Essays on Ozone

Introduction

The atmosphere by delineation refers to the gaseous composition together with other particles that surround the surface of the earth. In the atmosphere, there are gases, and the solid particles that are in suspension. Scientifically, the atmosphere is divided into four major layers. Using the ascending order, the first layer is the troposphere that rises about 10-13 km from the surface of the earth. This is closely followed by the stratosphere that rises over 50km above, them the thermosphere that rises between 80-480 km, and lastly the exosphere that goes beyond the 480 km and gradually dissipates in the ...

Abstract

Ozone layer depletion is a phenomenon in which ozone layer in the stratosphere thins out making it possible for the direct penetration of UV rays into the Earth's surface. This can lead to an array of harmful effects on human health, plants, and animals and can even trigger climate change. Chlorofluorocarbons are recognized as the primary cause accounting for 80% of ozone depletion. Though a lot of steps have been taken around the world to reduce ozone depletion, it may take about few decades more to completely heal the ozone layer due to the long standing stability of CFCs ...

Climate is changing rapidly. Credible international scientific evidence affirms the fact that the global climate is changing as a result of excessive human activities by depletion of natural resources. This global warming needs to be reduced at the earliest by implementing regulations and policies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions; otherwise the global temperature will continue to increase by approximately 3 degrees Celsius over the next century (IPCC, 2007). In my opinion, pollution is one of the biggest causes of global warming. It is not possible that the pollution has nothing to do with global warming or the depletion of ...

Climate change, or as it is more commonly known as global warming, is something that has been predominant in the world since the dawn of the industrial era. The world has been emitting all kinds of gasses that are harming and destroying the ozone layer as we know it. This destruction of the ozone layer causes temperatures to rise in the oceans and results in the melting of ice caps on both the south poles and the north poles. With such critical melting points emitting more water into the oceans, it sees a rapid change of climate throughout ...

Factories have always been seen as emitters of enormous smokes, which makes factories as major contributors of air pollution. But, aside from the air pollution, factories have been contributing to land pollution, as well as water pollution. These pollutions were mainly because of the emissions of harmful gases, mixing of toxic and hazardous chemicals on natural water resources, direct contact of harmful chemicals and wastes to surface soils (Peterson, para. 1). Moreover, although different factories produce different waste products, still, the environment is always at risk.
One of the most familiar effects of factories is how it contributes to ...

When humanity decides to use natural resources to improve the quality of life, the usual philosophical principle used to justify such act is the anthropocentrism, which is a human-centered perspective. By human centered we mean that it cares less to the welfare of the environment and gives considerable degree of consideration to human benefits. The result of the application of this principle without giving head to environmental ethics is the abuse of nature and the eventual downfall of the entire human civilization.
While, one may be prone to believe that it will be nature, alone, that will be adversely ...

Environmentalists around the world have long been bringing up the case of the depletion of the Ozone layer. Yet, it is a pity that despite the importance of the Ozone layer and seriousness of the issue, the world at large, has continued to turn a blind eye towards the problem. The Ozone layer, which is basically a gas in the lower stratosphere of the atmosphere, much like super charged oxygen. The importance of the layer lies in the fact that it protects Earth against ultraviolet rays from the Sun. The sheer seriousness of the depletion of the Ozone layer ...

Introduction

Pollutant gases tend to have an impact on both health and environment. Many nations rely on oil for energy use and advancement, hence imports every last bit of its oil and gas needs. Unfortunately, this has brought about dangerous effects upon the environment such as affecting the ozone, causes global warming, acid rain and smog. This may come about when fossil fuels are burnt to form these gases. The formation of toxic gases and their harmful impacts on human health and environment as well as biological effects by thermal pollution that is equivalent to the burning processes are being ...

