Greenhouse effect and its impact

What are the main causes of the greenhouse effect?

• Plastic recycling

• Burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, intensive agriculture, and industrialization.

• Use of renewable energies

• Increase in biodiversity

What consequences does global warming have on the oceans?

• Decrease in water temperature

• Rising sea levels, acidification, changes in currents and marine ecosystems.

• Stabilization of terrestrial ecosystems

• Increase in marine biodiversity

Mention three greenhouse gases.

• oxygen

• hydrogen

• nitrogen

• carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide

How does global warming affect climate patterns?

• Global warming reduces global temperature.

• Global warming improves air quality.

• Global warming alters climate patterns, causing changes in temperature, precipitation, and extreme weather events.

• Global warming does not affect climate patterns.

What role do forests play in reducing greenhouse gases?

• Forests have no impact on the climate.

• Forests reduce greenhouse gases by absorbing CO2 and storing carbon.

• Forests are a source of CO2.

• Forests increase global temperature.

What are the consequences of glacier melting?

• Increased biodiversity

• Rising sea levels, alteration of ecosystems, and release of greenhouse gases.

• Decrease in global temperature

• Increased volcanic activity

What impact does global warming have on agriculture?

• Global warming does not affect agriculture.

• Global warming improves agricultural production.

• Global warming has a negative impact on agriculture, affecting production and food security.

• Global warming only benefits certain crops.

How do vehicles contribute to the greenhouse effect?

• Vehicles contribute to the greenhouse effect by emitting gases such as CO2 and NOx that trap heat in the atmosphere.

• Vehicles only produce water vapor which does not affect the climate.

• Vehicles are responsible for acid rain, not the greenhouse effect.

• Vehicles generate solar energy that reduces the greenhouse effect.

Why is biodiversity important in the context of climate change?

• Biodiversity is crucial for the resilience of ecosystems against climate change.

• Biodiversity is only important for agriculture.

• Biodiversity has no impact on climate change.

• Biodiversity is irrelevant to human health.

What relationship exists between deforestation and the greenhouse effect?

• Deforestation has no impact on the greenhouse effect.

• Deforestation increases the greenhouse effect by reducing CO2 absorption by trees.

• Deforestation decreases the greenhouse effect by increasing the number of trees.

• The greenhouse effect causes deforestation by increasing temperatures.
