Greenhouse effect refers to the warming from greenhouse gases, and enhanced greenhouse effect refers to the warming due to anthropogenic factors.]]> 2022-07-25 02:36:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2248994826 Rupessh, Asyraf, Aify, Halimatul https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2248998544 Defination: Agriculture is the growing of crops and the rearing of animals to provide food, wool and other products.

Impacts: Food provisioning also releases greenhouse gases to the atmosphere so, the more the people farm for living, more greenhouse gases will be in the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases such as methane and nitrous oxide that is released from farming, absorbs the shortwave radiation and thus since more these greenhouse gases are given out, more of these shortwave radiaton is given out. When more shortwave radiation is given out, more heat is produced to the atmosphere and thus agriculture contributes to climate change.

Examples:  Over the last 150 years, 476 billions of tonnes of carbon has been emitted from farmland soils due to inappropriate farming and grazing practices this has emitted an voluminous amounts of heat in the atmosphere.]]> 2022-07-25 02:40:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2248998544 WenHui https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2248998572 Greenhouse effect refers to the process when the gases in the Earth atmosphere traps the sun heat. Enhance greenhouse effect refers to the warming due to anthropogenic factors. Greenhouse effect is natural while enhance greenhouse effect is caused by human activities. ]]> 2022-07-25 02:40:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2248998572 Chee Yang, Dev, David, Jeun Wei https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2248998676 Green house effect is the trapping of the sun’s warmth in a planet’s lower atmosphere, due to the greater transparency of the atmosphere to visible radiation from the sun than to infrared radiation emitted from the planet’s surface. Greenhouse effects is also due to the natural occurrence of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Because of the natural greenhouse effect, Earth is warm and supports life. 

The enhanced greenhouse effect are due to human activities that have led to high concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

impacts of deforestation:
it can lead to increasing carbon dioxide in two ways , forests help remove a large amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide when plants carry out photosynthesis. Deforestation leads to fewer trees and other plants  to absorb carbon dioxide and hence resulting in more carbon dioxide remaining in the atmosphere. The second way deforestation causes soil to be exposed to sunlight ,Soil also contains larges amounts of carbon due to its accumulation of carbon through decay of organic matter such as dead leaves and animals. Deforestation results in an increase in soil temperatures  which increases the rate of carbon dioxide which produces carbon dioxide due to the reaction between carbon in the soil and oxygen in the air.


Examples of deforestation:
Deforestation in Brazil's Amazon rainforest reached a record high for the first six months of the year, as an area five times the size of New York City was destroyed, preliminary government data showed on Friday (July 8).
From January to June, 3,988 square km were cleared in the region, according to national space research agency Inpe.

There are dozens of industries classifications.


Impacts:  Industries contribute to climate change from the usage and combustion of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide, methane and many other greenhouses gases which contribute to the enhanced greenhouse effect which would trap more heat, and increase the Earth’s temperature 🌡.

Examples: This would impact on many wildlife creatures and plants as the increase of temperature would be difficult for them to adapt. Ice shelves will melt which causes the glaciers to fall into the ocean and contribute to the rising sea level. Industries also causes acid rain to occur, which corrodes limestone and marble building, and deteriorates it. Industries like the transportation industry, agriculture, Electricity production are the main causes of it.

Definition: Industries are economic activities concerning with the process of raw materials and manufacture of goods in factories.

Impacts: Industries affect climate change by releasing toxic materials and gases which are burnt and released into the atmosphere such as carbon dioxide and methane.These chemicals and toxic materials can destroy the fertility of things like soil which will decrease the productivity of crops and even lead to the contamination of foods that we may eventually consume.

Example: Examples of industries affecting climate change would be industries that produce heat and electricity,agriculture, forestry and other land use and industries that provide transportation]]> 2022-07-26 00:55:20 UTC https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249563586 Anirah, Ru Hui, Fareesha https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249566328 Greenhouse Effect
Greenhouse effect is where gases trap heat at lower atmosphere by absorbing shortwave radiation emitted by the sun through long wave radiation.

Difference between Greenhouse Effect & Enhanced Greenhouse Effect
The difference is that Greenhouse effect is a natural effect to keep earth at a level necessary to support life but enhanced greenhouse effect is due to human activities that generates more greenhouse gases, greater concentration of greenhouse gases trapping more heat raising temperatures .]]> 2022-07-26 00:59:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249566328 Xin Nee , Evelina , Germaine , Jia Bao and Bernice https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249580786 definition : agriculture is the practice of cultivating land , producing crops and raising livestock.

 impact pollution agriculture is the leading source of pollution in many countries. pesticides, fertiliser and other toxic farm chemicals can poison freaks her water , marine ecosystems, air and soil. they also can remain in the environment for generations.

example cattle farming. cattle farming contributes to greenhouse gas emissions because cattle release methane as a waste gas. millions of tonnes of methane are release each year from cattle farming. ]]> 2022-07-26 01:20:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249580786 Maathesh,Chanel,Han and Irshad https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249584559 Anthropogenic factor : Deforestation

Definition : Deforestation is the loss of forests due to the removal or clearance of trees in forested areas .

Impacts : With Deforestation , there are fewer trees and other plants to absorb carbon dioxide , leading to an increase in carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is also emitted during the process deforestation and land clearance .

Examples : Between 2000 and 2012, Indonesia lost over 15 million acres of forest due to the expansion of the palm oil industry.

Definition:
Deforestation is the purposeful clearing of forested land.

Impacts:
The deforestation causes climate change, desertification, soil erosion, fewer crops, flooding, increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and a host of problems for indigenous people.It also causes loss of biodiversity, damage to natural habitats, disturbances tin the water cycle, and soil erosion. 

Example:
The Amazon rainforest, Indonesia and Borneo, and Africa. In
Amazon had a loss of  13,235 square kilometers of forest between August 2020 and July 2021. In Indonesia, more than a million hectares of Indonesian rainforest is cleared and lost each year, with about 70% occurring in forests on mineral soils and 30% on carbon-rich peatland forests.

Impact: Agriculture is a major part of the climate problem. It currently generates 19–29% of total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Without action, that percentage could rise substantially as other sectors reduce their emissions. Additionally, 1/3 of food produced globally is either lost or wasted.

Example: Cattle farming contributes to greenhouse gas emission because cattle release methane as a waste gas. Millions of tons of methane gas is release into the atmosphere from cattle farming. ]]> 2022-07-26 01:35:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249592046 Maathesh , Chanel , Han and Irshad https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249592688 https://youtu.be/EDapJEZWQV4]]> 2022-07-26 01:36:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249592688 Gian Fatt ,Aristotle, Caden, Ashwin https://padlet.com/mohamed_nazri_hamzah/2ycr3q1j47436el2/wish/2249599294 Definition of agriculture:
Agriculture is the practise of cultivating land to produce crops and the raising of livestocks

Impacts of agriculture:
Rice cultivation and cattle farming can release a large amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, the burning of fossil fuels to power the tractors can release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The use of inorganic fertilisers increases the amount of nitrous oxide in the soil. This substance is released from the soil when soil is ploughed or washed away by rainwater. The decomposition of organic matter such as dead leaves and manure releases methane into the air. The rate of decomposition in rice fields is high due to a large amount of moisture in the soil. In cattle farming, it can release large amounts of methane into the air each year as cattle produces methane as a waste gas due to their slow digestive system.
