Answer:

  • Greenhouse effect: warming up of the earth's surface due to the high immersion of man-made carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
  • The concentration of carbon dioxide works like a gas panel of greenhouse allowing short incoming wave of solar radiation to come in but preventing the long heat wave to re-radiate out.

Measure to avoid a large increase in temperature of greenhouse emission such as:

  • Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
  • Factories install smoke filters.
  • The vehicle uses natural gas or batteries.
  • Use less heat and air conditioning.
  • Do not burn plastic and other trash in open.
  • Plant seedlings and trees.
  • Enforce strict law on environment protection.
  • Make people aware of Environmental campaign.

Answer:

Earth’s climate is changing rapidly. We know this from billions of observations, documented in thousands of journal papers and texts and summarized every few years by the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The primary cause of that change is the release of carbon dioxide from burning coal, oil and natural gas.

One of the goals of the international Paris Agreement on climate change is to limit the increase of the global surface average air temperature to 2 degrees Celsius, compared to preindustrial times. There is a further commitment to strive to limit the increase to 1.5℃.

Earth has already, essentially, reached the 1℃ threshold. Despite the avoidance of millions of tons of carbon dioxide emissions through use of renewable energy, increased efficiency and conservation efforts, the rate of increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere remains high.

International plans on how to deal with climate change are painstakingly difficult to cobble together and take decades to work out. Most climate scientists and negotiators were dismayed by President Trump’s announcement that the U.S. will withdraw from the Paris Agreement.

But setting aside the politics, how much warming are we already locked into? If we stop emitting greenhouse gases right now, why would the temperature continue to rise?

Basics of carbon and climate

The carbon dioxide that accumulates in the atmosphere insulates the surface of the Earth. It’s like a warming blanket that holds in heat. This energy increases the average temperature of the Earth’s surface, heats the oceans and melts polar ice. As consequences, sea level rises and weather changes.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
Absolute zero is the temperature at which the motion of particles that constitute heat will be minimal. The answer is A. It is the lowest temperature that is theoretically possible. It is zero on the kelvin scale, but equivalent to -273.15°C. Hope i helped.

Which technology is used to deal with waste management?
Alisiya [41]
<span>D) recycling ;)


Waste Management's Aerobic-Anaerobic Bioreactor* is designed to accelerate waste degradation by combining attributes of the aerobic and anaerobic bioreactors. The objective of the sequential aerobic-anaerobic treatment is to cause the rapid biodegradation of food and other easily degradable waste in the aerobic stage in order to reduce the production of organic acids in the anaerobic stage resulting in the earlier onset of methanogenesis. In this system the uppermost lift or layer of waste is aerated, while the lift immediately below it receives liquids. Landfill gas is extracted from each lift below the lift receiving liquids. Horizontal wells that are installed in each lift during landfill construction are used convey the air, liquids, and landfill gas. The principle advantage of the hybrid approach is that it combines the operational simplicity of the anaerobic process with the treatment efficiency of the aerobic process. Added benefits include an expanded potential for destruction of volatile organic compounds in the waste mass. (*US Patent 6,283,676 B1)</span>
