There are many man-made causes. 1 is one of the biggest man-made problems. Pollution 2 in many shapes and sizes. Burning fossil(化石) fuels is one thing that causes pollution. Fossil fuels are fuels made of organic matter such as coal or oil. When fossil fuels are burned, they 3 a green house gas called CO2. Also mining coal and oil allows methane(甲烷)to escape. How does it escape? Methane is 4 in the ground. 5 coal or oil is mined, you have to dig up the earth a little. When you dig up the fossil fuels, you dig up the methane as well. Another major man-made 6 of global warming is population. More people 7 more food, and more transportation, right? That means more methane because 8 will be more burning of fossil fuels, 9 more agriculture. Now you are probably thinking, Wait a minute. You said agriculture will be damaged by global warning, but 10 you are saying agriculture is going to help cause global warning? Well, have you 11 been in a bam filled with animals and you smell something terrible? You are 12 methane. Another source of methane is manure(粪肥). Because more food is needed, we have to 13 food. Animals like cows are a source of food which means more manure and methane. Another problem 14 the increasing population is 15 . More people means more cars, and more cars means more pollution. Also, many people have more than one car. Since CO2 contributes to global warning, the increase in population makes the problem worse because we breathe out CO2. 16 , the trees that change our CO2 to oxygen are being destroyed because we are using the land 17 we cut the trees down from as property for our homes and buildings.

In 1940, he married Patricia Ryan; they had two daughters, Tricia and Julie. During World War II, Nixon served as a Navy commander in the Pacific.On leaving the service, he was elected to Congress from his California district. In 1950, he won a Senate seat. Two years later, General Eisenhower selected Nixon, aged 39, to be his running mate.As Vice President, Nixon took on major duties in the Eisenhower Administration. Nominated (提名) for President by loud approval in 1960, he lost by a narrow margin to John F. Kennedy. In 1968, he again won his partys nomination, and went on to defeat Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey and third-party candidate George C. Wallace.His achievements while in office included income sharing, new anticrime laws and a broad environmental program. One of the most dramatic events of his first term occurred in 1969, when American astronauts made the first moon landing.Some of his most publicly praised achievements came in his search for world stability. During visits in 1972 to Beijing and Moscow, he reduced tensions with China and the USSR.In his 1972 bid for office, Nixon defeated Democratic candidate George McGovern by one of the widest margins on record.Within a few months, his administration was involved in the so-called “Watergate” scandal, arising from a break-in at the offices of the Democratic National Committee during the 1972 campaign. The break-in was traced to officials of the Committee to re-elect the President. A number of administration officials had to leave office; some were later found guilty of offenses connected with efforts to cover up the affair. Nixon denied any personal involvement, but the courts forced him to hand in tape recordings which indicated that he had, in fact, tried to avoid the investigation.Faced with what seemed almost certain impeachment (弹劾), Nixon announced on August 8, 1974, that he would resign the next day to begin “that process of mending which is so desperately needed in America.”In his last years, Nixon gained praise as an elder statesman. By the time of his death on April 22, 1994, he had written numerous books on his experiences in public life and on foreign policy.Title: The life story of Richard M.
