Climate change made 2019 European heat wave worse

According to an international team of scientists climate change was responsible for the heat wave that spanned Europe in June 2019.  Climate change made this heat wave five times more likely than normal and temperatures reached 114.6 degrees Fahrenheit in France which is a record breaking temperature.  This is important because it shows how global warming could be a real thing affecting humans on Earth.  If we do not change at least something in the way we live these temperatures could continue to increase and effect not only humans but also all other living creatures on Earth.

    Unfortunately, global warming is affecting all of planet Earth and yet humans still ignore it. I feel that if leaders of the large world powers would come together and make an initiative that maybe we could at least slow down the affects of global warming.

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