Introduction

Currently, most of the cars use fuel. For the car to move from one point to combustion of fossil fuel has to occur. When fossil fuels are burnt, gases that affect the environment are released in the form of smoke (Byan, 2001). More than half of the air pollution that occurs is caused by vehicles. There has been an increase in the number of vehicles that are being used.
Among the major gases produced is carbon dioxide which is a greenhouse gas. This gas depletes the ozone layer. When the ozone layer is depleted, very strong sun rays reaches ...

Climate Changes and Ozone Depletion

The weather is changing but where and when is very unpredictable. Sometimes it is changing in slow ways but sometimes weather events are very extreme and dangerous. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) in 2001 reported on the “probability of the world being three degrees Celsius hotter by the end of the century and of a distinct possibility of it being almost six degrees hotter” (Lovelock, 2008, p. vii). This is a very scary prediction Ozone depletion is a different type of problem although Henson (2008) has said that the ozone depletion problem ...

Ozone is a gas that consists of three oxygen atoms. The ozone gas occurs in both the Earth’s lower atmosphere and the upper atmosphere. At the lower atmosphere, ozone is considered as an air pollutant as it is a main ingredient of the urban smog. It has harmful effects on the animals’ respiratory systems, and burns sensitive crops and plants. In the upper atmosphere, ozone layer is beneficial as it prevents the damaging radiations from reaching the surface of the earth. Ozone therefore shields the Earth from the harmful ultraviolet rays.
Ozone is not directly emitted into the ...

Abstract

Cars have always played an important role in the course of human development. In the past, man had a vision to introduce an invention to transport people along long distances. To turn the vision of a self-propelling automobile into reality, it took the development of a reliable combustion engine that operated on liquid fuel. In 1672, the first steam-powered vehicle as a toy for the Chinese emperor was built by Ferdinand Verbiest, a member of a Jesuit mission in China. As the automobile industry grew, so did the rate of environmental pollution. Car engines are considered to be the ...

Is it fair to restrict the growth of developing countries because of climate change?

Climatic change is a fundamental problem that is affecting developing nations, as well as developed nations of the world. However, as Nath and Behera pointed that developing nations are likely to be faced with a greater incidence of the outcome of climatic change than developed nations. This is because developed nations have the resources to deal with the outcomes of climatic changes and are already setting up mitigation strategies with respect to it.
The earth has limited carrying capacity and therefore increased population growth is likely to do more harm than good. Restricting the growth of developing nations can ...

Background

Global warming is rise in the average temperatures over the earth’s atmosphere. The sun or solar radiation is the principal source of energy for the earth. Shepardson (23) explains that when solar radiation hits the earth surface some energy is absorbed by the earth while some is reflected back to space. The earth is covered by a natural layer of atmospheric gases which absorb a certain portion of the reflected solar radiation and eventually release it back into space and most of the energy back to the earth. This causes the warming up of the earth’s surface ...

Introduction.

Atmospheric pollution can be described as the process to which chemicals, biological material or particulate matter, that are harmful to humans and other living organisms, are introduced into the atmosphere (Jacobson, 2002). Man is considered as the prime polluter of the earth’s atmosphere from his daily activities that involve release of hazardous gas into the atmosphere (Cheremisinoff, 2002). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers the following six pollutants as principle contributors to atmospheric pollution: Carbon Monoxide, Lead, Sulfur Oxides, Ozone, Nitrogen Dioxide, and Particulate Matter like Sulfates, Nitrates and carbon based molecules (Vallero, 2008).

Indoor air pollution and environmental impacts.

Introduction

Global warming refers to the gradual rise in the total temperature of the atmosphere of the earth. The rise in temperature is attributed to the effects of the greenhouse gases, which is caused by an increase in the levels of chlorofluorocarbons, carbon (IV) oxide and other pollutants. Global warming affects the climate system of the earth’s atmosphere by increasing both the terrestrial radiation and the radiation from the sun. The ozone is an essential element in the issue of global warming. The ozone absorbs the heat radiated from the sun and the surface of the earth, leading ...

