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 planet has an atmosphere with a greenhouse effect?

EarthVenusMarsThe greenhouse effect occurs on every planet with an atmosphere (including Earth). On Venus, there is a runaway greenhouse effect causing temperatures high enough to melt lead.Mars has a greenhouse effect that is weak because of its thin atmosphere.


What other planets have greenhouse gases?

Two other planets besides Earth.Venus has a runaway greenhouse effect, with most of its atmosphere carbon dioxide, and a temperature of 460° Celsius.Mars has a very faint greenhouse effect, with a little carbon dioxide, but hardly any atmosphere at all.Saturn's largest moon, Titan, has a greenhouse effect, with large concentrations of methane.


Where is greenhouse effect happening?

It is affecting the whole globe's climate now, especially the north and south poles.


Does the greenhouse effect only occur on earth?

No, the greenhouse effect is a natural process that occurs on Earth and other planets with atmospheres. For example, Venus has an extreme greenhouse effect that has resulted in high surface temperatures.


Does all planets have the greenhouse effect?

The only planet that "emits" light is the Earth, from all of the artificial lamps here. Green lights would be the color of mercury vapor streetlamps, which are the bane of astronomers (light pollution) and women everywhere (because the greenish light on makeup looks ghastly).


Do inner planets have greenhouse effect?

Only Venus and Earth have a greenhouse effect because they have a substantial atmosphere. Venus actually has a runaway greenhouse effect causing its surface temperatures to rise to 450 Celsius.


Which two planets experience the green house effect?

Venus and Earth are the two planets that experience the greenhouse effect. Both planets have atmospheres that trap heat from the sun, leading to high surface temperatures as a result of this warming effect.


What planets other than earth have a greenhouse effect?

As well as Earth, two other planets have greenhouse effects.Venus has the hottest greenhouse effect, a runaway effect, with an average surface temperature of 735 K (462 °C; 863 °F), Venus' atmosphere is 96.5% carbon dioxide.Mars also has a greenhouse effect. It has a very thin atmosphere which can not store much heat. Its temperature ranges from -143° C (polar winters) to 35° C (equatorial summers).


Could the greenhouse effect occur on other planets?

The greenhouse effect is happening on any planet with greenhouse gas. Mars, as an example has greenhouse gases in it's atmosphere and has seen warming over the past hundred years similar to our warming trend. Venus, with an atmosphere of 96.5% carbon dioxide, has a runaway greenhouse effect which has caused the oceans to boil dry.


Why doesVenus have the hotest surface of all the planets?

It's "greenhouse" effect keeps all the sunlight it making it hot.


Do any outer planets have the greenhouse effect?

Yes, outer planets like Jupiter and Saturn have the greenhouse effect, but it is not as significant as on Earth due to their different compositions and much larger distances from the Sun. These planets have thick atmospheres with gases that trap heat, contributing to their overall temperatures.
