Is Global Warming Caused by man?

Scientists have evidence such as pollution and man-made green house gases have started tearing away the atmosphere. Natural green house gases have less water vapor and harmful effects on the environment.
One natural cause of global warming is the emission of methane from the artic tundra and wetlands.

Global Warming

5 Causes of GLOBAL WARMING
1. Nitrous Oxide.
2. City Gridlock.
3. Extra production of methane.
4. Deforestation.
5. Carbon Dioxide emitting from cars.

5 Things to prevent GLOBAL WARMING
1. Use less heat and AC.
2. Plant a tree.
3. Less driving.
4. Conserve electricity.
5. Change a lightbulb.

"Properties"

Physical Properties-Aspect of object or substance measured without changing its identity.
Examples: Density, Boiling Point, Color, Mass and Strength.

Chemical Properties-Any quality that can be established only by changing a substance's chemical identity.
Examples: Flamability, Toxicty, pH balance, Heat of Combustion and Electronegativity.

Wave Length- The distance between repeating units of a propagating wave of a given frequency.

Wave Frequency- Refers to how many waves are made per time interval.

Types of waves

A transverse wave is when matter in the medium moves back and forth at right angles.
Example: A water wave travels horizontally as the water moves vertically up and down.
A compressional wave is when matter in the medium moves back and forth along the same direction that the wave travels.
Example:Coiled spring toy.
