Predicting of The Climate Change

Greenhouse gases emissions are a variety of gaseous compounds that are air pollutants which include, but not limited to; carbon dioxide and chlorofluorocarbons (Rob Coppock, 2004). These gases act as a “lid” trapping energy from the sun and, preventing the heat from going back out into space so that the earth can cool. Over the past century, humans have directly or indirectly contributed the greenhouse effect through many of their economic and other activities for example, management actions such as, agriculture practices and fire suppression. Other indirect contributions include fertilization, nitrogen deposition, and acid deposition among others (United States, General Accounting Office, 2013).

Scientists believe since the temperature of the earth has increased by one Fahrenheit over the last one hundred years; these increases in temperatures could be made worse by more gases into the atmosphere. In this case, scientists expect increase in the occurrence of various weather hazards such as, heat waves, droughts, hurricanes, forest fires and floods which they argue are already havin...
