GREENHOUSE AFFECT the ability to trap heat keeps our planet warm and habitable

GLOBAL WARMING Excess CO 2 released from burning of fossil fuels Possible correlation between temperature and CO 2 levels Adds to the “greenhouse” to trapping heat Could affect amphibian/reptile development as well as weather and agriculture

ACID RAIN Burning fossils fuels produces CO 2, H 2 O water, and other gases Burning of coal produces H 2 SO 4 (sulfuric acid) and burning of gasoline produces HNO 3 (nitric acid) These pollutants enter the atmosphere to form acidic water (acid rain) Some bodies of water can buffer the effects of acid rain
