This article is also interesting because it is saying that climate change is all done by people. I think climate change is a problem created by people.
President Trump based a large part of his campaign in siding with the Republican Party's opinion that climate change and global warming is either not as big or a threat to our planet as it comes off as, or that is does not exist at all. Clearly during election season, he had to strictly side with his party's ideals in order to secure votes that would present him with the presidential candidacy. But, now that he has won office, he is saying that global warming does exist, and is threat to our society due to environmentally harmful actions resulting from humans. If he is changing his stance on the issue, why does he continue to have Scott Pruitt, a known global warming denier, sit as the head of the EPA and why does he continue to withdraw climate policies set in place by the Obama administration (an administration that outwardly supported the findings of climate change and set in place regulations and policies to lessen the impact of human activities on the environment)? Is recognizing the issue and continuing to do nothing about it because of the impact climate change policies would have on big businesses in America? I am interested to see what the President puts forward on this matter.
Since 1991, the oceans have absorbed 150 times in heat energy than energy humans produce as electricity annually. This study shows that Earth's oceans are more sensitive to fossil-fuel emmissions than previously thought.
A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm
According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
WHOA! Big deal, considering what has been presented thus far by the Trump administration. Interesting.
