The carbon that makes up fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas, was...

once removed from the atmosphere

once in a factory or burned in an engine

Burning fossil fuels can cause

acid rain, global warming, air pollution

water pollution, air pollution, land pollution

carbon cycling, water cycling, nitrogen cycling

sequestration of excess carbon dioxide

What is wrong with introducing non-native species to an area?

they can take over the habitat of natural species

they hunt and eat the natural species

they are too large to survive in the area

nothing, they help by adding new prey

The reason we don't run out of resources like carbon, oxygen, and water is because

they are cycled through ecosystems

there is plenty available on Earth

we have enough now, but we will run out in the future

they bond with each other to create more

Global warming has been linked to a decrease in

the rate of carbon dioxide production

Deforestation by burning has been described as a "double whammy" to the environment, meaning it has 2 negative impacts. Why is this description accurate?

Forest burning releases CO 2 while decreasing oxygen, which disrupts cycles

Deforestation reduces the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere, which depletes the ozone layer

Forest clearing is often followed by land development, which often leads to increased noise pollution

Deforestation increases the number of plant and animal species by destroying habitat

Approximately 75 percent of the Earth's surface is covered in water. So why is water considered such a precious resource?

Only a small fraction of the Earth's water is freshwater available for drinking and irrigation

The greenhouse effect is causing most of the world's freshwater to be trapped in the atmosphere

Each year, more freshwater is being trapped in icecaps located at the North and South Poles

Global warming caused by greenhouse gas emissions will likely cause Earth's oceans to evaporate

What is an effect of global warming?

melting glaciers and rising sea levels

Solutions for limiting global warming and climate change include...

finding clean, renewable sources of energy.

removing carbon from fossil fuel emissions.

Which of the following is the best conclusion that can be made from this graph?

atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have increased steadily since 1960

atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have been decreasing since 1960

Hawaii has a lot of carbon dioxide

humans have been working hard to decrease carbon dioxide levels

What human activities destroy habitats?

Creating housing and agriculture

Conservation efforts and wildlife protection

Increased use of renewable energy sources

What is an endangered species?

A species that is threatened by extinction

A species that is increasing in number

A species that is found in all continents
