Carbon Emissions

Emissions of carbon dioxide, also known as CO2 emissions are just molecules of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Usually, the reason why people talk about them, so that when the carbon dioxide from the air in large quantities, can contribute to global warming. This excess carbon dioxide can fall infrared radiation from the sun in Earth's atmosphere, which is then converted into heat. This energy heats the planet's oceans and may lead to climate change.
The burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil is an important source of carbon. Deforestation is also a factor, for two reasons. First, the burning of forests leads to more CO2 emissions and also reduce the number of leaves and plants means less carbon dioxide into oxygen through photosynthesis.

One popular way that people try to offset emissions of carbon dioxide created by additional switching, cooking and other uses of electricity from fossil fuels, is buying shares, also called carbon offsets. This means that for every ton of carbon per person applies, he or she is financially supporting the work that emissions of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere reduces the same amount. These funds go to tree planting initiative or the company, which uses wind or hydro.
To find out how much carbon a person may need a balance, you can calculate your individual carbon footprint, which is a number based on non-fossil energy is used for your home, car and other vehicles to use the power . Depending on the selected computer's carbon footprint can also be considered the purchase of goods such as food and clothing locally produced and come from sustainable sources. It can be difficult for the carbon footprint that is 100 percent accurate calculation, many people decide to compensate, to ensure adequate compensation.

There is some dispute is the man of the carbon emissions blamed for global warming. Some of these people believe the earth is warming, only the result of natural processes. This argument aside, I can say with certainty that the CO2 gas is not only affect the Earth's temperature. Other gases, which could have negative impact on the Earth's climate is methane, nitrous oxide, ozone and water vapor. Along with carbon dioxide, a substance known as greenhouse
