In the article, "Causes and Effects of Industrial Pollution," the author talks about how industries contaminate the drinking water, fresh air and the soil. ... Factories use a large amount of water to mix with chemicals for use in manufacturing, but they release that water in rivers or on land. ...
The impact on atmospheric water vapor is a prime example. As the earth's surface heats (particularly ocean surfaces), the 1990 IPCC models predicted higher concentrations of atmospheric water vapor due to surface water evaporation. Because water vapor is also a natural greenhouse gas (because it has the effect of deflecting infrared heat back to the earth's surface), higher concentrations of atmospheric water vapor have a compounding effect on rising surface temperatures. ... The IPCC models assume that the ambient air temperature over the ocean is the same as the surface sea water t...
As the earth gets warmer, there will be a rise in the average water level of the oceans. ... As water is heated, it expands, or increases in volume. ... All together, glaciers contain about seventy-five percent of the available fresh water of the earth. ...
