WARMING
What is Global Warming?

of Earth’s atmosphere
-More recently, the temperatures
have been rising, causing more
dangers for people, animals and
our environment

Now the question : ‘ What causes Global Warming?


Greenhouse gases
These gases are lighter
than air, so they rise up
to the outer limits of the
earth‘s atmosphere and
settle up there, making
an impenetrable barrier
that traps heat from
escaping out into the
space, and keeping it
within our environment,
and increases the
temperature
Agriculture
Agriculture produces large amount of
methane and nitrous oxide worldwide
There are numerous
agricultural sources
of greenhouse
gases. Livestock
grazing, waste
management and
digestive gases
contribute half of
the emissions
produced by
agriculture.
Deforestation

The planet cuts and burns nearly 34 million acres of trees


each year, including millions of acres of rainforest. Trees and
plants take up the carbon dioxide and provide us pure, clean,
breathable oxygen as a free by product of the plant life cycle.
