Which two are likely to result from climate change?
increase in surface temperatures
reduction in greenhouse gases
rise in ocean levels
decrease in air pollution
Why are forests important in reducing climate change? Trees ____
use Carbon Dioxide to make food & release oxygen into the atmoshpere
provide building materials
are an important food source
reflect all sunlight away from the Earth
Which best explains how livestock farming contributes to global warming ? Animals __________

The graph shows changes in carbon dioxide
(CO2) concentrations and surface temperatures
on Earth from the years 1880 to 2000.
Why do carbon dioxide concentrations and
surface temperatures show the relationship seen
in the graph?
because lower carbon dioxide levels mean more
heat is retained in Earth's atmosphere
because higher carbon dioxide levels mean
more heat is retained in Earth's atmosphere
because lower carbon dioxide levels mean less
heat is retained in Earth's atmosphere
because higher carbon dioxide levels mean less
heat is retained in Earth's atmosphere
What is climate change?
A belief or opinion
a long-term change in the earth's climate, especially a change due to the increase in the average atmospheric temperature.
This is a natural fuel such as coal, oil, or gas, formed in the geological past from the remains of living organisms.
wind fuel
nuclear fuel
fossil fuels
dinosaur fuels
