Which of the following best describes the impact that burning of fossil fuels has on Earth's Climate?

• the burning of fossil fuels creates heat and raises the temperatures on Earth

• the burning of fossil fuels moves Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere, enhancing the greenhouse effect and raising temperatures on Earth

• the burning of fossil fuels increases the amount of solar radiation the Earth receives, raising temperatures on Earth

Which of the following best describes the impact that cement production has on Earth's Climate?

• cement production has high fuel requirements and chemical reactions that emit Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere, raising Earth's temperatures

• cement production removes Oxygen from the air over time, raising Earth's temperatures

• cement production releases large amounts of solar radiation, raising Earth's temperatures

Which of the following best describes the impact that agricultural activities have on Earth's Climate?

• A. Agricultural practices such as rice production and raising of livestock contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, raising Earth's temperatures

• B. Land change for agricultural use contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, raising Earth's temperatures

• C. BOTH A and B

Which of the following best describes the impact that solar radiation has on Earth's Climate?9. Which of the following best describes the impact that solar radiation has on Earth's Climate?

• In Winter we receive less solar radiation and in Summer we receive more, raising or lowering Earth's temperatures accordingly

• The amount of solar radiation that Earth receives is constant and never changes, therefore it has no impact on global climate change

• At different times Earth receives more or less solar radiation, raising or lowering Earth's temperatures accordingly

Which of the following best describes the impact that volcanic activity has on Earth's Climate?

• Volcanic activity has very little impact on Global Climate Change, in-fact volcanoes release less than a percent of the carbon dioxide released by human activities

• Volcanic Activity is responsible for 100 billion tons of Carbon Dioxide entering Earth's atmosphere each year, it is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases

• Volcanic Activity is the second largest emitter of greenhouse gases, behind Agricultural Activities
