This phenomenon has accentuated the greenhouse effect. It is estimated that the
average global temperature increased more than 0.6 ° C between the late
nineteenth century and 2000. The consequences are beginning to be felt. There
are changes in the global distribution of rainfall: there are regions where rain is
increasing and others decreasing. This leads, among other things, new sites of
fauna and flora and modification of ecosystems
Due to the intensive use of these fuels, there have been sensitive increases in the
amounts of nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere, with
the aggravating circumstance that other human activities such as deforestation,
have limited regenerative capacity of the atmosphere to remove carbon dioxide.
It is the natural warming. Greenhouse gases retain some of the heat of the sun and
maintain a suitable temperature for life.
It is the increase in the average temperature of the atmosphere. It is due to the
emission of greenhouse gases from human activities
The 1-solar energy through the atmosphere. Part of it is absorbed by the surface
and another is reflected
The 1-fuel combustion, deforestation, livestock, etc. increase the amount of
greenhouse gases in the atmosphere
Ozone: is one of the greenhouse gases, and therefore normally retains part of the
radiation reflected
Ozone: the weakening of its layer allows to reach ultraviolet rays harmful to
humans
El aumento de la temperatura media de la atmósfera terrestre y de los océanos es
lo que se denomina calentamiento global. La causa principal se vincula con un
incremento de las emisiones de dióxido de carbono por parte de los países
industrializados durante los últimos 200 años.
