SCI/275 August 25‚ 2013 Professor Ed Mata Atmospheric Issues In today’s society there is much pollution that can cause an individual to become very sick or death can occur from the many atmospheric issues such as ozone depletion in our society. There are many things that contribute to ozone depletion in our atmosphere as well as indoor pollution such as radon which can cause certain cancers and certain deaths. There is also a lot of indoor air pollution which can cause the same issues to an individual’s

is one of the greenhouse gases. 4. Ozone is one of the greenhouse gases. 5. Methane is one of the greenhouse gases. 6. Chlorofluorocarbon is one of the greenhouse gases. B. There are 6 principal pollutants that contribute to the formation of the greenhouse gas. 1. Carbon Monoxide is one of the principal pollutants. 2. Lead is one of the principal pollutants. 3. Nitrogen Dioxide is one of the principal pollutants. 4. Ozone is one of the principal pollutants.

Exersise 1: The World Health Organization is a coordinating health authority within the United Nations that focuses on a variety of global health issues that affect people. People are a valuable resource to the world today. These issues can be anything from research agendas‚ setting norms and standards‚ and assessing health trends (World Health Organization). The World Health Organization is committed to protecting global human populations from preventable death and diseases (World Health Organization)

Air Pollution in California In the 1940’s California was supporting a population of seven million people and contained 2.8 million registered vehicles. Within the next twenty years the population more than doubled to reach 16 million while the number of registered vehicles all but tripled increasing to eight million. This has been a common trend in California’s documented history from the early twentieth century to today. There have been many historical and environmental factors that have assisted

layer of protection called “ozone”. This ozone‚ is made from oxygen. Normally‚ molecules of oxygen in the atmosphere have two atoms of oxygen; however; the ozone’s molecules have three atoms of oxygen! Absorbing the ultraviolet light‚ the ozone made protects us. Although the ozone may protect us‚ it it poisonous. Thankfully it has been placed ten miles above the earth’s surface‚ where it can absorb and filter out light without messing the earth up. So‚ overall‚ the ozone is perfect. It keeps out the

every year. C02 is produced by many sources and is the gas responsible for Global warming and alarming changes in our climate. As we use our resources‚ the negative impact on our environment increases. The more C02 emitted in the air the more our ozone layer is affected. C02 is a natural gas and is always being emitted and absorbed to and from the air. There is a certain amount of carbon on the earth. But it’s constantly in a series of exchanges. When a tree goes into photosynthesis‚ it absorbs

Antarctica can be seen as the world’s largest laboratory. Science is one of the most important reasons as to why we venture into this barren desert‚ and we have made and continue to make important scientific discoveries in the Antarctic. We have made discoveries like: How the atmosphere and the oceans ‘work’ and how they are linked‚ how much Antarctica has moved etc. Old explorers like made the first journeys across the vast continent and became ingrained into history books for doing so.
