The normal greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life. It doesn't hurt us.
We now have an enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming. This is damaging the planet as well as hurting us (thousands of people died in heat waves during 2012).
The sun sends light rays into the earth, but some of the light that hits the earth is reflected back into space. The rest warms the earth's surface and this warmth rises into the atmosphere in the form of infrared radiation. If carbon dioxide, along with water vapor, methane, sulfur hexafluoride, nitrous oxide, several types of chlorinated fluorocarbons and a few other gases, did not trap much of the rising heat, the earth would be so cold that no life could exist upon its surface. The trapping of this heat by gases is called the greenhouse effect.
Earth now has an enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming. Global warming is causing climate change, which is having serious consequences for us all.
A:We are alive and warm due to the Greenhouse Effect. Without this we would be a cold lifeless planet.However, the Enhanced Greenhouse Effect, caused by the increasing amounts of greenhouse gases from the burning of fossil fuels for transport and energy, is causing the atmosphere and the planet to warm up. This is changing our weather patterns. We are already seeing unusual weather records, hottest summers ever, driest seasons, biggest floods, coldest spells, no monsoon rains, the North West Passage free of ice etc.
The normal greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life. The enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming comes from the extra carbon dioxide we are adding to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
The greenhouse effect has a large effect on humans. This is because it decreases the oxygen in the atmosphere and kills organisms which humans use for food.
Greenhouse gas is adding to global warming and climate change.
It results in Global Warming.
Greenhouse gases have been working with the heat from the sun to keep the earth comfortably warm for millions of years. The gases absorb some of the heat from the warmed earth and keep it from escaping into space. When greenhouse gas levels increase, as they are from recent human activity, they retain more heat and the earth warms up.
Greenhouse effect is due to greenhouse gases. We have to stop their emission.
The greenhouse gases contribute to the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases are inescapable.
Fuels release greenhouse gases. These gases can cause ozone depletion.
All the things are related to each other. It is because all these affect the temperature and weather.
Greenhouse gases can cause ozone depletion. This depletion can affect children's skin easily.
no
They slow the loss of heat
Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide can enhance photosynthesis in plants, leading to increased growth under certain conditions. However, excessive greenhouse gas levels can also result in temperature increases and changes in precipitation patterns, which may impact plant health and disrupt ecosystems.
Greenhouse gases affect the temperature of the atmosphere. They capture the sun's heat and warm the planet.

Yes they do. they release greenhouse gases which affect ozone.

They stop heat from escaping the atmosphere.
yes they do. They both are related.
