Subject: Information regarding the effects of greenhouse gases
To whom to may concern,
Thank you for agreeing to speak with me the effects of greenhouse gases on our
environment. When it comes to greenhouse gases, the impact has become more and more
prevalent as there have become more uses for things such as fuel in transportation vehicles and
different forms of energy, in terms of coal and natural gas. Greenhouse gases have been shown to
cause an array of negative effects in the environment and everything living in it, including
climate change, respiratory effects on humans, and the potential to cause multiple species of
animals to become extinct.
One thing I think we can do is to encourage people to reduce their carbon footprint and
limit usage of things in their daily lives. One example would be to encourage people to move to
renewable energy options, including hybrid-electric cars and alternative energy options like solar
energy and potentially move towards nuclear energy. Throughout the memo below is explained
several reasons to move away from various forms of energy due to the negative effects that
greenhouse gases have caused on our environment. I look forward to hearing from you and
would appreciate setting up a potential meeting to further discuss these topics.
Thanks again,
Kaleb Cobb

Deleted: Dear writers of MetOffice,
Deleted: regarding the information you have for your
website. When it comes to a concept in nature like rainbows,
people often think that they are very simple and that they can
only take one form. When conducting my research regarding
the conditions in nature for rainbows to form, the formation
of rainbows, and the variations that rainbows can form when
weather conditions are different, I actually used one of your
articles as a reference in my paper. However, when looking
through your website, I noticed there was only one article
regarding rainbows on your website, and it only highlighted
the basic formation of rainbows.¶
In order to help further strengthen your website in regards to
having more information about rainbows, I would like to
offer you the research I have done so that you could create a
solid array of information for readers to have on rainbows so
that they would not have to use other sources. In my
research, I have found an array of various sources that
allowed me to create a solid overview of every facet of a
rainbow someone could potentially want to know. I hope that
after reading my paper, you will consider using my research
to further strengthen the content on your website.

This report addresses an array of topics regarding the ecological impacts that greenhouse
gases have on the environment When conducting research to gain a comprehensive overview of
greenhouse gases and their impact on various parts of the environment, I noticed several
different impacts that most people probably wouldn’t have thought could be caused by
something as simple as driving your car during the day.
Summary
Rainbows have become not only a sign of being able to tell when there has recently been
a rainstorm, but they have also become a sign of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere.
Greenhouse gases can cause various problems in the world, including climate change and
potential respiratory issues. The main purpose of this paper is to educate on the formation of
rainbows, the causes and effects of greenhouse gases in the environment, and potential solutions
to the issue of greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are caused by basic fuel emissions by people
in the world. There are several different causes of greenhouse gas emissions, but the primary
causes are transportation – people using their cars, public transportation, and other forms of
transportation. Another form of greenhouse gas emissions is electricity – using things like coal
and natural gas as forms of electricity causes further emissions of greenhouses gases in the air.

Deleted: Rainbows are an intrinsic part of nature, happening
automatically under the correct weather conditions. When
most people think about rainbows, they often think about
them as just happening due to a rainstorm. While rainstorms
are one of the ideal conditions for a rainbow to appear, there
are several different conditions that can cause rainbows to
appear and vary in intensity and form. Rainbows are
primarily caused by water droplets, and the water droplets
refract off of light particles from the sun, causing a rainbow
to appear. In order for a rainbow to appear, there is a certain
amount of a geometric perspective that goes into being able
to see a rainbow in its optimal form. When standing at the
correct angle and the sun being at its optimal angle for
viewing a rainbow, the rainbow will be vibrant and the
standard arc shape everyone expects. However, when
weather conditions can vary, rainbows can take on different
forms, in either shape, color, or intensity. Rainbows tend to
be more intense when the sun is at different angles, primarily
when the sun rises or sets. The color of rainbows is prone to
changing when the weather conditions differ – when the
weather is somewhat cloudy and foggy, a “fog bow” will
form, which has the same form as a rainbow but it has a
somewhat ghostly and foggy appearance compared to the
colorful appearance that a rainbow has.¶
 Greenhouse gases have become more frequent in the environment because of the frequent
use of transportation as well as the use of energy through means of coal and natural gases. The
main phrase that most ecological associations use when speaking on reducing greenhouse gas
emissions is “reducing your carbon footprint.” To limit emissions from using transportation in
your daily life, one recommendation would be to potentially move from a car that uses gas to an
electric car – hybrid and totally electric cars have become very easy to come by, with some of
the main car companies in the world starting to make hybrid-electric cars. To limit emissions
from energy, using renewable energy options like solar energy panels as a source of energy
would heavily lower or potentially eliminate the emissions of greenhouse gases. Nuclear energy
also often comes into discussion when speaking about alternative sources of energy, but people
tend to stray away from nuclear energy due to its high costs and the unknowns of its disposal.
Conclusion
The natural phenomenon of rainbows is one of the most beautiful things in nature, and
because of greenhouse gases, we are at risk of losing something natural due to the worsening of
the environment. With some of the potential steps listed above, we can potentially move toward
bettering the environment by all reducing our carbon footprints.
Deleted: When looking through the MetOffice website, I’ve
noticed that your information on rainbows is somewhat
lacking – the main article I used from your website for
information during my research was the article that involved
talking about the formation of a rainbow. While the
formation is one of the main parts of rainbows, there are
several other areas of rainbows that have not been covered in
articles from your website. I think that highlighting that there
can be variations of rainbows is useful for readers of your
articles, primarily because some people could see them in
real life and not realize that what they are seeing is a
variation of a rainbow but not realize that’s what they are
seeing. By taking my research that I’ve collected across
various sources, you can bolster your website and have all
the necessary information for any reader that would need to
know about rainbows in further detail than just their basic
formation.¶
Deleted: such an interesting topic to learn about, and I think
by taking your information regarding rainbows and the
research I have conducted in order to create a solid repertoire
of information for readers to refer to when needing any
information regarding rainbows, from the weather conditions
needed to form a rainbow, the formation of a rainbow, and
the variations of rainbows that can form due to different
weather conditions.
