Science is still unable to predict earthquakes with any accuracy, and the nature of the quake and the damage it causes will depend on numerous factors, such as the depth of the quake (in this case it was shallow, meaning more ground shaking) and the nature of the rocks.he quake happened in one of the worldâs most active seismic zones, the great transglobal mountain belt that stretches from the Pyrenees in the far west through the Alps, Caucasus and Himalaya ranges to the forested hills of south-east Asia.
Ways to Reduce Carbon Dioxide Emissions. There are three primary methods for reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere: employing energy efficiency and conservation practices; using carbon-free or reduced-carbon energy resources; and capturing and storing carbon either from fossil fuels or from the atmosphere.
Carbon Dioxide. Carbon dioxide is one of the greenhouse gases that help to hold heat in the atmosphere. Trees remove some of this carbon dioxide from the air through photosynthesis and store that carbon in their tissues and in the soil. This process is known as carbon sequestration. Since the industrial revolution began in the mid-1700s, more greenhouse gases have been released than removed from the air.
