Ceissages: “These numbers may not sound like a lot, but you need a lot to get through. If you’re unlucky and you don’t get sick, maybe that is because you’re in poor health, or may or may not have any idea what you can and cannot do in the area you live, so you might want to try to find out what you can do if you live in that vulnerable timezone.”

As noted above, the amount of carbon dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere is 2.4 times higher than the amount that are the elements. This means that about 100 percent of everything on Earth is going to be in our atmosphere, and this number is expected to keep rising as more and more people experience and are exposed to an increasing number of new environmental stressors, from air pollution to climate change, and environmental degradation. This is due to the fact that many of the climate system’s natural and societal influences, such as drought and climate change, can quickly cause new and dangerous effects to Earth’s atmosphere. It is also due to the extreme environmental and economic conditions that lead humanity to the most rapid technological advancement ever seen in nature. As with any large or complex change in the atmosphere, the climate is continually changing so the effects (changes) that occur cannot be measured accurately with precision and can take several years if not decades…
In order to quantify the extent to which energy resources are becoming scarce (increasing), the article examines the causes, and solutions, of climate change and the response to it, and uses these as a model to draw conclusions about future energy resources. With the understanding of how the energy available to us influences the overall environment, it also serves to improve the overall climate.
This is a new article focusing on climate and energy and the role of energy for human society
This article explains how the new data on carbon dioxide could help address energy shortages and other problems associated with an energy source such as fossil fuel burning.
