Is the greenhouse effect affecting your climate?
The greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life, but the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect is causing global warming and climate change.
How is the greenhouse effect and global warming affecting the planet?
It is affecting our planet by melting the polar ice caps which will eventually kill us all.
Where is greenhouse effect happening?
It is affecting the whole globe's climate now, especially the north and south poles.
How is the greenhouse effect affecting earth's energy balance?
The greenhouse effect prevents heat escaping into space. Increased greenhouse gas levels means that more heat is retained. This affects the balance by making the earth warmer.
The greenhouse effect is affecting which planets?
Earth, Mars and Venus. The greenhouse effect is affecting planet Earth. Additionally, Venus is a perfect example of what can happen if there is too much carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses in an atmosphere. Even though it only receives a quarter of the energy from the Sun compared to Mercury, its maximum temperature is greater, making it the hottest planet in the system. The coolest point on the planet has temperatures of 380º C, or 716º F. And again, this is all due to a runaway greenhouse effect.
What is the process by which gases in the atmosphere absorb and reradiate heat?
Greenhouse Effect
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.
The trapping of heat by a planet's atmosphere is called what?
it allows solar radiation to penetrate to the surface!
what way of making electricity has the most harmful effect on the environment?
Through non-renewable resources.These give off greenhouse gases when combusted affecting the enviroment and require drilling again affecting the enviroment.
How is greenhouse affecting us?
grows flowers in the winter
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".
Trapping of heat in the earths atmosphere by certain gases is known as the?
greenhouse effect
