Seminar paper from the year 2004 in the subject Environmental Sciences, printed single-sided, grade: 1,7, University of Applied Sciences Constanze, course: Environmental Economics, 27 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: The Earth has a natural temperature control system. The greenhouse gases belong to this system. Following we can see the main greenhouse gases:Water vapor: It is a kind of gaseous water (individual water molecules) in the atmosphere.Carbon dioxide (CO2): This gas gets into the atmosphere when solid waste, fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, and coal), and wood or wood products are burned. Nitrous oxide (N2O): It is emitted during agricultural and industrial activities, as well as during combustion of solid waste and fossil fuels. The global climate consists of the atmosphere/earth/ocean/ice/land system.The result of a change in this system is climate change.One sign for climate change is the rise of the temperature.There are natural forces or human activities which can cause climate change. Following I will describe the human activities which are causing the climate change.
