greenhouse gases can cause Earth's atmosphere to trap more and more heat. This causes Earth to warm up.
The following are the statements, which indicates that the fossil record suggests about evolution on Earth:
1. Humans have only recently existed on Earth.
2. The organisms originally lived only in Earth's water.
3. The plants did not have flowers when dinosaurs existed.
The fossil remains have been discovered in the rocks of all the ages. The simplest organisms fossils are witnessed in the oldest rocks, and the fossils of more composite species are found in the newest rocks. This supports the theory of evolution suggested by Darwin, according to which the simple life forms slowly gets evolved into more composite ones.
white phosphorus is used in flares and explosives, so may be important in warfare, etc. Red phosphorus is used in matches (side of matches) and in fertilizers which are essential to growing plants. I don't know if that is economically important, but there are many ways that phosphorus benifit the economy. One downside on the economy is that phosphorus is one of the main ingredients in meth, which of course causes trouble for the economy ( law enforcement, medical, etc. )
As of now, the nuclear fission is the most feasible energy source for human use. All the nuclear power plants are based on the controlled nuclear fission reaction, where the unstable nucleus is bombarded with high speed neutrons, thus, splitting the nucleus into stable ones and releasing huge amount of energy. The nuclear fusion requires very high temperature, the temperature equal's to that of the sun. Hence, it is not feasible right now. As the technology advances, we will see advancement in other form of energies.
