Environment Geology

   

    Today we watched two videos about Environment Geology. The first video was only three minutes but the teacher made it last for half of the class I was amazed. The video was talked about global warming and climate changes. I learned that 1.2 to 1.4 degrees of earths temp rises and that global warming might be cause by us. We use many fossil fuels everyday like coal, gases, and oil which pollutes the air, which is very bad for our environment and earth. The video also talked about the greenhouse effect which they all give off carbon dioxide and that lets the green effect happen. The last thing in the video was that in thirty years the Artic sea ice has degrees by ten percent and the thing is that the ice wont won’t freeze again because of the weather that has been going on.

       The second video kind of talked about the same thing but was more recent and explained more. It talked about what is in fossil fuel and how much. Fossil fuel contains Carbon dioxide 82%, Methane 10%, Nitrous Oxide 5%, and lastly Fluorinated Gases 3%. The video also talked about weather of the earth. I found out that ten of the last 16 years has been the hottest years and that for every year for the last seven years 4 billion tons of ice melted. This is so much of ice that has melted and causes many floods and the ocean has risen six inches too. I learned so much today in class and I hope I learn more awesome things tomorrow.
