endangered by the rise in temperatures and carbon levels. It was then that Carla‚ a carbon atom was born at the Sahara desert. At night‚ Carla and her friends went outside to watch the stars peacefully. It had never occurred to them that the night would bring a sudden kidnap. All of Carla’s friends and Carla were attached to two oxygen atoms. Unfortunately‚ Carla fainted during the kidnap so when she woke up‚ she took the surprise of no longer being carbon but carbon dioxide. Carla then turned around and

Ju Young – Arctic Ice Investigation ****************************************************************************************** Research Question: How do greenhouse gas emissions give an impact to the Arctic sea ice? Hypothesis: 1. A statement that predicts what will happen. Use the structure: ‘If…then…because…’ 2. For the ‘because’ part you need to give scientific reasoning so after you have done your research‚ state in parentheses ( ) the author of the source that helped you decide on your

AP Environmental Science 9 October 2012 My Carbon Story Hey there guys! My name is carbon. I am made up of one C‚ a carbon molecule‚ and two O‚ oxygen molecules. I have been hanging out at the deep-water bar and grill for over three hundred and eighty years. And while I was in the town of rock bottom there was a fun amusement park ride called “lift em’ up” that comes into town once every couple of million years. The best part is that the ride last for millions of years as well! Once I rose to

DEFORESTATION INTRODUCTION: Deforestation‚ clearance or clearing is the removal of a forest or stand of trees where the land is thereafter converted to a non-forest use. Examples of deforestation include conversion of forestland to farms‚ ranches‚ or urban use. The term deforestation is often misused to describe any activity where all trees in an area are removed. However in temperate climates‚ the removal of all trees in an area in conformance with sustainable forestry practices—is correctly

emissions. It has been claimed that an Australian carbon tax will have no significant impact on the level of greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere. This claim has been made on two bases. Firstly that it is unlikely to succeed in significantly reducing Australian greenhouse gas emissions and secondly‚ that even if these emissions were to stop completely this would have no useful effect on world greenhouse gas emission rates. Critics of a carbon tax for Australia argue that it will damage our economy

Each tablet contains aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid)‚ citric acid‚ and sodium bicarbonate. As the tablet dissolves in water‚ the bicarbonate ions in the tablet react with the hydrogen ions from the acids that are also contained in the tablet. The carbon dioxide gas produced by the reaction is what causes the bubbling that can be observed. HCO3- (aq) + H+ (aq) → H2O (l) + CO2 (g) In this investigation‚ you will design two experiments which will compare two different factors that may affect the

Is deforestation the cause of climate change? A. The forest can provide many different products. 1. Consumers use these products everyday ● Cost of products increasing 2. Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere ● Most trees hold in the carbon dioxide 3. Changes in the ecosystem ● loss of trees mean higher risk of disasters. II. Rain forest are slowly vanishing B. “Slash and Burn” process. 1. Many farmers are following

Carbon Nanofibers Carbon nanofibers can simply be known as nanostructures with bonded carbon atoms that has a molecule composed entirely of carbon in shape of hollow sphere‚ ellipsoid or tube. The layers are usually wrapped up to form carbon nanotubes. Nanotubes are usually constructed with length-to-diameter ratio of up to 132‚000‚000:1. Basically‚ carbon nanofibers can be used very commonly in future as the technology for it is really taking its shape. It can be used for sensors‚ bone growth‚
