Complete 2 pages APA formatted article: The Greenhouse Effect. Greenhouse Effect In the recent years with the modernization of this world, new and grave problems are arising for the people living in this world. With the help of modern science different types of troubles are being discovered in the globe on a daily basis. Most of the problems being found in the world are related to the environmental factors. One such environmental problem which has created a political spark all over the world is ‘Global Warming’. Global Warming can be defined as, the increase of the overall temperature prevailing in this world. However the word can be said to possess a broader meaning as it is directly or indirectly related to the whole atmosphere of this world. Green house gases are the direct source of the problem identified as Global Warming. Carbon Dioxide and Methane form a larger part of these greenhouse gases. These greenhouse gases further lead to an effect known as the greenhouse effect which causes the whole atmosphere in this world to lower down (Global Warming in 21st Century Causes Effects & Future, 2008). Greenhouse effect has an impact on the whole system of Global Warming and is considered as an important ingredient which works towards this problem.

A report published by United Nations stated that livestock plays a major role in the emission of green house gases and measures should be taken to reduce the livestock. This should be done by lowering the consumption of meat and dairy milk products. However this view has been challenged by a report presented in the National Meeting of the American Chemical Society. They argue that livestock only has a minor role to play in increasing the greenhouse gases in comparison to the greenhouse gases emitted by the transportation. According to this report the factors which would reduce green house effect is not related to livestock and hence livestock should not be targeted by the experts. They believe that if livestock is to be targeted then it would result in an even drastic effect in the developing countries. The experts believe that rather than reducing the consumption of livestock the measures should target the methods through which livestock is raised. The methods in processing meat related foods should be improvised such that the green house gases emitted in the process are decreased. Currently the developed countries have such measures through which they can avoid this and hence the developing countries should be targeted in this respect. The developed countries should be targeting their issue of transportation which emits a great number of greenhouse gases. Effective use of sources such as oil and coal should be achieved in these developed countries to reduce the green house effect (American Chemical Society 2010).

In conclusion it can be said that the livestock should be targeted in such a way that meat consumption should not be decreased but rather measures should be taken to raise effective livestock without decreased emission of greenhouse gases. On the other hand the most important factor that should be considered regarding the green house gases should be the transportation factor as discussed above (American Chemical Society 2010).
