  1. Saving The Planet By: Carlos P.

  2. What is Global Warming? • I believe that global warming is caused by the toxic fumes of smokers, car exhausts, factories and hair sprays.

  3. Causes of Global Warming • Smoke • is mainly CO2 • thickens ozone layer

  4. Cause of Global Warming • Hair spray • sends chemicals into the air • greenhouse gas

  5. Cause of Global Warming • Deforestation • wont be able to capture any CO2 increasing earths heat. • earth loses more oxygen

  6. What Can We Do To Make It Better? • 1.) Turn off all unused electrical objects • 2.) Car pool • 3.) Recycle • 4.) Use city transportation

  7. What Do Hurricanes Have to Do with Global Warming? • The hurricanes become stronger as the water is warmer. Since global warming causes the water to become warmer, the hurricane will go over the warmth picking up energy and power.

  8. Hurricane Katrina • It was a Category 5 hurricane making it a very devastating and dangerous storm. • the warmth of the water gave the storm its energy and power.

  9. What Happened After the Hurricane? • The city over flooded and destroyed the entire city of New Orleans causing much death and sorrow 

  10. What is Energy? • Energy is the ability to do work. • One way we use energy everyday is by cooking and powering our cities with electricity. • Reusable fuel would be air, water and sunlight because they never run out…but non-reusable fuel would be fossil fuel and nuclear. This is because fossils are only made one way and that way takes millions of years, and atoms can only be split once.

  11. Fossil Fuel • Takes millions of years to make and is created by decomposed and fossilized dinosaurs and prehistoric animals • One benefit of this fuel is that it gives us electricity • It affects our environment by giving off a harmful gas call Co2

  12. Hydropower • The water cycle • It will not pollute our Ozone layer which is a benefit • Gives us energy substituting electricity which will keep our earth in a better condition.

  13. Wind Power • The wind blows the windmill causing it to spin giving us energy to power our cities and homes. • Just as the hydro energy it will not pollute our ozone layer. • Also hydro power substitutes electricity making our earth more green.

  14. What is Recycling? • Recycling: reusing and reducing recyclable material usually thrown away. • The 3 R’s: Reduce, Reuse and recycle • Paper, plastic, glass, cardboard and scrap metal can all be recycled.

  15. Why Should We Recycle? • We should recycle to help the earth and keep it more clean. • Save money.

  16. How Do We Recycle? • We recycle by: • buying stuff at the store • Finish using it and then putting it in the recycling bin • Garbage truck picks up bins • Then the bins are brought to the factory being burned and crushed • After they are burned or crushed they are turn into other recyclable material starting the process over
