1. Define loss of biodiversit
The term biodiversity refers to the variety of life on Earth at all its levels, from genes to
ecosystems, and the ecological and evolutionary processes that sustain it. Biodiversity
includes not only species we consider rare, threatened, or endangered, but every living thing
— even organisms we still know little about, such as microbes, fungi, and invertebrates.
Biodiversity is important everywhere; species and habitats in your area as well as those in
distant lands all play a role in maintaining healthy ecosystems.
There are a few main causes which contribute to the loss of biodiversity. Here is a list of a
few causes

'as emissions are any gaseous material released, either naturally or artificially, into the
atmosphere. These gas emissions e)ist in a variety of forms most notably water vapor,
carbon dio)ide, methane, nitrous o)ide and o"one. Each of these substances, while already
e)isting in the atmosphere at certain levels, can be increased through various means, such as
the burning of fossil fuels or the eruption of a volcano. The effects of these gas emissions
come in the form of the greenhouse effect. Each of these gases absorb radiation in the
atmosphere, increasing the temperature of the Earth.
>ifferent gases have different effects on the atmosphere and e)ist in different
!uantities. 9or e)ample, methane is one of the strongest absorbers of radiation, while carbon
dio)ide is not. However, the level of carbon dio)ide from gas emissions is much more
prevalent than methane, so its effect is much stronger overall. This atmospheric warming is
needed to maintain present conditions on the planet. Earth?s surface temperature would beappro)imately 38@9 #about

Can be divided into three di*erent groups, as &4) point sources, &) area
sources, and &0) line sources.
"ndustries, power plants, oil reneries etc. with their tall stac!s are a
maor source of air pollution and are considered to point sources.
Eesidential areas, apartments, o#ce buildings, hospitals, and schools are
also maor contributors of air pollution. These are area sources of air pollution.$ighways are considered to be line sources of air pollution.
=ome man-made air pollution sources are motor vehicles, industrial

services.

8. Define s(bsidene inversion
2 s(bsidene inversion develops when a widespread layer of air descends. The layer is compressed
and heated by the resulting increase in atmospheric pressure, and as a result the lapse rate of
temperature is reduced
(ubsidence &nversions Take pace in valleys or in places partially surrounded by hills or
mountains.
hen the air blows over the hills, it is heated as it is compressed into the side of the hills
hen that warm air comes over the top, it is warmer than the cooler air of the valley.
2lso, increasing the inversion, as the air comes over the top of the hill, it causes the air in the
valley to be compressed, heating the cooler, valley air from the top down. hen this cool air is
trapped and compressed, so is everything that is in the air, such as vehicle emissions, smoke, and
smog in general. This is a big problem for cities located in valleys

An alternative fuel, most generally dened, is any fuel other than the
traditional selections, gasoline and diesel, used to produce energy or power. The
emissions impact and energy output provided by alternative fuels varies,
depending on the fuel source. '8amples of alternative fuels include biodiesel,
ethanol, electricity, propane, compressed natural gas, and hydrogen.
