One of the factors in
global warming is carbon
monoxide The more
carbon monoxide in the
atmosphere, the less the
atmosphere is able to
clean itself The result is a
atmosphere, the so-called
global warming, and
possibly ozone damage.
Earlier, it was found that
carbon monoxide was
concentrated in the
Southern Hemisphere, and
could be attributed to
deforestation Huge areas
of forest and grasslands in
South America and Africa
have been burned, putting
carbon monoxide into the
atmosphere Recently,
however, 10 the Southern
Hemisphere has been
found to be clean, while
the Northern Hemisphere
is more polluted than
expected.
The latest research was
done during the northern
winter The high levels in
the Northern Hemisphere
could be because of this.
In winter 15 carbon
monoxide is destroyed
more slowly There are
also more fires burned in
winter, and possibly
industrial processes work
harder It could also reflect
the ever-increasing
number of cars on the
roads Optimists hope that
the reason why the North
has overtaken the South as
the major area of carbon
monoxide is that at last the
burning 20 has stopped, or
at least slowed down.
Trang 4A People are buying more cars
B There is more carbon dioxide in the North
C They are possibly burning fewer forests in the Southern Hemisphere
