Amazing facts about greenhouse gases

Facts about Greenhouse gases, why we should take serious attention on this issue?

As you must have already knew, the earth is getting warmer these days because of increasing volume of greenhouse gases. It is the consequences of heat concentration which captured by specific gases inside the atmosphere namely the greenhouse gases. These gases accumulating heat and reflecting back to the earth's surface.

In the old days, facts about greenhouse gases are essential to life as they maintain the planet's surface warm enabling to support life. If these gases are not available, the earth would be covered with ice. However, while the percentage of these gases remain to build up the in the atmosphere, the Earth's temperature is rising above the ideal level.

With increasing temperature globally, the climate are also changing due to the increasing number of greenhouse gases in terms of spread and density. Rainfall patterns, snowfall and, and sea level would change dramatically over the years and you know what?

Every living creatures should have the ability to sustain and adapt those changes or they will vanish, as simple as that. Human, in this case you and me, may have the ability to adapt to change intelligently, but if things getting worse it will eventually more difficult to cope with. 

 In fact animals and plants will suffer the first before human due to these climate changes, and what can you do without them? Simply nothing, without animal and plants we probably are next to extinct.

 

Definition of greenhouse gases

The name 'greenhouse gases' is used to refer to the gases that exist in the atmosphere which absorb the radiations and emit them within the thermal infrared range. So the definition of greenhouse gases may be interpreted as It is the outcome of heat captivation by a selection of gases inside the atmosphere as they absorb heat from the lower atmosphere and reflecting back some of that heat to the earth. 

 

Gases that absorb the sun's infrared radiation and trap its heat in the earth's atmosphere. These greenhouse gases tend to trap the solar radiations, which eventually leads to a rise in the surface temperature.

What causes greenhouse gases

When people burning coal as well as oil, piling up landfill, or when you drive cars filled with gasoline, working on animal farming, deforestation, and much more which will create greenhouse gases.

As mentioned earlier we all need the greenhouse effect to get enough warm and to live on, however when those gases accumulating in an excess amount, they will be creating a global warming, and hence more climate changes. 

 

The greenhouse gases form glass like structure that would enable heat to go through and blocking them to get outside.

Where do greenhouse gases come from

Beside from human factor, greenhouse gases can be generated from nature activities, one fact that you all aware is the natural gases from earth that release into the air. Volcano eruption would also contribute to increase the gases. 

Nevertheless, human perhaps you, definitely me, most human are the biggest contribution to this climate changes over the past few years. Most of the emission would come from the exploitation of fossil fuels that would include petroleum and coal.

Types of greenhouse gases

One of many types of greenhouse gases that we all familiar with is carbon Dioxide and probably methane. Other types of gases found inside the atmosphere is water vapor, chlorofluorocarbons , sulfur hexafluoride, nitrous oxide, sulfur hexafluoride, chlorofluorocarbons, hydro-fluorocarbons, per-fluorocarbons and ozone. These gases draw infrared radiation and determine the climate changes.

What should we do to reduce greenhouse pollution?

I think you know what to do, reducing the use of fossil fuels would be the first, stopping deforestation and promoting to grow more oxygen producing plant would be another idea. There are a lot of actions can be taken to preserve our earth inhabitants, and leave something behind for the next generations to come.

Bananas and constipation, what is the relation between them?

Who doesn't like eating banana? Their sweet and tender taste are so irresistible. The yellow it gets the softer and more sweet it becomes.

They are many types of banana coming from various origin, mostly from tropical places and each one of them has its own distinct characteristics which make them so unique, and tasteful.

Bananas and constipation, are they good or bad?

One day I got a chance to talk with a friend of mine, we talked about food, fruits and vegetables in particular. She told me that she had this constipation problem, and to the bigger surprise was she admitted that the cause of her problem was because she had consumed bananas a couple of days before.

Now I got confused, I read some articles, and getting advise from my doctor long before, that eating banana should cure constipation, not the other way around.

My doctor said that if we eat banana at least one or two a day, it should helps you with your constipation problem, because of its natural mild laxative effect. I said to myself what in the world is happening? Which bananas and constipation facts are true?

I am so curious so that I called my doctor again, I have mentioned about my friend's bowel problem because of her eating banana. My doctor paused a moment and finally said that he had not got the chance to explain to me before that banana can both cure and cause the constipation. What? Yes both he said

Apparently, before you eat banana to cure your stool's issue, you need first to recognize what are the cause. The old wisdom of Asian medicine have divided constipation into two main categories.

1. Heat-constipation – which is when you feel heat piling up in your stomach, this is may be happening if you drink too much alcohol, spicy foods, or when you catch fever. 

2. Cold-constipation – which means you don't have enough heat or warm in your digestive system which is very much needed to easily digesting the food. This may happening, when you drink cold water, eating ice cream, and raw meals.

You need to eat banana when having heat type of constipation, because banana have this cold effect to counter act the heat generated inside your stomach. The idea is to keep it all in balance, so your digestive system will get back to its normal condition and to work the way it should be.

What happen if you eating banana when having cold type constipation? You may not get cured, on the other hand, you may get sick, because too much “cold” in your system will bring you nothing but diarrhea.

So the key principle here are just so simple, keep your body warm, if get too much heat try to cool it down, too cold don't eat banana, try something else, warm milk with ginger perhaps?

Other banana facts

Beside the constipation related issue, banana is good for us, eat them daily you will feel that your body more energize, because I fell the same way after eating a banana.
