The greenhouse effect is an essential phenomenon for life on earth. However, human activities such as pollution and burning of fossil fuels have caused an intensification of this effect, which has harmed the atmosphere and is directly related to global warming.

The greenhouse effect is formed by a layer of atmospheric gases that settle around the planet and allows a temperature suitable for life to reach the earth's surface. Therefore, we can guarantee that this effect is essential for our survival. It is necessary that the amount of these gases is kept in equilibrium for this temperature to be constant.

However, the burning of fossil fuels, industrial activities, pollution (caused by vehicles, aerosols, fires, among others), the use of non-renewable energy releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere daily and in large quantities.

This causes the layer of greenhouse gases that circulates the earth to become more and more expanded, not being able to disperse solar radiation easily and causing an increasing temperature. All that heat is retained in the atmosphere, thus generating global warming, which allows the planet's temperature and ocean water to increase dramatically, which can cause various harmful effects to life on the planet.

For this reason, it is necessary to carry out public policies that reduce pollution and encourage the use of clean and renewable energy that does not increase the layer of greenhouse cases, promoting well-being and life on earth.

For each of the following, circle the word that does not belong belong with the rest and then in ONE complete sentence, explain
Vika [28.1K]

Answer: the words that doesn't belong include:

1.) Power

2.) Deforestation

Explanation:

1.) Coal, Oil, Solar and Natural Gas are considered to be sources of energy while POWER is not considered among the rest this is because it's energy in action and not a source of energy.

Coal, oil and natural gas are known as fossil fuels which are the most common sources of energy in industries and homes. These fossil fuels are destroyed by use, that is, they cannot be recovered. Alternative sources of energy is the solar which is gotten from the sun energy. Although not considered a very efficient energy producer, there are already discovered schemes that would provide us with an inexhaustible supply of energy which would also not cause any pollution problems.

2.) Biodegradable, Recycling and Sustainability are means by which pollution is being avoided in the environment. While DEFORESTATION is a process that can cause pollution of an environment, therefore it doesn't fit into the rest of other words.

Biodegradable materials can be broken down by microorganism. Examples include human and animal excreta. Recycling is the reprocessing of waste materials in order to be re-used. This reduces the amount of waste that are sent to incinerators. While sustainability is the maintenance of the ecosystem to remain diverse and productive over time. This could be seen in the preferred use of renewable energy over non renewable energy. But deforestation is the massive cutting down of trees which can cause soil erosion and climate changes leading to the pollution of the environment.
