paper on Reducing Logistics Carbon Emissions What is Carbon Emissions? Carbon Emissions is the release of Carbon into the atmosphere. Carbon is released by the transport sector; by the manufacturing processes; and by the heating‚ cooling‚ and electricity for buildings. Carbon Emissions to the atmosphere is mainly from the burning of fossil fuels. The release of carbon is measured in metric tons. What is impact of Carbon Emissions on climate change? The emission of carbon to the atmosphere results

Using the flame test‚ unknown compounds can be identified when they are burned since each element has a specific color. (Douma‚ 2008). The color of the flame produced from the heated atoms can be recorded as a line spectrum which clearly identifies an element. These line spectrums are used by scientists to identify an element‚ since sometimes it is hard to see what color a heated atom is

What exactly is the electromagnetic spectrum? Is a continuous range of wavelengths‚ which includes gamma rays‚ ultraviolet waves and other forms of electromagnetic radiation. How does the issue of scarcity and interference relate to the electromagnetic spectrum? The spectrum is considered scarce because of the limited number of frequencies for operation and two parties cannot broadcast on the same frequency in the spectrum. Interference not only can be caused by broadcasters but by natural phenomenons
