Greenhouse Gases

“Greenhouse gases are gases that absorb infrared light and cause the greenhouse effect,” according to the Environmental Protection Agency. Carbon dioxide and chlorofluorocarbons, to name a few examples.” CO2 emissions are a type of greenhouse gas. The fundamental source of the Greenhouse Effect is the release of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide.Factories, vehicles, deforestation, […]

Greenhouse Effect Gases

The earth’s atmosphere contains several chemical substances that act as greenhouse gases. Most of the visible light from the Sun passes through the atmosphere and reaches the Earth’s surface. When the Earth’s surface is heated by sunlight, a portion of the energy is radiated back into space as infrared radiation. Unlike visible light, this radiation

Global warming-pollution due to industrial wastes

Introduction  Industries and factories release numerous pollutants into the atmosphere as well as the land, air and waters. It has been found more than half of all pollution is as a result of industrial and producing activities. It solely displays however industries and factories are answerable for giving off poisonous and dangerous materials into the

Global warming and the greenhouse effect

Introduction The planet is steadily warming. This is due to the growth in human-caused greenhouse gases that has resulted in health, environmental, and humanitarian crises. Despite this, the threat of climate change provides a real chance to shift to a low-carbon civilization while also providing jobs, innovation, and social justice on a local and global

Global Warming

Changes in temperature and weather patterns over extended periods of time are referred to as “climate change.” These shifts may be natural, but human activities have been the primary driver of climate change since the 1800s. This is primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels (such as coal, oil, and natural gas), which releases

Gases Transportation

Climate change and modern transportation are linked in numerous ways. The life-changing technology innovations that brought in new forms of transportation throughout the Industrial Revolution are the same technologies that have led to the planet’s extensive pollution. In the second part of the eighteenth century, when machines began to substitute human work, the usage of

Fuel Substitution

When contrasted to numerous different industries, like the energy generating and manufacturing industries, the transportation industry has few choices for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This study estimates the own- as well as cross-price elasticities of multiple transport fuels in order to better recognise the potential reduction in fuel usage and related emissions that could be

Fog and Mist

Fog appears when water vapour (water in its gaseous form) condenses. Mist is a phenomenon caused by small droplets of water suspended in the cold air. Fog Fog is a visible aerosol made up of microscopic water droplets or ice crystals hanging in the air near or at the surface of the Earth. Fog is

Factors Affecting Biodiversity

Biodiversity refers to all living things, including plants, bacteria, animals, and humans. In other words, biodiversity refers to any species in a region or ecosystem. There are three types of biodiversity – species biodiversity, genetic biodiversity and ecosystem biodiversity. In this article, we will be studying the factors affecting biodiversity, factors influencing biodiversity and factors

Exhaust from Factories and Industries

In today’s society, pollution is the major phrase that we are all familiar with. The different forms of pollution that we encounter daily are discussed and reported on in the news media. Indoor and outdoor air pollution are both examples of pollution, and air pollution is among the most prevalent types. It is possible to
