Delimiter between question and answer:

Tips:

  • No column headers.
  • Each line maps to a question.
  • If the delimiter is used in a question, the question should be surrounded by double quotes: "My, question","My, answer"
  • The first answer in the multiple choice question must be the correct answer.

Solar Output
The total amount of Sun’s energy emitted. It has a relatively strong correlation with the temperature until recent years because of the greenhouse effect caused
Ozone in the atmosphere (between the stratosphere and troposphere), a highly reactive oxidant that significantly reduces crop productivity.
Tropospheric Ozone
Ozone
Ozone (O3) is a highly reactive gas composed of three oxygen atoms. It is both a natural and a man-made product that occurs in the Earth's upper atmosphere. (th
Methane
CHâ‚„, a flammable gas; a powerful greenhouse gas; the burning of it releases carbon dioxide.
Climate Forcers
A group of air pollutants and greenhouse gases that causes radiative forcing (causing less heat to leave Earth & more heat the Earth absorbs).
A colourless, non-flammable greenhouse gas that is three hundred times more harmful than carbon dioxide, mostly comes from animal manure and the use of fertilizer.
Nitrous Oxide
Fossil Fuels
Fuels like coal, crude oil, and natural gas, naturally formed from buried, fossilized dead plants and animals.
The movement of air on a global scale that redistributes heat to the surface of the Earth, caused by the disparity in temperature.
Atmospheric Circulation
The pressure of the weight of the column of air above a given point.
Atmospheric Pressure
The study of climate behaviour over the long-term
Climatology
The study around the weather of an area.
Meteorology
To collect the parts into a whole sum; grained particles used in construction.
Aggregates
Anthropogenic
Related to or influenced by or caused by humans. In other words, the human causes of climate change as an example.
Inadvertent:
Unintentional. What human beings are doing to the environment is not planned but a consequence of efforts to industrialize and develop.
The ecosystem of the living organisms on Earth, including the land, the sea, and the atmosphere.
Biosphere:
A measure of water vapours in the atmosphere
Humidity
The condition of the atmosphere in a specific time of a place, like precipitation and temperature
Weather
Climate
The general weather condition in the long term of a region, including temperature, humidity, air condition, etc
Potable
Safe to drink; drinkable.
Aquifers
Layers of permeable underground rock saturated with water; an essential source of freshwater. However, once it runs dry in the future, it will require thousands
The effect when the atmosphere traps the heat by radiating the heat back to the Earth, caused by the accumulation of greenhouse gas, causing global warming.
Greenhouse Effect
Clear cutting of forests, necessary for land conversion into urban and farms. While being the most efficient, economically profitable and convenient method, without reforestation it would cause soil erosion and water degradation.
Deforestation
Pollution of bodies of water that are not underground, like lakes, rivers, and oceans, often caused by runoffs from farms, cities, mines, industries, and oil tankers.
Surface Water Pollution
Relates to breathing. The system takes oxygen in and carbon dioxide out, exchanging gases by inhaling and exhaling.
Respiratory
The scientific name for lung disease like asthma, chronic bronchitis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Pulmonary Disease
The pollution in the atmosphere, formed when a certain substance reaches a harmful concentration in the air, mostly gases and particles, which mostly come from the burning of fossil fuel and coal and dust from human activities.
Air Pollution
An air pollutant; a hazardous ­mixture of microscopic particles and droplets such as dust and smoke.
Particulate Matter
The availability and accessibility of food for the public. It exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nu
Food Security
Detrimental substances like ozone and carbon monoxide that pollute the environment, particularly air and water, causing damages to the Earth, plants, and animals, including humans
Pollutant:
Filtration
The action of filtering for separating fluid and particles. For water, filtration indicates the process of removing unwanted pollutants from water, such as bact
Water that is underground in permeable soil and rock's pores and fractures, on top of the layer of impermeable rock, forms when precipitation seeps into the ground.
