Warm-up: Explain the differences between global warming and ozone depletion.

What is the difference between global warming and ozone depletion? Two completely different issues Warming of the Earth Caused by greenhouse gases Results from burning fossil fuels and deforestation Break down of ozone (O3) Caused by CFCs (man-made pollutants) Increased UV radiation

Global Warming

Scientific Consensus? How much controversy is there in the scientific community regarding global warming and climate change?

Naomi Oreskes “Beyond the Ivory Tower” (2004) 75% 25% 0% Survey of 928 papers on global climate change published in peer-reviewed scientific journals between 1993 and 2003 75% What percentage of the studies DISAGREED with human- caused global warming? What’s the scientific consensus on global climate change? agreed that humans are causing the earth’s climate to warm up. 25% Studying other climate data (no position) 0% http://www.sciencemag.org/content/306/5702/1686.full

Peter Doran University of Illinois (2009) 96% 97% Among the scientists who are experts specializing in climatology: 96% 97% 100% 76 out of 79 climate scientists agreed that the earth is warming. 75 out of 77 agreed that humans are responsible for the change in climate. http://tigger.uic.edu/~pdoran/012009_Doran_final.pdf

Global Warming Causes – “Greenhouse gases” collect in the atmosphere and trap the heat from the sun in the Earth’s atmosphere The #1 Greenhouse Gas = Carbon dioxide builds up from: Burning fossil fuels Emissions from cars and factories Deforestation (cutting down trees)

Greenhouse Gases Global Warming CO2 CH4 N2O Greenhouse gas Human Activity CO2 Fossil fuels; Burning anything; Power plants; Deforestation Carbon dioxide CH4 Fossil fuels; farming (cows); landfills; sewage; decomposition Methane N2O Fertilizers; Factories (20x better at trapping heat than CO2) Nitrous oxide

Greenhouse Gas Producers Global Warming Greenhouse Gas Producers

Across the World Global Warming In 2007, China surpassed the United States in greenhouse gas emissions, although the US still is #1 per capita. Scientists estimate that China will double its greenhouse gas production in the next 20 years. http://www.spiegel.de/international/world/0,1518,611818,00.html

Trapped Methane Deposits Global Warming Trapped Methane Deposits Warming melts ice and releases the methane bubbles frozen in the arctic permafrost Holy methane! Free methane goes into the atmosphere and causes more warming

What are possible effects of global warming? Rise in Temperature Melting of ice-caps Rise in sea level Large-scale climate change Destruction of ecosystems Spread of malaria from tropics Increase in number and severity of hurricanes Changes in ocean currents New ice age?

Hottest Years On Record Global Warming Hottest Years On Record Of the hottest 12 years on record, 10 of them were in the last decade! http://www.economist.com/blogs/dailychart/2010/12/climate_change

Global Warming Temperature over last 1,000 years Is this an average temperature fluctuation?

Global Warming Is this a normal level of carbon dioxide? CO2 and temperature The last 600,000 years Does temperature data correlate to atmospheric CO2 levels?

The “Cold” Hard Facts Global Warming Major findings of the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC 2001) The concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere has increased by 31% since 1750. The current CO2 concentration is at the highest level in the last 420,000 years. Atmospheric CO2 is increasing at a faster rate today than at any time over the past 20,000 years. The current concentration of methane (CH4) is at its highest level in the last 420,000 years. How can we possibly know what the temperature and atmosphere were like thousands of years ago?

The answer lies in the glacial ice of… Global Warming Ice Cores The answer lies in the glacial ice of… Antarctica! Why is Antarctica the only place where we can find out about the climate 400,000 years ago?

Effects of Deforestation Global Warming Effects of Deforestation How much carbon is stored in the forests of the world? What happens as these areas become cleared? http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/earth20110531_prt.htm

Carbon Sinks Global Warming Fossil fuels underground Where else is carbon stored on Earth? On the sea floor Living things How is this carbon released into the atmosphere?
