What action would most likely increase the greenhouse effected?

Decreasing the amount of acid rain by increasing smoke pollution would increase the greenhouse effect. Adding carbon would not do it . . . it is already at its maximum effective amount. (Carbon may go up, but it will not increase the greenhouse effect.) Adding more water vapor would do it, but the only way to get more water in the air is to add more heat or wind to the air. Did you know that, without the greenhouse effect on Earth, that you and every other living thing would die from overheating and from ultraviolet light damage to skin tissues.


Why does the greenhouse effect on Mars not diminish?

There is a greenhouse effect on Mars, but a small one. With all that Carbon Dioxide in Mars' atmosphere (96.5%), you might expect to find a runaway greenhouse effect like that on Venus, but it is not the case. The atmospheric density on Mars is so low that the carbon dioxide creates only a minor greenhouse effect. And Mars is so cold that clouds of dry ice (frozen CO2) and some water crystals drift about in the Martian atmosphere.


Does the greenhouse effect have a positive or negative effect on us?

The greenhouse effect was made to have a positive effect, but human activities have made it a negative one. a) The greenhouse effect was made to keep the Earth's average temperature (14oC or 57oF) the same. The atmosphere has small amounts of greenhouse gases to trap heat and warm the Earth. Without this greenhouse effect, the Earth's temperature could be as low as -18oC (-0.4oF). So the greenhouse effect assures us we won't freeze to death. b) On the negative side, this Greenhouse effect slowly but steadily increases the temperature of the world! Our Earth is getting hotter and hotter every year. Ice in the North is melting and the polar bears and other dwellers of the cold are losing their homes quickly. The greenhouse effect WAS supposed to simply keep the Earth at the same temperature. But carbon dioxide (CO2) levels and other greenhouse gases are increasing in the ozone layer and trap more heat because we have invented the car, burned fossil fuels in factories, burned wood as campfires, and cut down the forests. As we continue to release these gases, the Earth will rapidly get hotter.


How does photosynthesis moderate the greenhouse effect?

As far as CO2 is involved, Photosynthesis is by far and away the Best method of carbon capture and STORAGE [within Earth's Soil] that We Possess; and this [as well as any, every and all forms of ] Removal of CO2 from Our paper thin Atmosphere is what We Desire Most.


How can you slow the greenhouse effect for global warming?

There is a natural greenhouse effect, supported by the earth's water and carbon cycles, that has kept our planet comfortably warm for millions of years.The greenhouse effect for global warming, or the runaway greenhouse effect, is happening now because we are burning fossil fuels, more and more every day. This burning releases the carbon that has been kept underground, again for millions of years. This extra carbon dioxide adds to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The natural carbon cycle can't keep up with all the extra carbon, and we have also cut down great forests all over the world that used to absorb carbon, so this is causing the runaway greenhouse effect.We can slow it by cutting down our use of fossil fuels by making green choices in our transport (walk, cycle, public transport) and by reducing our use of electricity, most of which is generated by burning coal, oil and natural gas. Turning off lights, adjusting our heating and cooling, turning off appliances at the wall and not on stand-by, will all help a little, especially if millions of people do it!Ideas are Rich and Varied; Ideas for Solutions are Sparse; Solutions are to date both negligent and negligible.

What is the greenhouse effect in a way a child can understand?

Gases like the air we breathe float up into the sky all around us. Some of these gases are good at catching the heat from the sun. We call them greenhouse gases and the main one is the carbon gas. They stay around and keep the earth warm. This is called the greenhouse effect and it is a good thing. We have had the natural greenhouse effect since before humans started living on earth.But now a bad thing is happening. Every time a factory uses its machines, or we drive a car or a truck, or even use electricity in our homes, people have to burn coal or oil to make it all happen. And burning coal and oil puts too much of these greenhouse gases into the air.Another mistake was cutting down too many trees. Trees and bushes can suck in that carbon gas and store it safely inside the wood. So now there are not enough trees to suck in the carbon any more.So because of these two things, burning oil, and cutting down trees, the natural greenhouse effect that we used to have has turned into the runaway greenhouse effect getting faster and faster. This is making the earth too warm.


Why are winter warmer every year?

Human reason, the greenhouse gas that is CO2-based (methane, HCFCs, etc.) have more and more emissions. and trees were severely damaged, resulting in reducing the absorption of CO2. Therefore, the carbon dioxide is increasing, which forms the greenhouse effect, global climate become warming. so winter are warmer every year.

When does the global warming happens?

it happens every day because a lot of greenhouse gas is produced every day.when greenhouse gas is released into the air, it goes into the atmosphere. when heat from the sun hits the o-zone layer some go through it and some bounces off. greenhouse gas traps the heat, making the earth hotter every day


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
