Best Answer

Land clearing destroys trees that used to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store the carbon in their roots, trunks and branches. So land clearing means there is more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere adding to the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.

Is the enhanced greenhouse effect essential for life on earth?

The greenhouse effect is essential to life on earth. The enhanced greenhouse effect is not. In fact if it is enhanced too quickly it can be harmful to life.


What is a sentence with 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.


What is another name for enhanced greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect is the natural process by which greenhouse gases keep the earth's temperature at a comfortable level suitable for human existence. The enhanced greenhouse effect is the increase in greenhouse gases that is leading to global warming. The term "enhanced greenhouse effect" is also referred to as the "anthropogenic greenhouse effect" and is the idea that humans may have an effect on global climate. It is also referred to as the "runaway greenhouse effect".


Which single gas has the greatest impact globally on the enhanced greenhouse effect?

What do humans do to effect the greenhouse effect?

What contributes to maintaining the temperature on Earth?

Why is photosynthesis the only process that can combat the greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect does not have to be combatted, as it usefully keeps the earth warm. But we have to stop the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming. The only process that can combat the enhanced greenhouse effect is photosynthesis, trees and plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.


When did the enhanced greenhouse effect occur?

When we began to seriously burn fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) we released billions of tones of EXTRA carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This changed the natural greenhouse effect to an enhanced, or accelerated greenhouse effect.


The greenhouse effect can be enhanced by your use of fossil fuels?
