood, leaves, etc.). Deforestation, conversely, can lead to significant levels of CO2 emissions in some countries.Carbon dioxide can be captured from power plants and industrial facilities before it is released into the atmosphere, and then injected deep underground.The figure below displays a breakdown of sources of CO2 emissions in the U.S. in 2006. By far the largest source is fossil fuel combustion:
Which emissions control system is designed to reduce NOX emissions?
egr valve
What is industrial emissions?
Industrial emission is when gas-borne pollutants discharged in the atmosphere from smokestacks of factories/industrial plants.

What is often used to remove poisonous gases from industrial emissions before they are released into the atmosphere?
Catalytic Converters
What apparatus is often used to remove poisonous gases from industrial emissions before they are released into the atmosphere?

Where does smog come from?
Smog is caused by pollutants in the air. The source is often emissions from industrial plants and vehicles.

What are the major industrial pollutants from the steel industry?
In its steel industry sulfur emissions and CO2 Exhalant of metallurgy are polluting.
What are the environmental problems in Italy?
Air pollution from industrial emissions such as sulfur dioxide; coastal and inland rivers polluted from industrial and agricultural effluents; acid rain damaging lakes; inadequate industrial waste treatment and disposal facilities.
