Modern civilization depends largely on energy. Without it, our lives would be reduced to the level of a caveman\'s. We would have nothing to power the equipment we rely on to get on with our daily lives. Life would in a way come to a standstill without energy. Without wood, we would not even be able...

We hear about acid rain all the time in the news, and it is essential to the earth\'s ecosystem. In simple terms, acid rain is rain that is more acidic than normal. All objects in nature have a certain acidity level, but acid rain has too much acid in it. Acid rain is a complicated problem caused by...
During the course of the twentieth century, many environmental scientists have become increasingly confident that the average global temperature has elevated. Although global warming is still a highly controversial theory, the facts have compelled scientists, politicians, and the environmentally-con...
Every year in the world there are many meteorological phenomenons, and these phenomenons destroy whatever they have in their way. I\'m talking about hurricanes, tornadoes, thunderstorms, and earthquakes which are the main causes of disasters. All of these phenomenons have been increasing and have be...
Acid rain is a serious problem with disastrous effects. Each day this serious problem increases, many people believe that this issue is too small to deal with right now this issue should be met head on and solved before it is too late. In the following paragraphs I will be discussing the impact ha...
Global warming is one of the foremost problems facing our planet today. As pollution rises the ozone layer breaks down, and as the temperatures go on a constant rise glaciers and ice-caps melt. Many people have their doubts about the global warming "theory", however proof of this "t...
In the past century, one of the greatest threats to North America\'s aquatic ecosystem has been the widespread acidification of hundreds of thousands of waterways. Acid rain has effected plant and animal life within aquatic ecosystems, as well as microbiologic activity by affecting the rates of dec...
IntroductionThe environment of planet earth is heavily dependent on a stable climate. The stability of this climate has been continually compromised since the beginning of the industrial revolution. Poor pollution controls and the ever-increasing human industrial activity are causing the greenhouse ...
Acid Rain The concept of acid rain is often misunderstood by the vast majority of the world, however, most realize that it is a problem. The burning of fossil fuels has released pollutants into our earth's atmosphere. Once airborne, the pollutants form acidic compounds by combining with w...
Are alternative fuels working? When attending school to be certified to fix state emission failures, instructors tell stories about emission subjects. One in particular that comes to mind is about a couple that tried to end their lives. The instructor showed a paper clipping, from what paper I d...
Global Warming: Society's Warning I feel strongly that global warming is affecting my community because it's effects reach across every town in every country across the entire planet. Global warming is sometimes referred to as the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse eff...
There are many problems concerning the environment. Pollution, destruction of the rainforests, and the consumption of all of our planet\'s natural resources are just a few. None of these issues quite compare to the problem of global warming. Global warming is a problem that affects not only some peo...
Acid rain is perhaps the most well known and recognizable form of pollution that is affecting the world today. Acidity is measured using a pH scale, with 7 being neutral. So anything below 7 is considered to be acidic, but as far as acid rain goes, the baseline for identifying acid rain is genera...
What is global warming, and how is it affecting the Earth and its inhabitants? Global Warming is sometimes referred to as the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is the absorption of energy radiated from the Earth\'s surface by carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere, causing the atmos...
When the thought of acid rain comes to mind, a thought of burning acid falling from the sky and destroying everything in sight, and as weird as this sounds it is not that far from the truth. With the population of the world rising, the need for energy increases. When more energy is needed more sulfu...
