Inquiry #4

Global Warming Inquiry

Introduction:

Hello, Class, My topic on this inquiry is Global Warming. There are lots of Bad things about global warming; The Icebergs are melting and, it’s increasing the sea level, and it’s destroying the animal’s habitats I think That we should Make most of the cars electric and use renewable energy.


What is Global warming:

Global Warming is a big thing that affects the world, Its destroys lots of animal habitats and makes the whole earth hotter and hotter every year. It makes the land and sea hotter, you might be asking how much does it affect the word, it makes sea levels rise because it is destroying lots of icebergs and its also causing more severe weather.


What Country Produces Global Warming The Most:

The country that produces the most CO2 is China you might have expected that but it produced 9.3GT in 2017 that is 9.3 billion tones of CO2. Most of that CO2 is produced only because the country is to overpopulation.


What Are The Other Effects Of Global Warming:

There are lots of other effects there is like climate change and greenhouse gases both of these things are linked to global warming. climate change is where there are more severe weathers like hurricanes and other stuff. Greenhouse gases are stuff that pollutes

the air and make the earth hotter and damage the ocean


How Did Global Warming Start:

Global warming starts when Greenhouse gases and other air pollutants all go into the air and absorbs sunlight and solar radiation that have bounced off the earth surface. Global Warming started in the late 1800s and it is still happening we haven’t really done anything about it but we should because it is damaging the earth


What is Greenhouse Gasses:

Greenhouse gasses are gasses in the earth atmosphere that traps heat. There are lots of types of greenhouse gasses like Carbon Dioxide, Water Vapor and much more. Greenhouse gases do a lot to the earth it heats it and makes weather more severe. The Worst Greenhouse gas is Carbon Dioxide. You probably know where that is from its from Animals Humans and much more its when they breathe out it makes Carbon Dioxide


What Does Global warming Have To Do With Sea Levels Rising:

Global Warming has a big effect on the ocean and the sea levels because it is destroying lots of habitats for animals and all the icebergs are melting because it is becoming too hot for the icebergs. Since 1992 80% of the glaciers in the Himalayas, they also said if it keeps rapidly melting all the glaciers will be gone in 2035. The past 10 years, the sea levels have risen by 2.6 inches. The ocean is starting to get hotter and it is destroying all habitats. They are also destroying places like the great barrier reef and other things in the ocean. The sea levels are rising because of global warming it is making the earth hotter and it’s melting all the icebergs. Its also affecting the wildlife and their habitats. It also causes wetland flooding. The more the sea levels go up the worse the hurricanes and typhoons get when they happen



How Much Has Global Warming Change In The Past 10 Years:

In the past 10 years, global warming has made the whole world a lot warmer. They said that 2016 was the hottest ever year according to the scientist. And in the past couple of year, the Winter storms have reduced because of global warming and climate change. In 2016 the most Co2 was produced ever and the greenhouse gases were just phenomenal.


Possible Solution:

1 of the possible solutions for global warming and to reduce greenhouse gasses it to make homes use renewable energy you might ask what is renewable energy, renewable energy is an energy that natural for example like solar energy they use a natural source of energy because it from the sun. Renewable energy is an energy that can never run out it is endless. It is also a lot different. Some of the negatives for renewable energy is it costs a bit at the start to pay all the renewable energy. If you get Renewable energy it will last longer and you have an unlimited amount of energy


Should We Make Car Electric:

If we decide to make cars electric it will be fewer fumes in the air and it will reduce greenhouse gasses. Making cars will be effective but it will cost a bit more money. If you need a battery for your car and you don’t have one at home you might have to wait in queue for a while because charging up a car battery does take a while. Electric cars will be handy because it will be better for the environment. There are some electric cars already like the Teslas I have seen some videos about the difference about an electric car and normal car the normal car takes a while to speed up and it produces a lot more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the electric.


Should We Get rid Of Cow:

If you didn’t know cows produce a lot of greenhouse gases, you may ask why and its because they produce a lot of methane gases. Methane is a powerful Greenhouse gas because it gets leaked into the atmosphere and heats up the way and that’s how it get into the air cows produce it from digesting it out of there system on a solution to get rid of methane is put seaweed in the cow’s food but one bad thing is if we get rid of the cows we will have less meat then the system of life breaks.


Conclusion:

In Conclusion, Global warming has a big effect on the world because all the Glaciers and the reefs are getting Destroyed. And the past year has been very hot. We need to reduce all the greenhouse gases and should make cars electric and reduce using fumes that can affect the environment. If we got rid of cars that use the fuel it would reduce 15% of the greenhouse gasses
