Climate Change and Greenhouse Quiz

What are the primary causes of global warming?

• Increase in solar flares

• The primary causes of global warming are the increase in greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, as well as deforestation and burning of fossil fuels.

• Alien invasion

• Eating too much ice cream

How does climate change impact ecosystems?

• Climate change leads to increased biodiversity within ecosystems

• Climate change only affects individual species within ecosystems

• Climate change has no impact on ecosystems

• Climate change can lead to habitat loss, species extinction, and disruption of food chains within ecosystems.

Which of the following is a renewable energy source?

• Coal

• Natural gas

• Nuclear power

• Solar power

What are some strategies to reduce carbon footprint?

• Leaving all lights and electronics on 24/7

• Some strategies to reduce carbon footprint include using renewable energy, reducing energy consumption, using public transportation or carpooling, planting trees, and supporting sustainable businesses.

• Supporting industries with high carbon emissions

• Driving alone in a gas-guzzling car

How do greenhouse gases affect temperature?

• Greenhouse gases cool the Earth's atmosphere, leading to a decrease in temperature.

• Greenhouse gases cause extreme temperature fluctuations.

• Greenhouse gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to an increase in temperature.

• Greenhouse gases have no effect on temperature.

What is the main greenhouse gas responsible for global warming?

• Nitrogen (N2)

• Methane (CH4)

• Oxygen (O2)

• Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Which human activity contributes the most to greenhouse gas emissions?

• The human activity that contributes the most to greenhouse gas emissions is the burning of fossil fuels for energy and transportation.

• Using solar energy

• Planting trees

• Eating meat

What is the main impact of climate change on oceans?

• Expansion of coral reefs

• The main impact of climate change on oceans is ocean acidification, rising sea levels, and changes in ocean currents and temperatures.

• Decrease in water pollution

• Increase in fish population

Which of the following is a non-renewable energy source?

• Hydropower

• Coal

• Solar power

• Wind energy

What is the most effective way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

• Cut down more trees to reduce carbon dioxide absorption

• The most effective way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is to transition to renewable energy sources, improve energy efficiency, and implement policies to limit carbon emissions.

• Increase the use of coal and oil

• Ignore the issue and continue with current practices
