So, Is the planet warming up?

• According to past and recent weather forecasts,
  as well as graphs, have shown that heat is
  increasing by the year due to Carbon dioxide.

3
Answer

• New weather patterns and a rise in natural
  disasters suggest that the Earths climate is in
  fact changing.

4
Humans are a small part of global warming

• Through the use of fossil fuels and power plants,
  humans have contributed heavily to the pollution
  in the atmosphere.

5
Global warming

• Causes
• Burning of fossil fuels
• Elevated amounts of carbon dioxide in the
  atmosphere
• Human influence , aerosol, exhaust gases in
  automobiles

6
Carbon dioxide

• Large amounts of carbon dioxide, which are caused
  by burning fossil fuels and the reduction in
  plant life, is one of the main causes of global
  warming.

7
Carbon Dioxide (continued)

• Vehicles, airplanes, machinery, factories and
  other hazardous things cause Carbon Dioxide.
• The only factories that doesnt cause Carbon
  Dioxide are cotton growing factories.

8
Cars

• Cars run on gasoline which burn and release
  exhaust from the car.
• The exhaust is made up of carbon dioxide gases.

9
Cars (continued)

• We could slow down global warming by having our
  cars maintained regularly.
• Also if we find an alternate way to power are
  cars we can slow it down.

10
Airplanes

• Airplanes are another way of getting around that
  uses fuel.
• If we find another way to power airplanes we
  could slow it a lot.

11
Airplanes (continued)

• Airplanes are the second most producers of global
  warming.
• A lot of people fly because its faster to get
  where you want go, but this uses a lot of fuel.

12
Carbon Dioxide (continued)

• Carbon Dioxide will affect the oceans sea levels
  and weather patterns.
• It might even make a prematurely ice age due to
  this green house effect.

13
Atmosphere

• The atmosphere is filled with 21 oxygen, 78
  nitrogen, and 1 argon .040 carbon dioxide 1
  water vapor.

14
Is there time to stop Global Warming

• Yes there is, but we have to take action now.
• We might be able to slow down if people do it all
  together

15
What can we do?

• It is going to take the government and
  individuals to take some drastic measures and
  effort.
• The government are having meetings with high
  producing carbon dioxide companies.

16
What are the effects if we cant stop it.

• Some major effects are multi-century ice melts of
  polar ice sheets, with rising sea levels, climate
  changes with slowing of ocean currents, and loss
  of glaciers which supply China, India, and South
  America with fresh water.

17
What individuals might believe

• 70 of Americans believe its possible to reduce
  the effects of global warming.
• Around 59 think their actions help the situation.

18
What individuals might believe (continued)

• 35 are actually doing something about it rather
  than thinking their actions are helping the
  solution.
• So we think that some of the people are really
  trying.

19
How much time would it take?

• We would think that it would take a lot of time
  and effort to solve this problem globally.
• It would involve people, countries, and
  governments.

20
How much money would we use?

• We might need about 100 million dollars from all
  the people, including the government.
• This would be a difficult task.

21
Government meetings

• The government are having meetings with other
  governments on how to stabilize green house
  emissions.
• For example, automobiles produce gas emissions.

22
Reversing the problem

• Can global warming be undone?
• The World has been heating up since the last ice
  age.
• Fossil fuels only add about 10 of the total
  amount of pollution today

23
Are Humans a major cause of global warming?

• Humans only contribute about 10 percent of the
  total pollutants in the atmosphere.
• However the need for energy, has created a need
  for power plants that create pollution

24
Reversing the damage

• Through a collaborative effort between the
  government and citizens the effects of global
  warming would slowly but surely reverse
  themselves.
• Limiting the usage of vehicles that ran on fossil
  fuels would also lower carbon dioxide deposits in
  the atmosphere

25
How do we reverse the damage?

• Through the use of higher efficiency vehicles
  more eco friendly power plants and inexpensive
  techniques we can start to reverse the damage

26
Power plants

• Power plants contribute heavily to air pollution
• However through the use of a slurry system, that
  filters exhaust fumes. The total amount of
  pollution entering the atmosphere is greatly
  limited.

27
Public transportation

• Public transportation helps reduce emissions by
  having less vehicles on the road at anyone time.
• Some forms of public transportation are also
  starting to switch to higher efficiency power
  trains as well as hydrogen powered.
• Public transportation is also cheaper

28
Vehicle advancement

• Through the advancement in automotive technology
  we have been able to create vehicles that dont
  need fossil fuels.
• The Honda FCX for example uses a complex system
  of hydrogen fc stack which converts hydrogen in
  the air into oxygen and water ZERO emissions

29
Is Global warming a worldwide scam?

• Many nations around the world believe that global
  warming is something that nations like the United
  States created in order to scare people into
  buying less fuel and more eco friendly cars.

30
Power plants (continued)

• The Government might also be trying to fix itself
  to a small degree by creating more of an
  incentive for people to buy fuel efficient cars
  as well as hydrogen and electrical powered cars.
