1. We know the earth is getting warmer because temperatures have risen all around the globe. Also, the Arctic is melting.
2. The Earth temperature changes because of green house gases and harmful gases being sent into the atmosphere.
3. The greenhouse effect is a process that occurs when gases in Earth’s atmosphere trap the Sun’s heat.
4. Factories.
5. It could cause more flooding and a rise of warmer temperatures.
6. Permafrost is ground that continuously below 0 degrees Celsius for two or more years.
Hope this helps!
I assume that the question refers to the political affiliation of the Islands (They are Islands in the Mariana Trench, in the Pacific Ocean, south of Japan) - they are politically linked to the US - the correct answer is a). For example the Mariana islands have a commonwealth status within the US.
The greenhouse effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere (water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and methane, for example) trap energy from the sun. Normal warming is mostly caused by natural gases.
