Q:How to slow down Greenhouse Effect from your Knowledge and point of view?A:The theory of Greenhouse Effect is that the greenhouse gas on Earth restains and absorbs solar radiation heat reflected by the earth surface, so as to decrease temperature difference at daylight and night. Under influences of industry development and man's activity, the greenhouse gas increases by large amount to aggravate the greenhouse effect, which results in global warning and climate change. Therefore, the essential solution is to decrease greenhouse gas (CO2, vapor and methane in general) by two means :( 1) restrain the greenhouse gas discharged by industrial activity, such as signing of Kyoto Protocol (2) Search for substitute new energy of environmental protection such as solar energy, wind power and biologic organic energy. Of course, the implementation of environmental protection education is more important. We can achieve goal of environmental protection by good behaviors, such as shut-down of light, freezer and energy saving etc. in daily life. Q:What is the relation of Holy Innocent Phenomenon and Greenhouse Effect?A:Holy Innocent Phenomenon is derived from the upward flow which occurs in the maritime area near Peru, which will have effect on global climate. Since this phenomenon occurs before or after Dec. 25, the birthday of Jesus Christ, it is called the Holy Innocent Phenomenon. Actually speaking, the Holy Innocent Phenomenon has no direct relation with Greenhouse Effect; but these two result in great changes in environment and climate at the end of this century such as frequent occurrence and great scale of hurricane, typhoon. In addition, it is also difficult to grasp their performance. The abnormal temperature elevation or decrease has interactive effect on global climate change to greater Addition Effect. Q:Does Greenhouse Effect will stop or recover?A:We can not stop greenhouse since Greenhouse Effect itself is a natural phenomenon as we described before. The Earth needs moderate temperature to shorten temperature distance between daylight and night, so as to keep enough warm for species existence. The today's excessive greenhouse effect, however, results in many influences such as climate change and global warming etc. Therefore, we can lighten influence of Greenhouse Effect by means of greenhouse gas or energy recover it. The ways for greenhouse gas decrease are as follows: Plant trees in forest to slow down slashing in rain forest The rain forest is recognized as Lung of Earth because it can consume greenhouse gas-CO2 through mass photosynthesis and release oxygen for necessary breath of species. There are international organization rules or international protocol such as Kyoto Protocol to limit the total discharge volume of CO2 release by the industrial countries. Of course, it can not bring into full play unless the supports of all the countries in the world. The world leader-US refuses to sign this protocol, which is a frustration for Greenhouse Effect Treatment.
Q:Will the great disaster displayed in film The Day after Tomorrow occur in Taiwan in the future?A:It is possible. Since the Greenhouse Effect is global, it is a worldwide subject or problem. The US has suffered a lot of sudden hurricane or high-temperature heat wave, which generates great damages to people's life and property. Taiwan, as a member of Earth, can not isolate from this global disaster, but may suffer to different degree. There are so many factors that may affect climate, such as landform, geography, latitude and altitude, ocean current etc. For example, we will not encounter hurricane or waterspout or tsunami of large scale, but may suffer more damages of typhoon. The average temperature may elevate as well. Q:Does the climate change caused by Greenhouse Effect have obvious effect on Taiwan?A:Yes. The obvious evidence is the typhoon movement towards north in the past, the typhoon passes Philippines mainly, but it moves north to Taiwan in recent years with a tendency of moving towards Japan, northeast coast of the mainland. Another remarkable evidence is that the highest temperate and annual average temperature have increased year by year, which displays the actual power of global warming to us. Q:What measures will the government take to slow down Greenhouse Effect?A:Generally speaking, the performance of our government conforms to environmental protection protocol and tendency internationally, such as energy saving and substitute energy development etc. In recent, the energy-saving vehicle is promoted by government since the electrical engine or oil-electrical mix engine of taxi can decrease application of petrochemical fuels as well as discharge of greenhouse gas. The detailed policies are contained in your webpage-Greenhouse Effect Treatment Organization. You can also take data of Environmental Protection Agency as reference. Q:Do you have any suggestion or advice on our special research and webpage?A:I have watched rich content and data in your Greenhouse Effect Treatment Net of meticulous design, and I appreciate your good preparation and concentration on it. It can be perfected through your continuous efforts by the same program means. I bless you that your webpage can run well so that you can share your achievement with all students in the world through internet. Keep up the good work! The teacher listens to our questions seriously and put forward may precious suggestions. We get a lot from her thoughtful and elegant conversation style Afterthoughts on InterviewsWe think that we have studied Greenhouse Effect thoroughly, but the teacher explains many misunderstand and wrong concepts to us through this interview, which displays some blind points which we do not pay attention to. The most important recognition is: The Greenhouse Effect is a global subject we are facing at. Since its influence is worldwide, Taiwan, as one member of the Earth can not isolate from it. We must do our contribution to global warming treatment in daily life. We would like to express our gratitude to Miss. Xu Ye-Jing who influences us by her thoughtful and elegant conversation style. With precious suggestions and encourages of teachers, we will keep up our work. Dear teacher, please accept our appreciation once more.
After interview, we take photograph with beautiful and knowledgeable Miss. Xu. |
