    and that may result from the greenhouse effect. Thus there is no indication that the warming between “1975-1998” and “1975 to 2009” is unnatural‚ unusual and/or caused by anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions. Global Warming may have started in 1975‚ but there is no observable evidence of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emission based global warming began in 1975. Most climate scientists agree the main cause of the current global warming trend is human expansion of the “greenhouse effect” warming that

    less carbon dioxide being removed from the air. Increases of green house gases trap more heat from the sun within the Earth’s atmosphere. When this happens‚ the Earth tends to stay warm. This causes the ice caps and glaciers to melt and the sea levels to rise. This will cause more storms‚ flood‚ and droughts and plants‚ people and animals will die. The Earth’s temperature is increasing due to the greenhouse gases being released. For example‚ when we burn coal and oil‚ we release carbon dioxide‚ methane

    Oxygen – Carbon dioxide Cycle The Carbon Dioxide- Oxygen Cycle relates to the relationship between Carbon Dioxide [CO2] breathing plants and Oxygen [O2] breathing life forms. All oxygen-breathing life forms take in Oxygen and exhale CO2. Plants take in the CO2 and use it in their photosynthesis process and in turn give off oxygen. The Carbon Dioxide-Oxygen Cycle is a continuously occurring process whereby animals inhale Oxygen and then exhale carbon dioxide‚ and plants use the CO2 and "exhale"

    oxygen‚ atmosphere‚ or food. We inhale air unconsciously every day. By taking in air‚ we absorb oxygen and discharge carbon dioxide in the process of generating energy. It is a physiological phenomenon‚ called respiration. Most organisms on earth breathe. Then‚ how is oxygen generated and where does carbon dioxide go? The answer to this is plants. When we breath out carbon dioxide the photosynthetic organisms (plants) "breath" in the CO2 and give off our much needed air. In general if the plants

    Gas exchange or respiration in humans is the means by which getting oxygen from air into the blood and carbon dioxide out of the blood into the air. Humans must exchange these gases with the environment because oxygen is essential for cells‚ which use this vital substance to release the energy needed for cellular activities. In addition to supplying oxygen‚ carbon dioxide needs to be removed in order to prevent the buildup of this waste product in the body tissues. As breathing is the act or process
