How the amount of fossil fuels humans use affects the earth.

The greenhouse effect is not necessarily a bad thing. It keeps the Earth at a temperature perfect for humanity's survival.

Over the unit, our class has participated in different experiments to emphasize different themes and ideas. One of the most notable took place whilst we were studying use and consequence.

The first generation (Jack and Felicity) were invited up to take their share of a bowl of pretzels. They were not restricted concerning the amount of pretzels they could take. Secondly, the second generation, which was not select to only two people and therefore is difficult to identify in it's entirety, was also invited up to the bowl to have a helping. Because there were less pretzels, the mood was startlingly more frantic. But lastly, came the third generation, after all pretzels had been taken. The resources were not renewable and therefore were extinguished quickly.

The exercise was meant to teach the importance of restrictions on non-renewable resources.

The more the Earth is polluted by humans, the less ozone is in the atmosphere, causing an increased risk of skin cancer because of the UV radiation. Some types of pollution may include littering, driving cars(gas in the air), and building construction or destruction. Too much UV radiation onto Earth can cause skin cancer and serious cases of sunburns.

The ozone layer acts like a blanket for the Earth. It traps heat and holds it close to the Earth. Heat is held in by carbon dioxide, as well, and heat that would have been lost to space lingers in our atmosphere.

The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere determines the temperature on Earth. The more carbon dioxide there is, the warmer the temperature will be.

In the 1930' the Great American desert lacked trees and water. When the farmers there plowed, that got rid of the grass and at the same time there wasn't any rain, which made there nothing to hold the soil. In consequence the soil started blowing around and turned to dust. This caused dust storms or black blizzards.

The ozone layer is a layer in the atmosphere which protects the earth from radiation, like an umbrella. However, using too many greenhouse gases can cause holes in the atmosphere.

The first layer of the atmosphere farthest from the Earth is the Exosphere, then is the Thermosphere, then the Mesosphere. Next is the Stratosphere(where the ozone layer is). The closest layer to the Earth of the atmosphere is the Troposphere.

A carbon footprint is measured by the amount of fossil fuels we use  These fossil fuels cause greenhouses gases to go into the air. There are many different ways such as driving cars, using heat/AC, littering, etc.

Our factories and production services can cause decreases and increases of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which can cause increases and decreases of the temperature.

Greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere, such as CO2 and water vapor, trap radiation from the Sun and cause the Earth to become warmer. CO2 is produced by humans when they burn coal or other fossil fuels.

Carbon footprint- the effect an individual or group has on the Earth based on their usage of fossil fuels

Causes of an increase in the size of a carbon footprint are as listed below

-Heat/AC
-Wasted products (e.g plastic)
-Destroying nature
-Driving cars/trucks
-Leaving lights on
-Purchasing meats
-Destroying recyclable materials
-Refusing to donate clothing

Any resource such as wood or solar energy that can or will be replenished naturally in the course of time is a renewable resource and any resource that can only be used once and is gone once it is used is a nonrenewable resource.

renewable- plants, animals, air,fresh water, salt water

Nonrenewable- minerals, oil, natural gases.

Causal is one variable that changes due to another variable.
Correlation is the one variable that may be linked to another variable but does NOT cause the change.

Humans do many things to affect the Earth. By wasting water, littering, etc., we hurt the Earth very easily. Our everyday lives can also destroy the environment without even knowing it. For example, just driving cars and releasing gasses into the air affects the environment. Also cutting trees, burning leaves, plastics and paper, and an endless amount of examples of things we do that hurt the Earth without us even realizing it. We call this the "carbon footprint", that explains and analogy of how we leave marks on the earth.
