8
The Source What is ONE harmful way carbon can get into the atmosphere to make carbon dioxide—plants, animals, or cars and powerplants?? What is the main reason for global warming? cars/power plants
9
Global Warming Vocab Global Warming: A gradual increase in the average temperature of the Earth Greenhouse Effect: process by which certain gases in Earth’s atmosphere trap energy from the sun and warm up Earth Greenhouse Gas: Types of gas, like CO 2, that cause the greenhouse effect (and thus warm the earth)
10
How Global Warming Works Fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas) Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 )
11
Stop and Jot Write down what happens when you get into a car that has been sitting in the Sun for a long time on a summer day. Why does that car get so hot?
12
The Sun’s energy passes through the car’s windshield. This energy (heat) is trapped inside the car and cannot pass back through the windshield, causing the inside of the car to warm up. Example of the Greenhouse Effect

14
Global Warming vs. Climate Change GLOBAL WARMING is the increase of the Earth’s average surface temperature due to a build-up of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. CLIMATE CHANGE is a broader term that refers to long-term changes in climate, including average temperature and precipitation.
15
Effects of Global Warming 2. Increased Temperature 3. Habitat Damage and Species Affected 4. Changes in Water Supply 1. Rising Sea Level
16
What will happen to different environments? Ecosystem: a community of organisms living in the same environment in a particular climate zone (habitat=environment=biome) How will climate change impact humans/animals/plants living in different places around the world?
17
WHAT’S THE PROOF THAT GLOBAL WARMING IS TAKING PLACE?

WHY IS GLOBAL WARMING HAPPENING?
21
Burning of Fossil Fuels Pollution from coal, natural gas, and oil
22
WHEN DID GLOBAL WARMING START?
23
Global Atmospheric Concentration of CO 2
24
How is global warming measured?
25
Ice Core Data CO 2 Measurements Before 1958 - Antarctica
26
CO 2 Atmospheric Measurements CO 2 Measurements Since 1958 – Mauna Loa, Hawaii

2007 Goal: Reductions in CO 2 Per Year Billions of Metric Tons Carbon
30
2007 Reductions in CO 2 Per Year Gigaton Carbon Produce electricity efficiently Use electricity efficiently Vehicle efficiency Solar and Wind Power Biofuels Carbon capture and storage Billions of Metric Tons Carbon Our Goal
31
What’s being done now to reduce our emissions? Solar PowerWind PowerFuel-Efficiency
32
We can stop global warming!
33
WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP SOLVE THE PROBLEM?
34
Simple Things To Do Turn off your computer or the TV when you’re not using it. Take shorter showers. Heating water uses energy. Keep rooms cool by closing the blinds, shades, or curtains. Turn off the lights when you leave a room. Use compact fluorescent bulbs.
35
Be Bulb Smart—Use CFLs Incandescent Compact Fluorescent 500 lbs. of coal What’s the difference? 1,430 lbs. CO 2 pollution avoided $30 saved
36
Simple Things To Do Dress lightly when it’s hot instead of turning up the air conditioning. Or use a fan. Dress warmly when it’s cold instead of turning up the heat. Offer to help your parents keep the air filters on your AC and furnace clean. Walk short distances instead of asking for a ride in the car. Plant a tree. Recycle.
