Pockets or bubbles of water trapped in ice enable glaciers to flow and bend (i.e, be plastic in nature).

Mars is 1/10 mass of Earth & it probably cooled rapidly, and plate tectonics shut down.

The mid-latitudes are warming faster from global warming than any other areas of the Earth.

Based on proxy data and measured data, Earth is warmer now than anytime in last 1000 years.

Permafrost thawing can cause a phenomena known as drunken trees.

Periods of glacial activity can change in periods as short as 10 years.

Global warming increases precipitation is some areas, and causes drought in others.

It has been suggested that in order to effectively address global warming, Earths society must consider population control and the development of new technologies.

A Mars-sized body may have struck the proto-Earth at an oblique angle, causing ejecta that eventually formed the Moon.

Wetlands help regulate water levels within watersheds; improve water quality; reduce flood and storm damages; provide important fish and wildlife habitat; and support hunting, fishing, and other recreational activities.

The "crater zone" is an area typically too shallow in a Kimberlite pipe for containing diamonds.

The Pleistocene epoch ended about 12,000 years ago, and we are now in a warmer period known as the Holocene epoch. According to the Milankovitch Cycle, we should enter the next ice age in several thousand years from now. However, global warming may stall or even prevent the occurrence of the next ice age.

Reconnection on the day side of Earth is critical for allowing solar wind energy to come into the magnetosphere. Night-side reconnection is critical for the transfer of that energy down to the atmosphere

According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, increases in the global mean temperature of less than 1-3 degrees C above 1990 levels will produce benefits in some places . . . and produce costs in other places.

A major research question being addressed by many career domains is "how dangerous is the unintended human experiment with the functioning of the Earth System?"

Climate modeling often provides the most reliable forecasting technique of average weather conditions when forecasting beyond 10 days.

Unchecked, climate change and global warming may aggravate old and trigger new tensions in parts of the world that may spill over into violence, conflict, and war.

Most space junk is very small (for example, paint flecks). But there are over 7,500 objects orbiting Earth that are bigger than a baseball.

Hydrologists, geographers, and oceanographers are examples of professions that may study the hydrosphere or cryosphere.

Scientist have not found any evidence that biological activity can enhance the chemical weathering of rock.

Explanation / Answer

1 False

Cause Glaciers moves due to the overlying own weight it requires many years in order to gain weight and start flow.

2 True

Our earth is an alive so lots of things is continuously happening on the surface along with inside as a result our earth is continuously reshapes itself by the role of plate tectonic which is prevailing on earth where as it might have come to an stop on other planets.

3 False

Arctic have an more effected by global warming as compare to rest of world. Temperature increases twice as compare to rest of the world.

4 True.

As we are the one of the greatest creation of the nature and we have all the knowhow how to cope up with any type of situation but in this front I doubt as we have triggered the cause of our destruction by freeing green house gases or other impurities in this atmosphere so we have to at list pay the cost and it's not going to come to come down rather then it'll increase .