Air food and shelter are the three basic necessities of life where air is the most essential elements for a human body to live and survive. Air is nothing but a mixture of oxygen, vapors, inert gases, and nitrogen which make up to 99.9 percent of it. In turn, human releases carbon dioxide which can be harmful for all the living creatures that are plants, animals and human being . There are numerous kinds of pollution. Its causes and effects have been largely discussed in many platforms. Some of the effects that are well known are development of holes in ...

The earth’s atmosphere can be defined as a series of progressively arranged “shells” or “spheres” held to its position by the force of gravity. Just to mention, the earth’s atmosphere exerts pressure to the earth’s surface which is referred to as the atmospheric pressure. In addition, the earth’s atmosphere covers a region of about 480 kilo meters around the earth’s surface after which exists the exosphere. Also, the earth’s atmosphere is further divided into heterosphere and homospere. Homospere is the layer 80 kilo meters just above the earth’s surface ...

A brief analysis of goals and challenges

ABSTRACT
The contemporary world of today is faced with several environmental problems that increasingly threaten our continued existence. At the heart of all such environmental effects is pollution, primarily carbon based emission. Realizing the need to reduce these emissions, the world nations have together decided on the transformation to a low carbon society. Power generation and transport are particularly the main sources of emission and the world therefore has to consider moving away from fossil fuels to renewable sources through technological development. In order to achieve this, the world nations have decided to reduce emissions and have also put ...

Industrial Pollution Effects on Global Warming

Introduction
Changing climate is also changing our economies, health and communities in almost every part of the world. The fast and rapid industrialization in the past increased the need of thermal power plants and other industries run by fossil fuels. They contributed in atmospheric changes drastically by emitting different pollutants including Co2, CO, SOx and NOx. They have not only threatened the environment by global warming but also give rise to acid rains. These acid rains destroyed forests that are the major sink of greenhouse gases especially carbon dioxide (Held & Soden, 2006). The variety of chemical emission including refrigerants ...

Global warming is the continuing rise in the average temperature of the earth’s climate. This increase in earth’s temperature occurs majorly in oceans, but to some degree it has also occurred on the air and sea surface. According to the intergovernmental panel on climate changes, 90% of the increase in the earth’s temperature is a result of human activities that produces greenhouse gases. Any activity that produces carbon dioxide, or any other greenhouse gas contributes to global warming on a scale that depends on the amount ...

Anthropogenic climate change is the production of greenhouse gases by human activities. These activities interfere with the chemical composition of the earth’s atmosphere by adding more harmful chemicals to the atmosphere. Examination of the polar ice cores by the scientists convince them that the increased human activity has led to an increase in the proportion of greenhouse gases. This increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has skyrocketed within the past years. Reports released by various climatic organizations confirm that the postindustrial rise in greenhouse gases does not come from natural mechanisms but from human activity. The most ...

Global warming together with climate change that comes with it has produced a heated debate as to whether or not human anthropogenic activity induced climatic shifts pose an actual threat to the Earth and humankind. Industrial activity effects in deforestation, acid rains, water pollution, and greenhouse effect are well-documented, so is their overall impact on ecology and health of species. Once global warming reaches a hazardous point, it is sure to have world ocean level go up while humankind will have to witness its most beautiful marine cities submerge.

Brief Overview

The Environmental Health Perspectives is an article by Marshall, Brauer, and Frank that was published in 2009. The main focus of the paper was on the interrelations that exist between air pollution, and physical activity, and the relation of these two factors to the design of a neighborhood or community. According to the article, the modified environment poses numerous impacts on public health, depending on the relationships among such fundamental factors as design of the neighborhood, physical activity, patterns of design, water and air pollution, in addition to safety, in transportation. The authors, therefore, conducted a study to investigate the interplay of two of the most critical factors of the above; air pollution exposure and walkability. The authors defined walkability as the measure of the conduciveness of an environment to walking. According to the study, outdoor air pollution and physical inactivity were the leading causes of impairments in health (Marshall, Brauer & Frank, 2009).
