The average surface temperature of the earth has shown that our planet has been gradually heating up. The decade of 2010-2020 was the warmest ever recorded. (Link A) (Graph C) In addition, Other research records an increase in our sea levels, Greenhouse gas emissions and ecosystem degration.

(Graph D) (Link C) The occurrence of alternating seasons like winter leads people to believe that the planet is not heating. Others believe that because of the earth's previous warming and cooling periods, it will not affect them, ignoring that these periods have led to mass extinction events. (Link D) A common thought is that it's simply too late to stop climate change. While the earth's fluctuating climate may be inevitable, as it has happened in the past, it can be delayed with proper environmental regulations and reserves. If the planet is degraded into severe enough conditions, life will not return after the next mass extinction.

Surface areas that are darker like asphalt and soil absorb the most energy from the sun, retaining its heat. Usually lighter subjects like the icy glaciers of the north pole and clear water reflect the energy because of their light color. As they become more polluted from dust and waste, their color gradually becomes darker, accelerating the heating process of the atmosphere around them. (Image D) The "albedo" levels in an area greatly affect its climate.

(Graph A) As the population increases, carbon dioxide rises through increased oxygen consumption. Each child born in the united states adds about 9,441 metric tons of carbon dioxide to the earth's carbon legacy. Richer countries produce the most carbon dioxide. Children born in the United States produce 7x more CO2 than children in China, and 168x more than children in Bangladesh. (Link A) When the population grows, demand for materials and land grows as well. Deforestation from land demand depletes natural oxygen supply and increases CO2 levels. (Graph B) Demand for fuel for transportation, factories, and other materials grows with the population. Fossil fuels (coal, natural gas, petroleum) accounted for 74% of the United States' total GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions. (Link B) Energy usage is the top contributor to GHG emissions, with a clear link to population increase. (Graph C) There is a clear correlation between Co2 production and a large population, as the most populous and industrialized countries have been shown to produce the largest GHG (CO2 specifically) emissions. The most populous country in the world, China, with a population of around 1,400,000,000 is predicted to produce about 15,000 million metric tons of Co2 by 2030. The United States, populated by about 331,000,000, is on track to produce about 5,000 million metric tons by 2030.

Since the beginning of the industrial era in the 1850s, atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have risen by nearly 49%. (Link C) Historical Co2 levels have never hit above 300 ppm (parts per million) but in the last 100 years, it has increased exponentially, with the current levels sitting at 418 ppm, as of January 16, 2022. (Graph E) High levels of carbon dioxide leads to hazardous conditions.  Co2 is the most prevalent GHG, which traps warmth within the atmosphere. (Image A) This heats the land and oceans at an increasing rate, contributing to global warming.  (Link D) High carbon dioxide levels contribute to respiratory disease from air pollution, cause more extreme weather disasters, disrupt food supply and increase wildfires. (Link E) ]]> 2022-03-07 16:02:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984989 Abigaille https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984991 Environmental refugees are those displaced from their housing due to climate change its effects like natural disasters and global warming. When homes/cities are destroyed by weather-related disasters or the area simply becomes too dangerous to live in, the people must seek shelter and safety elsewhere. (Link F) Areas most in danger from climate change are those located near oceans or seas (Graph F+G) and those in dry climates. (Graph H+I) They would seek areas away from oceans and extreme heat. Drought-prone areas like California and the deserts in Africa would be abandoned. In the case of the Americas, they would flee inland away from the surrounding Pacific and Atlantic oceans. If Greenland's and Antarctica's glacial ice sheet were to melt, the ocean would raise an estimated 230 feet, effectively destroying cities like New York, Miami, Bangkok, and Shanghai. (Link G+H) This event would lead to a great loss of life and many environmental refugees seeking shelter. (Image B)]]> 2022-03-07 16:02:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984991 Abigaille https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984992 Many threats from climate change are posed to Chicago and the surrounding areas, some already being in effect. Elevated levels of precipitation nearly halved the normal amount of corn planted in Illinois. These new extreme levels of precipitation and storms could cause mass overflows within Lake Michigan. Wetter winters and springs are forecasted due to the warmer atmosphere holding more moisture. (Link I) This will decrease water quality as the stormwater and sewage systems are overpowered, letting contaminants such as fertilizer and waste into Lake Michigan. As other places are rising without the weight of the massive ice sheet that once covered North America, Chicago, and the Chicagoland area is slowly sinking. While the sinking is very gradual, about 4-8 inches per century, this could eventually redefine flood plains and destroy sewer systems. Eventually, Chicago will be covered by the water of Lake Michigan.  (Link J)  Even without Lisle's own share of environmental issues, accepting environmental refugees would be a challenge. Lisle is approximately 6.37 square miles, with a population of 24,233 people. (Link K) With the great number of environmental refugees in the world and Lisle's own set of climate obstacles and dangers, the town could not accept refugees and would most likely be abandoned.

Each gallon of gasoline consumed creates 20 pounds of GHG. Vehicles are responsible for 51% of the average household's CO2 emissions. (Link A) The typical passenger vehicle emits about 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide per year. The average fuel economy of a gasoline car on the road today is 22 miles per gallon, totaling 440 pounds of GHG produced per tank of gas. (Link B) In the U.S. cars total about 29% of greenhouse gas emissions.

