What causes global warming?
As human activity takes place, carbon-dioxide is released. It could also be volcanic eruptions that releases CO2 in the atmosphere. It could also be the Earth's position in space.

Name the most common greenhouse gas

Carbon Dioxide

100
Name the most common way nature contributes to global warming.
When animals breathe they release Carbon Dioxide Or Depends on answer

What are two common ways of transportation that does not add to global warming?
Walking and Biking

When a place is very dry and there is no water, what is this called?

Drought

200
How do people cause climate change?
Humans use energy and release carbon dioxide into the air
200
What are greenhouse gases?
Gases trapped in the atmosphere
200
How do volcanoes contribute to global warming?
When they erupt, they release large amounts of Co2
200
How does planting trees help reduce carbon dioxide levels?
They take in Co2 and release oxygen via photosynthesis.
200
What is AQI an abbreviation for?
What is Air quality index.
300
How can earth's forests affect global warming?
The forests use the CO2 in the atmosphere
300

How are animals affected by greenhouse gases?

Some animals can only live in cold temperatures. If temperature rises, they might suffer and could possibly become extinct.

How are cold-water animal species responding to the increase of temperature in their waters?

Name 3 Greenhouse gases
CO2, methane, water vapor, and nitrous oxide

How are green houses gases linked to global warming?

Greenhouse gases, after being released, can become trapped in the atmosphere, increasing the Earth's temperature. 

400

How do forests contribute to the removal of greenhouse gases?

Trees in forests take in Carbon Dioxide and release oxygen.

How does the AQI help people?
Air quality index tells us how polluted the air is 24/7

What is the difference between weather and climate?

Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a specific time in a place, climate is the overall general pattern of weather in a specific place.

500
How will climate change affect the ocean?
Polar Ice caps may melt therefore increasing ocean levels.
500
If we continued to damage the earth,how would that affect life?
The atmoshere would overheat and therefore lifeforms would not have enough time to adapt.

What are 2 alternatives for making electricty that do not contribute to global warming?

Wind energy, Hydropower, Solar power

500
What is the evidence that global warming maybe happening?
Temperature changes in ocean, melting ice caps, arctic animals are dying, more hurricances, tornados and thunderstorms

What is a fossil fuel?

A fossil fuel is material which contains carbon which when burned can be used to create energy. Fossil fuels are found in the remains of dead plants and animals from underground. When fossil fuels are burned CO2 is released.
