Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Carbon dioxide is the main greenhouse gas. It also causes global warming.
The greenhouse effect causes the extreme temperatures. The greenhouse gas is mainly carbon dioxide and gaseous sulphuric acid.
carbon dioxide (CO2)
Yes, carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that contributes to the greenhouse effect. Excess carbon dioxide in the atmosphere traps heat from the Earth's surface, leading to a warming effect known as global warming.
No, carbon dioxide (CO2) is NOT an effect of the greenhouse effect. It is one of the causes. With other greenhouse gases it is responsible for the natural greenhouse effect, and the extra levels of CO2 from burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, are causing the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is why global warming is happening.
major greenhouse effect is caused by carbon dioxide
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.
Water Vapor is the gas that is largely responsible for the natural greenhouse effect that has warmed the earth for millions of years.Carbon dioxide is the gas that is largely responsible for the present accelerated greenhouse effect that is causing global warming.
Nitrogen is not considered a greenhouse gas because it does not absorb or emit infrared radiation, which is necessary for a gas to contribute to the greenhouse effect.
Gas
The gas that absorbs infrared radiation and contributes to the greenhouse effect is carbon dioxide (CO2).
It doesn't. Ozone is a greenhouse gas.
