81. The Greenhouse Effect And Greenhouse Gasses

    Extractions: Introduction The Sun Energy The Greenhouse Effect What Affects Climate? Climate Change? The greenhouse effect is useful because trapping some energy keeps the temperatures on our planet mild and suitable for living things. Without its atmosphere and the greenhouse effect, the average temperature at the surface of the Earth would be zero degrees Fahrenheit. However, too many greenhouse gases can cause the temperature to increase out of control. Such is the case on Venus where greenhouse gases are abundant and the average temperature at the surface is more than 855 degrees Fahrenheit (457 degrees Celsius).

    Extractions: Greenhouse Gases ... Government Actions Greenhouse gases are already outside of the atmosphere, but they contribute to the greenhouse effect. These gases occur naturally in the atmosphere and there are others that occur due to human activity. The natural gas found in the atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. There are so very high levels of greenhouse gases caused by human activity. The main sources of greenhouse gases from human activities have contributed are the burning of fossil fuels, the use of chlorofluocarbons found in refrigeration systems.

86. Coal Combustion - ORNL Review Vol. 26, No. 3&4, 1993
    Article discusses coal combustion which produces carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Releases from coal combustion also contain naturally occurring radioactive materials.  
    http://www.ornl.gov/info/ornlreview/rev26-34/text/colmain.html
    
    Extractions: ver the past few decades, the American public has become increasingly wary of nuclear power because of concern about radiation releases from normal plant operations, plant accidents, and nuclear waste. Except for Chernobyl and other nuclear accidents, releases have been found to be almost undetectable in comparison with natural background radiation. Another concern has been the cost of producing electricity at nuclear plants. It has increased largely for two reasons: compliance with stringent government regulations that restrict releases of radioactive substances from nuclear facilities into the environment and construction delays as a result of public opposition. Partly because of these concerns about radioactivity and the cost of containing it, the American public and electric utilities have preferred coal combustion as a power source. Today 52% of the capacity for generating electricity in the United States is fueled by coal, compared with 14.8% for nuclear energy. Although there are economic justifications for this preference, it is surprising for two reasons. First, coal combustion produces carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that are suspected to cause climatic warming, and it is a source of sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides, which are harmful to human health and may be largely responsible for acid rain. Second, although not as well known, releases from coal combustion contain naturally occurring radioactive materialsmainly, uranium and thorium.

87. Global Warming And The Climate
    Applied physicist uses a variety of data sources to take a critical view of current global warming theory by comparing the effects of greenhouse gases with those from the Sun.  
    http://www.global-warming-and-the-climate.com/
    
    Extractions: The truth may be to hard to handle The causes of global warming and climate change! There are two competing theories for the recent global warming trend. The first is based on a theory which followed the warming trend that occurred between 1975 and 1998. The second theory is based on highly correlated data going back thousands of years. Most agree that the temperature has increased about 0.6 - 0.7 Centigrade over the last century and that the level of CO2 or Carbon Dioxide a greenhouse gas has been increased in the atmosphere by 25-30% from pre industrial values. The first theory, which is the generally accepted one, is that the release of greenhouse gases from the burning of fossil fuel and from land use is responsible for the resent temperature increase. The second theory is that the sun's magnetic field and the solar wind modulate the amount of high energy cosmic radiation that the earth receives. This in turn affects low altitude cloud cover and how much water vapor there is in the atmosphere and thus regulates the climate.
