well say the attmosphere was a blanket and the blanket had a hole in it. well the sunlight goes through that hole and the blanket closes the hole to were the sunlight cannot leave the attmosphere and that causes the greenhouse effect aka global warming

Thel effect of the greenhouse effect is that it keeps us warm. The natural greenhouse effect is supported by the water and carbon cycles moving water and carbon in and out of the atmosphere, in balance. Without this natural effect the earth would be much colder, probably frozen, and we couldn't survive.

What traps heat on Earth from escaping into space?
Our ozone, this is known as the greenhouse effect. Our greenhouse gases give way to the greenhouse effect by trapping heat on Earth. Some of these gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, etc. Deforestation and abundant cows lead to global warming.
What does burning fossil fuel give off?
Burning fossil fuels such as natural gas, coal, oil and gasoline raises the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and carbon dioxide is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect and global warming.
What is the greenhouse effect and how can you prevent it?
The Greenhouse Effect:Greenhouse gases, such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane etc., move in and out of the atmosphere. They trap some of the heat radiated out from the Earth that would normally move out into space. This is called the greenhouse effect. It is natural, and is caused by the earth's carbon and water cycles and the heat from the sun. Without this warming we would be a cold dead planet.The Enhanced Greenhouse Effect:Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, 260 hundred years ago, we have been burning fossil fuels, initially coal, then oil and natural gas in much greater quantities than before. Fossil fuels contain carbon that has been hidden away for millions of years. Burning fossil fuels is adding extra Carbon Dioxide to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, much more than the normal carbon cycle can manage, and is making the atmosphere and the planet warmer. Increased demand for food and red meat has led to massive deforestation for grazing land. Trees no longer act as a valuable soak or sink for carbon dioxide. More cattle mean more methane expelled into the atmosphere. Methane is a much more dangerous greenhouse gas than CO2. This process is called the enhanced, or accelerated greenhouse effect.When the sun's rays enter earth's atmosphere, but don't exit. Too much of this causes Global Warming.A: One of the main causes of Global Warming is the Green house effect. When the emission of infra-red radiation in the atmosphere warms a planet's surface, it is known as the Green House Effect. The Greenhouse effect is a natural phenomena occurring on planet EarthOne of the man-made causes of the Green House effect is deforestation. Deforestation increases the amount of carbon-dioxide in the atmosphere. Also, due to the disappearance of trees, photosynthesis cannot take place. Deforestation causes of the greenhouse effect. Deforestation is rampant today due to the increase in human civilization. The levels of deforestation have increased by about nine percent in recent times. Also, the burning of wood causes it to decay,therefore releasing more carbon-dioxide into the atmosphere.Greenhouse Gases also can be released into the atmosphere due to the burning of fossil fuels, oil, coal and gas. These materials are used increasingly and rampantly in Industries. Therefore Industries are also a major cause of the Greenhouse Effect.Carbon Dioxide and other pollutant gases in the atmosphere prevent trapped heat from escaping into space.
Is a bottle a good model of the natural greenhouse effect in the atmosphere?
Yes, cause there are different types of plants that have to have different tempuatures, climates, and stuff like that. And also there are different ways to take care of your plant, like if a plant is from Arizona, you don't give it cold and snow and tons of water, or like a plant from Wisconsin, you don't give it tons of sun and no water. That's my answer.
How are volcanic eruption useful?
because they give from something that houses can be bulit
What in the air is related to global warming?
The greenhouse gases in the air are related to global warming. Greenhouse gases cause the enhanced greenhouse effect which is causing the warmth in the earth overall. The main greenhouse gases are:Water Vapor 36 - 72% effectCarbon dioxide 9 - 26%Methane 4 - 9%Ozone 3 - 7%Nitrous OxideCFCsIt is not possible to give an exact figure for the greenhouse effect of each gas as some of the gases overlap by emitting and absorbing radiation at the same frequencies.
What are the useful and harmful effect of friction?
Useful effect of friction - automotive clutch , friction material on adjacent plates help give grip the other plate connected to drive shaft , hence allowing the friction to slowly bring the drive shaft up to speed , otherwise the motor would just stall. Or to give useful grip to tyres on the road. Harmful effect of friction - makes bearing harder to turn since friction holds on to surface between the bearing and the bearings outer surface
What do fuels give off?
Greenhouse gases and a nasty smell
what way of making electricity has the most harmful effect on the environment?
Through non-renewable resources.These give off greenhouse gases when combusted affecting the enviroment and require drilling again affecting the enviroment.
Where do you get college applications?
There are no standardized college and university applications. You must contact each individual school of interest and request an application. If you are in high school, many institutions give the guidance office applications to give to interested students.There are no standardized college and university applications.

What planet in our solar system features the runaway greenhouse effect?
Venus, the second planet from the sun, is covered in clouds and has a very high surface temperature due to its greenhouse effect.Due to an excess amount of carbon dioxide (CO2), its temperature is 460 degrees Celsius or 850 Fahrenheit or 735 Kelvin. It is the hottest planet.It has a very thick atmosphere of Carbon dioxide that is considered a runaway greenhouse effect. Its average surface pressure due to the thick atmosphere is 93 bar, or 93 times that of Earth's. It is also the hottest planet.The greenhouse effect occurs on every planet with an atmosphere (including Earth). On Venus, the runaway greenhouse effect is causing temperatures high enough to melt lead. Venus lost its oceans due to its greenhouse effect.venus