(Graph B) Livestock increasingly outnumbers wildlife, there are currently three chickens per one human on the planet. 14.5% of global GHG emissions are produced by meat and dairy production. Cow and sheep, some of the most commonly consumed animals, are ruminants. Their stomachs are lined with tough material meant to help them digest grass and other tough materials. The digestive process results in the production of methane, which is execrated through the animal. Methane is 34x more powerful than CO2 and stays in the atmosphere much longer. (Link C) There is a clear alignment between the levels in GHG emissions and meat production. (Graph C) ]]> 2022-03-07 16:02:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984994 Abigaille https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984996 The production of carbon emissions by wild-caught fish is considerably less than those of land livestock such as cows and sheep. (Graph D) The CO2 produced by farming cows is approximately 6x higher than those of fish farming. Eating wild-caught fish requires no land, no freshwater use, and has little impact on wildlife. Farming bivalves like oysters, mussels, and clams takes place near the shore. This requires little to no CO2 emission from the use of boats. These animals actually reduce atmospheric carbon dioxide through their development. Over half of all arable land on the planet has been cleared for agriculture or livestock. By increasing fish consumption and decreasing land-bred animal consumption, the remaining land can be saved.

The graph is an exponential function, increasing distinctly more with each passing year, as GHG emissions only increase. ]]> 2022-03-07 16:02:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984997 Abigaille https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984998 Ice cores are samples of ice taken by drilling down in a glacier. (Image A) As snow falls and a glacier forms, the ice catches air in it. When ice cores are taken, information about the climate through the years can be obtained. The captured samples of the atmosphere have evidence of the air chemistry at the time. (Link A) Many ice cores have been dated back to 800,000 years ago. (Link B) Ice cores are helpful when determining the atmospheric concentration of CO2 and other GHGs in years past (Graph A) ]]> 2022-03-07 16:02:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984998 Abigaille https://padlet.com/lisle202/1prvtm32be21rybl/wish/2081984999 From what scientists currently know, sea levels have always fluctuated. This can be due to many reasons like land formation, ice formation, and melting of glaciers. These changes have usually been very gradual. However, in the last century, the sea level has begun to rise rapidly. This correlates with the recorded melting of glaciers across the globe. 1980-2020 recorded a rise in mean sea levels by 8-9 inches. (Link H) This can be traced back to high carbon dioxide levels, or ultimately, human influence and industrialism. The expansion of factory work in the gilded age began the continually growing industry that thrives on the planet today, as did it begin the alteration of our atmosphere. The increase of the rate at which the sea level is rising started around the 1880s when carbon emissions became mainstream for production. (Graph C) The recession of glaciers and expansion of volume in the ocean is caused by global warming. The high levels of CO2 trapped within the earth's atmosphere are heating the ocean.

(Link C) The high salt level in ocean water makes it highly undrinkable for humans, as our bodies are not made to ingest water that salty. (Link D) Ocean water can be used to water crops if it has gone through a desalination process. (Image B) Putting plain ocean water on the roots of a plant will kill it. When a plant becomes desalinated it becomes drinkable.

This process reduces PH levels, carbonate ion concentration, and important minerals. (Link F) This can be very harmful to marine life as they do not receive the support they need. Since the beginning of the industrial era, ocean ph has fallen by .1 ph units. This is approximately a 30% increase in ocean acidity. This rise in acidity is damaging organisms like coral, pteropods, and shellfish. Human-produced levels of CO2 are causing the oceans to become more acidic. (Link G) The dramatic decrease in ocean PH levels is concerning for the marine ecosystem, and largely due to human activity.

While these temperatures may vary based on location and proximity to the equator, there are regular levels they should remain at for the benefit of marine life. (Link J) SSTs have been regularly increasing for many years, due to the average surface temperature of the planet increasing. Areas located near the equator have been setting new records of highs for SSTs. (Video A) The temperature of the sea's surface determines the conditions in which it's ecosystems survive, and any alteration is potentially hazardous. Carbon dioxide emissions in past years have heated the oceans.

(Link A) Mass amounts of emission from human activities like burning fossil fuels are being trapped in the atmosphere, resulting in a warmer climate. (Graph A) Lower albedo levels mean more of the sun's heat is being absorbed, and drastically less is being reflected into space. The mass concentration of GHG in the atmosphere is heating the earth faster than it can be radiated back to space.

This energy is then reflected into space, warming the planet's temperature to a livable climate. Oxygen and nitrogen are not affected by infrared radiation. However, greenhouse gases are. Carbon dioxide (and other GHG) absorbs infrared radiation and re-emits the energy in all directions, contributing to the greenhouse effect. (Link B) Increasing levels of CO2 within the atmosphere means more heat is being redirected toward the planet, causing global warming.

Clouds have the ability to both heat and cool the earth, largely depending on the type. Clouds like marine stratus and stratocumulus cool the earth by shading 1/5 of the oceans reflecting 1/3-2/3 of the energy from the sun. Clouds can also absorb and trap heat, contributing to the increase of earth's temperatures. At night, clouds rapidly absorb heat, acting as a heating blanket from the part of the planet turned away from the sun. (Link C) Clouds that are lower in the atmosphere have a cooling effect, while higher clouds are generally responsible for the heating.

Warm water causes the pacific jet stream to move south of its usual neutral position. At this time, the northern United States and Canada become dryer and warmer. The gulf coast and southeast America experience more rain and have increased flooding. (Link D) India and the Philippines also experience increased warm weather. More tropical storms occur across the Pacific ocean near the equator.

Weather: 
The United States has seen a dramatic rise in weather-related catastrophes in the last decade. Weather-related disasters such as hurricanes and wildfires have great impact upon the lives of civilians. Major disasters inflict damages that can cost upwards of one billion dollars.

No, a rapid decline in plant life on the face of the earth correlates with an increase in CO2 levels. (Link C) 
B. Does this statement support climate science research?
Yes, because climate science research has found that CO2 levels are getting higher and plants are being killed for development and consumption.
