the names of green house gases are :- water vapour
carbon dioxide
methane
ozone
Any gas with three or more atomes is considered a green house gas. Water vapor makes up about 80% of all green house gas.

∙ 10y agoThere are several gases that are classed as greenhouse gases.
They are:
- water vapor
- carbon dioxide
- ozone
- methane
- nitrous oxide
- CFCs
Energy from the sun heats the earth's surface and atmosphere, which drives the earth's weather and climate. The earth's surface radiates some of this solar energy back into space. These atmospheric gases are called greenhouse gases because they help trap some of the outgoing energy, retaining heat somewhat like the glass panels of a greenhouse.

What name is given to gases which trap heat from the sun?
They are generally called Greenhouses gases, as greenhouses trap heat into the glass.
Many scientists believe the greenhouses gases?
Many scientists believe that the greenhouses gases have contributed to the climate change due to increased concentrations of the gases in the atmosphere courtesy of human activities such as deforestation, and through fossil fuels.
What gas surrounds the earth?
Many gasses surround the earth. The main gasses are Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Hydrogen. There are also very small amounts of other gasses. These gasses together make up the atmosphere.
What type of science is greenhouse gases?
Study of greenhouses gases would fall into the meteorology branch of earth science.
What are three presence of geothermal activity?
gasses
When was Rainbow Greenhouses created?
Rainbow Greenhouses was created in 1985.
What is Rainbow Greenhouses's population?
Rainbow Greenhouses's population is 150.
What type of gas do greenhouses have inside?
Greenhouses have regular air (nitrogen and oxygen gases) inside.
Where can one find lean to greenhouse designs?
Design ideas for a lean-to greenhouse can be viewed on eHow. They offer information on mini greenhouses, window lean-to greenhouses and carport lean-to greenhouses.
Why doesn't greenhouses need insects to pollinate flowers?
In short, they do. Greenhouses are not usually sealed, and insects can get in and out, and they will pollinate the flowers.
How greenhouses use energy?
Greenhouses use energy from the sun by making the plastic heat up and warm inside
Another word for greenhouses?
some other words for greenhouses are:- * glasshouse * hothouse * conservatory * pavillion * vinery * orangery
Did greenhouses exist in medieval times?
Yes. They existed in ancient Rome. Modern greenhouses reemerged in the 13th century in Italy.
What name is given to gases which trap heat from the sun?
They are generally called Greenhouses gases, as greenhouses trap heat into the glass.
I'm doing a science project and I was wondering why greenhouses use green glass?
Greenhouses usually use clear glass.
