Greenhouse gases are helpful because they keep the earth warm enough for life. Too much greenhouse gases warm the earth up too much.
In the atmosphere. The greenhouse effect refers to the situation in the atmosphere where gases hold on to the heat rising from the earth.
The greenhouse effect comes about when greenhouse gases in the atmosphere capture heat rising from the surface of the planet. As the moon has no atmosphere, it could not have a greenhouse effect. So the answer is: The earth.
Greenhouse gases are helpful because they keep the earth warm enough for life. They are essential.Too much greenhouse gases are unhelpful because they make the earth too hot. Global warming is causing climate change which may make the world very uncomfortable for our children and grandchildren.
There is a greenhouse effect on Earth because three-atomed gases in the atmosphere retain heat and ensure that the earth stays warm. Other examples of a greenhouse effect are the atmospheres of Venus and Mars. Mercury has an atmosphere but has no greenhouse effect, as the main gases (hydrogen, helium and oxygen) are not greenhouse gases. So Mercury is a non-example of the greenhouse effect. The moon is also a non-example, as it has no atmosphere at all.
Yes. The infrared radiation from the surface of the earth is captured by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This causes the greenhouse effect.
The greenhouse effect is the natural way that the Earth keeps warm. Too many extra greenhouse gases turn the greenhouse effect into an enhanced greenhouse effect. The enhanced, or accelerated, greenhouse effect is causing global warming.
Green house gases can cause great pollution to the atmoshprere and that leads to global warming and that can make life on earth extremely hard.
Yes, greenhouse gases are part of the natural greenhouse effect. The gases absorb the heat coming off the surface of the earth and become warm. This warming has kept the earth warm enough for life for millions of years.

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.
It doesn't! The greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life by keeping warm gases in the atmosphere. It has no effect on the tilt of the earth.
