Causes of Global Warming

Eventually with out stop, with industrialization global warming has finally come. There are many causes for this tragedy but the major ones are listed below:-

Carbon Dioxide from Power Plants
Carbon Dioxide Emitted from Cars
Carbon Dioxide from Trucks
Carbon Dioxide from Airplanes
Carbon Dioxide from Buildings
Nitrous oxide
Deforestation
City Gridlock
Carbon in Atmosphere and Ocean


One cause not mentioned above but might sound a bit strange is livestock.
I found this on a site; the article says “Cow 'emissions' more damaging to planet than CO2 from cars” that sounded obsurd in the beginning but, as I read it, it made a lot of sense. Below is the article that I read.

It said that livestock are responsible for 18 per cent of the greenhouse gases that cause global warming which is more than cars, planes and all other forms of transport put together.

It also said that burning fuel to produce fertilizer to grow feed, to produce meat and to transport it - and clearing vegetation for grazing - produces 9 per cent of all emissions of carbon dioxide, the most common greenhouse gas. And their wind and manure emit more than one third of emissions of another, methane, which warms the world 20 times faster than carbon dioxide.

Livestock also produces more than 100 other polluting gases, including more than two-thirds of the world's emissions of ammonia, one of the main causes of acid rain.
