Radiation from the sun comes to earth in the form of ultraviolet waves. The more harmful ones are blocked by the ozone layer and the useful ones come through the atmosphere unhindered and warm the earth. This warmth then rises in the form of infrared rays. Infrared heat is trapped by greenhouse gases, so not as much heat leaves the earth as enters it.
Carbon Dioxide or CO sub 2
If your question is really about oxygen then it is false. And oxygen is not increasing in the atmosphere. If you are talking about carbon dioxide, a gas that IS increasing in the atmosphere, then it is true. Carbon dioxide is causing the speeding up of global warming.
Increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is considered a factor that increase the global warming.
No, it will not be possible to continue increasing the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere indefinitely. At some point, the results will be catastrophic.
The atmosphere contains carbon in the form of carbon dioxide, one of the greenhouse gases. Levels of this gas are increasing in the atmosphere since we began burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas).
Carbon dioxide is increasing in the atmosphere, and oxygen is decreasing.
Carbon Dioxide or CO sub 2
The burning of fossil fuels affects the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by increasing it.
An enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
Carbon dioxide is doing both these things.
Yes, plants absorb carbon dioxide which is increasing in the atmosphere.
true
A quantity of carbon dioxide dissolved in the drink is released into the atmosphere.
It will rise. The temperature of the atmosphere is rising already because carbon dioxide is increasing due to human activity.
It will rise. The temperature of the atmosphere is rising already because carbon dioxide is increasing due to human activity.
From the start of the Industrial Revolution we have been digging up and burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This burning releases carbon dioxide which has been hidden away for 300 million years, so its emission adds to the levels in the atmosphere.
