* contains carbon monoxide and small traces of volatile organic compounds.
* contributes significantly to Europe's greenhouse gas emissions.
* is the major source of carbon monoxide pollution in the Denver metropolitan area
  - monoxide pollution in the Denver-metropolitan area

Family system
* Every family system contains many sub-systems, little alliances or tightly knit circles.
* Most family systems fall somewhere in the middle between open and closed.

Federal system
* are common among large nations where several levels of government are needed.

* are the information backbone of every company.

Frontal system
* are zones that separate airmasses of different temperatures.
* arise from the meeting of two air masses of different temperature and moisture.

Fuzzy system
* can model any system.
* deduce knowledge from the given fuzzy rules.
* have fuzzy rules, too.
* use a series of simple rules, based upon experience, much as the human brain does
  - fuzzy estimation and control transforms
* work fine as long as the number of variables is low.

Geothermal system
* use energy stored in the earth to heat and cool buildings.
* work by moving heat, rather than by converting chemical energy to heat.

Grazing system
* are important plant management tools in livestock systems.

* Many human systems are sensitive to climate change, and some are vulnerable.
* organize people.
* show all types of complexity.

Hydroponic system
* Most hydroponic systems have some type of circulating system.
* reduce space requirements and growing time needed to produce a crop.

### system:

Information system
* All information systems have a finite capacity.
* Every information system has a life cycle, similar to the human life cycle.
* Most information systems lack semantics.
* are a crucial component in the competitiveness equation
  - of any organization
