Deadly weather may rise 50 percent from now to 2100

Over the past few years, extreme weather conditions have been on the rise including intense droughts, record breaking wildfires, and servere hurricanes. This is due to global warming, which is disrupting the jet stream, a flow of air in the atmosphere. Increased human carbon emissions and other sources of pollution can be to blame for this. A recent study, however, has shown that deadly natural disasters will be on the rise by and average of 50% by 2100, sometimes reaching 300%. I believe that this is an important issue and the world should attempt to work together to do something about global warming, if this continues, our world will soon be inevitable to humans.

    Very interesting that the population affects the climate/weather so drastically.

Dual-fuel vehicles

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

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     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
