The white and shiny ice and snow reflects the sun's heat more than dark surfaces like land and open sea. This is called the albedo effect, and it explains why ice caps help to slow global warming.
Unfortunately, when the ice does melt, then the darker surfaces below absorb more heat, so global warming happens faster. This is called a feedback effect.
What else can I help you with?
If people plant more trees will this lessen the global warming?
awnser asap please! thanx
How does natural carbon capture help mitigate the effects of climate change?
Natural carbon capture, such as through forests and oceans, helps reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This process helps mitigate climate change by balancing the carbon cycle and reducing the greenhouse effect, which in turn helps regulate the Earth's temperature and lessen the impact of global warming.
Why simple brushing of your teeth is a factor of global warming?
Simple brushing of teeth contributes to global warming because many toothpaste brands contain chemicals like triclosan that are harmful to the environment when they enter waterways. Additionally, the production and transportation of toothbrushes and toothpaste have a carbon footprint that contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. Using eco-friendly products and reducing water waste during brushing can help lessen this impact.
How does photosynthesis moderate the greenhouse effect?
As far as CO2 is involved, Photosynthesis is by far and away the Best method of carbon capture and STORAGE [within Earth's Soil] that We Possess; and this [as well as any, every and all forms of ] Removal of CO2 from Our paper thin Atmosphere is what We Desire Most.
What is global disarmament?
Global disarmament refers to the process of reducing and eliminating weapons and military capabilities on a global scale. It involves the voluntary or negotiated reduction of arms and military forces by countries in order to promote peace and stability. The aim of global disarmament is to lessen the threat of armed conflict and nuclear warfare, and to redirect resources towards development and humanitarian needs.
If people plant more trees will this lessen the global warming?
awnser asap please! thanx
What does mitigate global warming mean?
Mitigate means to soften or make easier, so with global warming it means to reduce it. The way, of course, to reduce global warming is to plant billions of trees and to stop burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
What are the predictions for the future?
The future predictions on global warming is depending on our way of life now to better the outcome. The more we do to lessen the impact, the better off the future will be.
What can be done to lessen the effects of global warming?
To lessen the effects of global warming, we can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by transitioning to renewable energy sources, promoting energy efficiency, and implementing policies that limit carbon emissions. Additionally, protecting and restoring forests, wetlands, and other natural habitats can also help absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Individual actions such as reducing energy consumption, using public transportation, and supporting companies with sustainable practices can also contribute to mitigating global warming.
What are the best ways you can help fight global warming?
Plant more trees and always use gases such as LPG and CNG in cars. Also lessen the use of air conditioner and refrigerator.
What do plants do to lessen the greenhouse effect?
Plants help lessen the greenhouse effect by absorbing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. They store this carbon in their biomass, which reduces the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Additionally, plants release oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis, which helps to balance the levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Is dark colored roofing better to lessen the effect of global warming?
No. As the polar ice caps melt, less sunlight is reflected back away from the earth, it is the colour white of the ice and snow that reflects the light. So if there is less reflection, there is more heat, so LIGHTER coloured roofing would reduce the problem.
What are the objectives in studying global warming?
explain the greenhouse effect and greenhouse gasses on Earth.describe how and how often climate change occurs and how we know climate has changed in the past.recognize the methods used to study climate change.understand what scientists do know about past and future climate change and what is still uncertain.explain the political and scientific debate behind global warming.explain how and why climate change occurs (both natural and human induced).describe how you and society can react to the problems of global warming and what you can do to lessen your emissions.distinguish the difference between local and global climate and temperature change.state the purpose of the Kyoto treaty and the U.S.'s relationship with the treaty.describe the U.S. reaction to climate change over the last two decades.
Give an example of how politics can affect science?
If there is a policy that doesn't believe the science of global warming then there won't be environmental protections put into place to lessen the damages by oil spills, fracking, smog, and industrial air pollutants.
What is the only thing that will lessen the effect of alcohol?
Total abstinence and/or time tend to lessen the effects of alcohol.
How does natural carbon capture help mitigate the effects of climate change?
Natural carbon capture, such as through forests and oceans, helps reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This process helps mitigate climate change by balancing the carbon cycle and reducing the greenhouse effect, which in turn helps regulate the Earth's temperature and lessen the impact of global warming.
How will the surface of the Earth change in the future?
The Earth's surface can change in the future in a variety of ways. If global warming continues, the amount of ice-covered surface will lessen, which will make the water surface become larger, while the land surface could become smaller.
