Dolphins are among the most intelligent animals on earth. They are playful as well as smart and are easily
trained for zoo and aquarium shows. They jump through hoops and fetch and grab objects from the trainer’s hands.
Dolphins communicate with each other in a variety of ways using clicking, whistling and slapping sounds.
Dolphins can locate objects easily under the water through a system called echolocation. This is like a built-
in-sonar system. The dolphin makes a series of clicking sounds, then listens for the sounds as echoes bounce back
from underwater object.

Carbon Dioxide, the Greenhouse Effect, and Recent Global Warming


Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that strongly absorbs infrared radiation and plays a major role in
warming the lower atmosphere. We also know that carbon dioxide has been increasing steadily in the
atmosphere, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels. However, deforestation may also be adding to
this increase as tropical rainforests are removed and replaced with less efficient plants. In 1990, the
annual average of carbon dioxide was about 350 parts per million, and present estimates are that this
value may double sometime in century.
