a Blue is the water that exists on the surface while green is the water that goes into agriculture b Blue is the water that exists on the surface while green is the water that has been used in process c Blue is the water that goes into agriculture while green is the water that exist on the surface 24 What are the differences between green and gray water? a Green is the water that exists on the surface while gray is the water that goes into agriculture b Green is the water that exists on the surface while gray is the water that has been used in process c Green is the water that goes into agriculture while gray is the water that has been used in process 25 What is the best definition of the world’s water footprints?

a Water companies responding to shareholders, not the general public b Water companies taking control of a public water system and charging residents for water access c Water companies functioning as public utilities or community based organizations 27 Water quality is affected by what three factors? a Industrialization, Urbanization, and Agriculture b Industrialization, Agriculture, Recreation c Residential Housing, Urbanization, Education 28 How does industrialization affect water quality? a Emissions impact quality and temperature b Emissions affect the flow rate of rivers and streams c Emissions impact mineral content water 29 How does urbanization affect water quality? a Density impacts smell and taste b Density impacts access and sanitation c Population impacts access and sanitation 30 How does agriculture affect water quality? a Runoff impacts sedimentation and pollution loads b Runoff alters the mineral content of the water c Runoff impacts the clarity and color 31 What is an example of the difference between weather and climate? a There is no notable difference between the climate and weather b The weather in London is temperate with cool wet winters, while the climate of London is sunny c The weather in London today is sunny, while the climate of London is temperate with cool wet winters 32 What is the best definition of climate? a Conditions of the atmosphere over a short period of time b How the atmosphere behaves over a long period of time and space c The immediate atmospheric conditions, including temperature, humidity, and wind speed 33 What is the best example of albedo? a When you wear dark-colored clothes and get hotter compared to someone wearing light-colored b When you wear light-colored clothes and get hotter compared to someone wearing dark-colored clothes c When light is refracted off a dark object making it feel cooler to the touch 34 Why do valleys often trap heat? a High elevation because as you go further up in the atmosphere the temperature gets warmer b Low elevation because as you go further up in the atmosphere the temperature gets colder c Low elevation because as you go further up in the atmosphere the temperature gets warmer 35 Why is there persistent ring of precipitation happening right around the equator? a More water is recycled in that area due to the water cycle resulting in more rain b The ring around the equator has a tropical climate causing more precipitation c Warm air gets pushed up towards the atmosphere that is unable to hold water and comes back as rain 36 What is the process of orographic rainfall?

a Climate change is a slow shift in climate and global warming is observed warming of climate b They are the same c Climate change is a rapid shift in climate and global warming is observed warming of climate 38 How is the greenhouse effect contributing to global warming? a Humans reduced emission of CO2 caused elevated levels of methane that traps heat b Humans enhanced emission of CO2 traps heat and prevents it from leaving the atmosphere c The greenhouse effect is a natural process caused by the emission of CO2 and isn’t global warming 39 Which are the best examples of the impact of climate change?
