KEY CONCEPT Fossil fuel emissions affect the biosphere.

Pollutants accumulate in the air. Pollution is any undesirable factor added to the air, water, or soil Examples: Pollution from factories Household chemicals Exhaust from cars Can be immediate or delayed Chloroflourocarbons

Most common air pollution is from burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas Smog is one type of air pollution. sunlight interacts with pollutants in the air pollutants produced by fossil fuel emissions made of particulates and ground-level ozone Smog can be harmful to human health.

Smog can be harmful to human health. “Ozone” Acid rain is caused by fossil fuel emissions. produced when pollutants in the water cycle cause rain pH to drop can lower the pH of a lake or stream can harm trees

Air pollution is changing Earth’s biosphere. The levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide rise and fall over time. High levels of carbon dioxide are typical of Earth’s warmer periods.

sunlight penetrates Earth’s atmosphere The greenhouse effect slows the release of energy from Earth’s atmosphere. sunlight penetrates Earth’s atmosphere energy is absorbed and reradiated as heat greenhouse gases absorb longer wavelengths Greenhouse gas molecules rerelease infrared radiation methane (CH4) water (H2O) carbon dioxide (CO2)

Global warming refers to the trend of increasing global temperatures. Over the past 100 years, the average global temperature has risen 0.6 degrees Celsius Result of increased levels of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, water, and methane North Pole
