PREDICTION

The parts per million increased by 20 parts in 10 years so it is likely that in 50 more years it would increase by 100 parts, which would make the parts per million 485 in the year 2058.

QUESTIONS

What will be the carbon dioxide parts per million by volume in 2058?

481.268 ppm

What is the regression line and the critical points?

regression for CO2 emissions: 360.59+1.828x

x-intercept is when carbon first went int air y-intercept is where info starts

temperature variation:-.003x^3+.057x^2-.381

x intercept is where temperature starts increasing y-intercept is where info starts

What needs is your plan to stop the increase of Co2?

To invent new technology that can help reduce that amount is produced by using fossil fuels. An example of this is making more fuel efficient cars. Next, alternatives for these fuels should be implemented such as bio fuels, which don't produce CO2. Lastly, conservation of fossil fuels will dramatically stop the amount of CO2 being produced.

ANALYSIS

The graph is showing how the Co2 levels are continuing to rise without and sign of stopping. The most believable causes for this is that we are the ones causing most of the Co2 to form. The eccessive ammounts of Co2 are causing lower than normal temperature which is causing some to belive that an iceage could be in the future.

CONCLUSION

Evan: The Co2 levels are increasing consistently and rapidly. Viewing this has made me realize that we need to do something to cut back on it, whether that means discovering a cleaner fuel or making more fuel efficient cars and lower our dependency on Co2-causing fuel.

Dan: Having a high level of Co2 in the atmosphere has almost a strictly negative effect and all actions must be taken to stop adding to the number and cut back on our man made Co2 production by seeking creative and thoughtful substitutes.

Ryan: After looking at the information gathered and what I already knew about the topic I believe that if we do not change our habbits this pattern will continue. We have to begin to be more cautious about our Co2 production and must do whatever we can to help the problem. Some ways we can do this include, car pooling and more energy efficient cars.
