They are not the same.
The greenhouse effect is the natural way the earth keeps enough heat for life by using a small amount of greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4).
Global warming is what is happening because by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and destroying forests, man has almost doubled the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Yes they do share the same effect. Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases. These greenhouse gases block the temperature to troposphere. Thus heat cannot escape to Stratosphere.No
Strictly speaking there is no other name for global warming."The whole earth heating up" might be another name.Global warming is causing climate change, so many people think they are both the same, so they say:"Climate change is another name for global warming", but they are not really the same.
Global warming The increase in the average surface temperature in the world with an increase in the amount of carbon dioxide, methane, and some other gases in the atmosphere. These gases are called greenhouse gases because they contribute to the heating of the Earth's surface atmosphere, a phenomenon known as global warming.bit.ly3vN0fl
The process of global warming, that is the recent warming over the past 200 years since we began to seriously burn fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), is notcrucial to earth. In fact it is extremely dangerous.The greenhouse effect, which has kept the earth warm enough for life for millions of years is crucial to earth. But the greenhouse effect is not the same as global warming.
No, we need a little bit of global warming, the same amount that we have had for millions of years. The natural greenhouse effect keeps just enough heat in the atmosphere to do this. Unfortunately, we started burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and the carbon dioxide (CO2) released is causing the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is resulting in global warming.
The greenhouse effect is making the Earth warmer overall. This however is not apparent to the casual local observer as the changing weather patterns resulting from the same overall warming may make some areas warmer, some colder, some wetter and some drier.
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.
Global warming is the same thing as greenhouse effects. They trap a lot of heat and lets the remaining heat get away into space. Therefore, global warming heats up the Earth making it warmer.
Global Warming is a serous issue weather it be man made or natural. The Greenhouse effect and Global Warming are basically the same thing. When you drive your car or when leaves fall to the ground and decay they release a gas compound call Co2. The Co2 thickens the atmosphere letting less and less of the suns light energy escape back into space. A greenhouse works much like this but it insted of gases it uses glass the trap the suns energy.
Most people believe in the greenhouse effect, which is how the earth has kept warm enough for life for millions of years. Some people don't believe that global warming is happening. These (sweepingly) are sometimes the same people who do not trust their government and who do not believe that smoking causes cancer.
Greenhouse gases are very insulating, so when they float up to the atmosphere, they insulate the world. Sunlight and heat goes in through them, but more goes in than goes out. So gradually all the heat is being built up in the world. They are called greenhouse gases because they have the same effect on the Earth that a greenhouse has on the plants inside: it lets heat in but not out. This is what is causing global warming.
They are similar. The greenhouse effect is more of what causes global warming. The greenhouse effect is a build up of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the upper atmosphere. This (mostly) carbon dioxide (CO2) acts similarly to the glass roof of a green house. Light passes through CO2 (because it's a clear gas) and hits the ground. The atoms in the ground absorb light, and some of their electrons jump to higher energy electron shells. Later, these same electrons fall back to their original positions, or stable state, and re-radiate heat energy (well it's really infrared light, but that translated into heat when it hits something). Under normal conditions, most of this infrared light can escape the atmosphere. However, carbon dioxide happens to be one of the substances that reflects infrared light. This traps heat in the earth, preventing it from escaping into space, and heating up the earth.While above is the greenhouse effect, global warming is the result of the greenhouse effect. Global warming is basically the heating of the earth on a world wide scale. This will damage environments, alter oceanic currents, kill many animal species and alter our air currents.Depending on where you live, you could experience more snow, or extreme drought. In New York, we have had more snow than I can ever remember because warmer ground actually increases the chance of snow. You see upward air drafts, caused by relatively warm air, lift evaporated water high into the atmosphere, where it undergoes adiabatic expansion and cools. As it cools, it sublimes to form snow. Global warming causes more warm upward air-drafts, therefore causing more snow. This is why global warming is now being called global climate change, because it does not necessarily make certain areas warmer, due to changes in air and water currents.
