What are the increases in greenhouse gases doing to the earth's overall climate?

They are increasing the global temperature and causing global warming and climate change. Weather "events" (storms, heat waves, blizzards, droughts and floods) are more frequent and more intense, as there is more energy in the atmosphere.

Are climate and weather short term changes in earths greenhouse effect?
Weather is a short term change to the climate, but not to the greenhouse effect. Climate is a long term change to the weather (but not to the greenhouse effect).
What are the increasing greenhouse gases doing to the earths overall climate?
They are changing the climate. The increasing greenhouse gases are causing global warming, which is making the climate change. More heat is melting ice and raising sea levels. More heat is adding extra energy to storms. More heat is drying crop lands and causing famine.
What is a natural phenomenon that maintains earths temperature range?
The greenhouse effect
What causes the greenhouse effect and how does it affect earths atmosphere?
The greenhouse effect is caused by greenhouse gases that absorb infrared rays and thereby keep the earth warmer than it otherwise would be. The greenhouse effect is important to life on earth. Without greenhouse gases, there would be global cooling and life as we know it would no longer be possible. With increased levels of greenhouse gases, there is global warming and undesirable climate change.
Trapping of heat in the earths atmosphere by certain gases is known as the?

What effect would an increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere have on earths overall temperature?
Of course, greenhouse gases keep the Earth from being one large popsicle. The newest studies of the atmosphere indicate that the atmosphere is pretty stable, now. The reason is that nearly all of the greenhouse gases are water vapor mostly evaporated from the oceans.
How can the greenhouse effect and greenhouse gases cause problems with earths energy budget?
Earth's energy budget has been balanced for thousands of years. The natural greenhouse effect allows enough heat in and out of the atmosphere to keep it warm enough for life. Additional greenhouse gases, which we are now adding to the atmosphere and causing problems with the budget and the earth is warming up. This warming is causing climate change.
What is the source of radiation for both the earths atmosphere the greenhouse?
The sun.
What absorbs energy that is radiation from earths surface?
the greenhouse effect!
What absorbed the most energy that is radiated from earths surface?
the greenhouse
What is the source of radiation for both the earths atmosphere and greenhouse?
The sun.
