HERE IS YOUR ANSWER BRO

I HOPE IT WILL HELP YOU.

This graph, based on the comparison of atmospheric samples contained in ice cores and more recent direct measurements, provides evidence that atmospheric CO2 has increased since the Industrial Revolution. (Credit: Luthi, D., et al.. 2008; Etheridge, D.M., et al. 2010; Vostok ice core data/J.R. Petit et al.; NOAA Mauna Loa CO2 record.) Find out more about ice cores (external site).

The Earth's climate has changed throughout history. Just in the last 650,000 years there have been seven cycles of glacial advance and retreat, with the abrupt end of the last ice age about 11,700 years ago marking the beginning of the modern climate era — and of human civilization. Most of these climate changes are attributed to very small variations in Earth’s orbit that change the amount of solar energy our planet receives.

Scientific evidence for warming of the climate system is unequivocal.

- Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

The current warming trend is of particular significance because most of it is extremely likely (greater than 95 percent probability) to be the result of human activity since the mid-20th century and proceeding at a rate that is unprecedented over decades to millennia.1

Earth-orbiting satellites and other technological advances have enabled scientists to see the big picture, collecting many different types of information about our planet and its climate on a global scale. This body of data, collected over many years, reveals the signals of a changing climate.

The heat-trapping nature of carbon dioxide and other gases was demonstrated in the mid-19th century.2 Their ability to affect the transfer of infrared energy through the atmosphere is the scientific basis of many instruments flown by NASA. There is no question that increased levels of greenhouse gases must cause the Earth to warm in response.

Ice cores drawn from Greenland, Antarctica, and tropical mountain glaciers show that the Earth’s climate responds to changes in greenhouse gas levels. Ancient evidence can also be found in tree rings, ocean sediments, coral reefs, and layers of sedimentary rocks. This ancient, or paleoclimate, evidence reveals that current warming is occurring roughly ten times faster than the average rate of ice-age-recovery warming.3

## The evidence for rapid climate change is compelling:

Global Temperature Rise :-

The planet's average surface temperature has risen about 1.62 degrees Fahrenheit (0.9 degrees Celsius) since the late 19th century, a change driven largely by increased carbon dioxide and other human-made emissions into the atmosphere.4 Most of the warming occurred in the past 35 years, with the six warmest years on record taking place since 2014. Not only was 2016 the warmest year on record, but eight of the 12 months that make up the year — from January through September, with the exception of June — were the warmest on record for those respective months.

During what part of Bernice Bobs Her Hair does Bernice cuts Majories braids?
Alex Ar [27]
 Bernice cuts Marjorie's braids in the short story "Bernice Bobs Her Hair" just before she sneaks out of town the night before an important party held in her and Majorie's honor. Marjorie tricks Bernice into cutting her hair into a bob because she is jealous that Wayne shifted his attention from Marjorie to Bernice. In the story, a girl with a bob is scandalous and is only seen on "liberated" women. Bernice throws the cut braids onto Wayne's front porch on her way out of town.

Triangle RST has vertices located at R (2, 3), S (4, 4), and T (5, 0). Part A: Find the length of each side of the triangle. Sho
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The length of the sides of the triangle are; √5, √17 and √18, the slopes are; (1/2), -4 and -1.

<h3>What are the lengths of the sides of the triangle?</h3>

According to coordinates of the vertices given; it follows that the length of each side can be evaluated as follows;

Side RS = √((4-2)² + (4-3)²) = √5

Side ST = √((5-4)² + (0-4)²) = √17

Side TR = √((5-2)² + (0-3)²) = √18

The slopes can be evaluated as;

Slope RS = (4-3)/(4-2) = 1/2

Slope ST = (0-4)/(5-4) = -4

Slope TR = (0-3)/(5-2) = -1.

Since, none of the lines are equal and the slopes do not indicate perpendicular lines, it follows the triangle RST is scalene.
