Pollution from Airplanes

In the present time, traveling by airplanes is an important thing that people can’t leave. On the other hand, most people don’t know that it is effecting the environment in a bad way.

Studies had proved that 3.5 percent of global warming is caused by aviation; this percentage is expected to rise. Planes produce more carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, that any other public transport. Although airplanes cause a lot of damage, there are no taxes on the aircraft fuels, and planes are not examined for carbon dioxide productions.

Now days, companies are trying to find another fuel like hydrogen, but making airplanes harmless will take a lot of time. Therefore, travelers have the solution of this problem; by not traveling by plane at all.

What Causes Global Warming?

Global warming is one of the dangers that the Earths’ faces; that’s what made people and especially scientests search for an answer to the question: ‘what is causing global warming?’

Scientist found that human activity is one thing that leads to global warming; we add large amounts of gases to ther atmosphere that traps heat. One of the main source of these gases is the fossil fuel that we use. These gases are produced as long as we drive our cars, use electricity, or use oil or natural gas . Cutting trees is another thing that makes global warming worse; since trees and other plants collect carbon dioxide.

The increase of gases prodiction causes global warming too; it traps energy in the atmosphere which makes the surface warm; this is called the greenhouse effect.

However, my next post will contain more information about how airplanes cause global warming.

Global Warming

Global warming is the rise in the Earth's temperature resulting from an increase in heat-trapping gases in the atmosphere. This happens when the greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane, trap heat and light from the sun in the Earth atmosphere. Many living things can’t stand this change so they die.

However, a warmer Earth may lead to a rise in sea level, and many bad effects on living things. Studies proved that warming and rising in sea level are believed to continue although greenhouse gases are not releesed anymore.

In addition, the increase in global temperatures can cause changes in the farming sector, species extinctions, and increase in the insects that carries diseases.

Humans should take steps to solve thes problim, such as buying products that saves energy, recycling, planting trees, etc. Those are small things that make a big difference!

About me

My name is Mohammed Al-Shehhi. I'm Dhabyani is my nick name.I am 21 years old. I study Aviation in the Higher Colleges of Technology, Abu Dhabi.
Photography is one of the most things that interest me; I am looking forward to develop my skills more in this area. I occasionally go to different places to take special pictures using my Canon 350D camera. I display my photographs on many websites so that I benefit from other peoples’ opinions.

My favorite sport is football and I’m a supporter of Al Wahda Club.

In my spare time, I either go to the cinema with a friend, or spend the time surfing the net. I established my own online forum,

http://www.suae.net, and I am proud that it has became popular in a short time. “The Pursuit of Happiness” is the best movie I’ve ever watched until now.

Thank you all for visiting my blog, I hope that you will enjoy your time.
