Unfortunately the enhanced greenhouse effect has not improved. Carbon dioxide and methane levels are continuing to rise, with the rise in carbon dioxide levels actually rising at an exponential rate. The one small piece of good news is that methane levels are currently rising at a much slower rate than they had been. There is hope that we can also slow the rise in the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide, but only if we as individuals do more, and our governments develop the political courage to take the action they know must sooner or later be taken.

When did the Greenhouse effect start?

The greenhouse effect has been a natural phenomenon on Earth for millions of years. However, human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, have significantly increased the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution, intensifying the greenhouse effect and leading to global warming.


Trapping of heat in the earths atmosphere by certain gases is known as the?

greenhouse effect


Does the greenhouse effect result from human activity?

Yes. Humans have been burning fossil fuels since the beginning of the Industrial Age (1750s). This releases long-held carbon dioxide that has been sequestered away for 300 thousand years. This extra greenhouse gas is changing the greenhouse effect into an enhanced greenhouse effect, which is getting warmer and warmer.


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.


How do you use The greenhouse effect in a sentence?

the greenhouse effect is a global phenomenon.


What planet most affected by greenhouse effect?

Mars where no human has ever been.


Are scientist sure that the greenhouse effect causes warming of air?

Yes, all scientists accept the premise that the greenhouse effect keeps the planet warm. This has been happening since life began. Most scientists are confident that the enhanced greenhouse effect, where we have increased the amount of greenhouse gas in the air, is causing global warming.


What do humans do to effect the greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect keeps us all warm enough for life.The enhanced greenhouse effect causes global warming.


The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called what?

The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called the greenhouse effect. This occurs when gases like carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere trap heat radiating from the planet's surface, leading to a warming effect.


How is global warming working?

The greenhouse effect is the trapping of heat by certain gases that have been identified as helping retain heat on our planet. The runaway greenhouse effect is causing global warming.


The natural situation in which heat is retained by the atmosphere is the?
