Greenhouse gases= http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/energyexplained/index.cfm?page=enviorment_about_ghg= is increasing the concentration of [|greenhouse gases] in the atmosphere rate that has probably never been seen before in the planet's history.

Hydrological cycle= http://ww2010.atmos.uiuc.edu/(Gh)/guides/mtr/hyd/smry.rxml= The hydrologic cycle begins with the [|evaporation] of water from the surface of the ocean. As moist air is lifted, it cools and water vapor [|condenses] to form clouds. Moisture is [|transported] around the globe until it returns to the surface as [|precipitation]. Once the water reaches the ground, one of two processes may occur; 1) some of the water may evaporate back into the atmosphere or 2) the water may penetrate the surface and become [|groundwater].

Global Warming rain fall= http://epa.gov/climatechange/kids/gw.html= A warmer Earth may lead to changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. When scientists talk about the issue of climate change, their concern is about global warming caused by human activities.

=activity 4= Pesticides= is a substance or mixture of s Products used most often are insecticides and disinfectants. substances used to kill a pest What can be done to reduce the amount of these pollutants indoors? Use strictly according to manufacturer's directions.

Radon=the health hazard with a simple solution
 * 1) What causes these pollutants? It comes from the natural decay of uranium that is found in nearly all soils.
 * 2) What health effects are caused by these pollutants? Cancer causing natural radioactive gas that you can’t see or smell.
 * 3) What can be done to reduce the amount of these pollutants indoors? A vent pipe system and fan, which pulls radon from beneath the house and vents it to the outside.

Reparable Particles= particles from fire places wood stoves and kerosene heaters What health effects are caused by these pollutants? Eye, nose, and throat irritation; respiratory infections and bronchitis; lung cancer.
 * 1) What causes these pollutants? Fireplaces, wood stoves, and kerosene heaters
