         <description><![CDATA[<div>Word Institute Resources says " Cows and other ruminant animals (like goats and sheep) emit methane, a potent greenhouse gas, as they digest grasses and plants."

Also, the coastlines of the US during 1960-2021 have risen 8 inches. Factors of the rising levels can be the melting of ice sheets and glaciers due to the warming climate.

         <title>22.Carbon dioxide has been associated with the warming of Earth. You have learned in Biology class that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is taken out of the air by plants and trees through photosynthesis and replaced with breathable oxygen. a. Does this statement support global warming deniers? Explain. b. Does this statement support climate science research? Explain. c. Does your answer change when you consider deforestation and increased demand for paper and housing? </title>

Since there is so much trying to be filter it is showing how this increase in CO2 is a cause of global warming.<br><br>b)  Yes it supports the research. Much of the research has been on the CO2 affects and causing climate change. This increase in CO2 that has to be filtered helps support climate change.<br><br>c) No my answer doesn't change.</div>]]></description>
