Greenhouse 101
what are gases that traps heat in the atmosphere
carbon dioxide,methane
is the carbon dioxide humans breathe out considered greenhouse gases
NO,it is part of a natural cycle where CO2 is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis
what fuel do most cars burn
diesel,gasoline/fossil fuels
what major envoirmental problem is caused by greenhouse gases
global warming
which country in the chart has emisions so close to 0 it was rounded to 0
chad
what is the gas that is mainly produced when fossil fuels are burned
carbon dioxide
one place where fossil fuels are burned to generate electricity
Fossil fuel power station
which fuel do planes burn
kerosene
how are living things affected by global warming
Ecosystem disruption, habitat loss(from wildfires)
why were chads emisions so low
they trap heat in (causing global warming)
does cooking or heating contruibute to carbon dioxide emmisions
YES
why does transportation release so much carbon dioxide worldwide
because most transportations run on fossil fuels
why are oceans affected by greenhouse gas emissions
Coral reef death,ocean warming and marine heatwaves
which very wealty desert country has very high emissions
Qatar
where can we find fossil fuels being used/burned
factory furnaces, petrol from vehicles,kerosene from planes, heavy fuel oil for ships
why do certain types of transportation incease carbon dioxide levels
Combustion of fuels (esp fossil fuels)
what type of fuels do ships burn
Heavy Fuel Oil
why do poorer countries suffer even if they emit less carbon dioxide
limited adaptation, they lack the infrastructure to adapt to climate change affectively (accept other ans if its similar or if not similar as long as smt to do w the question)
what fuel is mainly used in Qatar
natural gas ( gas also acceptable)
how do greenhouse gases cause global warming
Trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere
name 3 types of transport that release carbon dioxide
road transport,air travel and maritime shipping (also accept if they say cars planes and ships etc)
how does increased travel affect carbon dioxide levels
Increased travel, particularly through the combustion of fossil fuels in various transport modes, significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emissions.
explain why climate change is a global problem not a local one
green house gases spread worldwide and afect all countries
how does wealth affect a country's emission (acording to the chart)
wealthy countries use more energy and fosiil fuels
