Understanding Greenhouse Gases and Climate Change Evidence

This informative text explores the primary greenhouse gases contributing to climate change, including carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. It examines key evidence of rapid climate change, such as rising sea levels, increasing global temperatures, shrinking ice sheets, and extreme weather events. The impacts on glaciers, ocean acidity, agriculture, and human health are also highlighted. Students Raji Abdul-Mui, Fumbi Cole, Oluwatobi Ogbara, Ojie Ojealaro, and Chiweike Ike-Orji, under the guidance of Teacher Nwachukwu Oluwakemi, present these critical findings.

Presentation Transcript

  1. THE GREENHOUSE GASES are • Carbon Dioxide • Methane • Nitrous Oxide • Ozone • Synthetic chemicals

  2. EVIDENCES OF CLIMATE CHANGE Also below are the evidence for rapid climate change • SEA LEVEL RISES

  3. GLOBAL TEMPERATURE RISE

  4. WARMING OCEAN

  5. SHRINKING ICESHEETS: The green land Antarctica ice sheet has reduce in mass Flowing melt water from the Greenland ice

  6. DECLINING ARTIC SEA ICE:Both the extent and thickness of Arctic sea ice has declined rapidly over the last several decades. 9

  7. GLACIAL RETREATGlaciers are retreating almost everywhere around the world — including in the Alps, Himalayas, Andes, Rockies, Alaska and Africa.10 The disappearing snowcap of Mount Kilimanjaro, from space.

  8. EXTREME EVENTSThe number of record high temperature events in the United States has been increasing, while the number of record low temperature events has been decreasing, since 1950. The U.S. has also witnessed increasing numbers of intense rainfall events.11

  9. OCEAN ACIDIFICATIONSince the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the acidity of surface ocean waters has increased by about 30 percent hence dioxide absorbed by the upper layer of the oceans is increasing by about 2 billion tons

  10. EFFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING • Weather • Ice sheets and glaciers • Sea Level • Agriculture • Plants and Animals • Human health
