An increased greenhouse effect and the depletion of the ozone layer are two examples of?
processes triggered by human activities that have impacted the natural balance of the Earth's atmosphere. by shamel hutchinson
When were the two meetings on the greenhouse effect held?
There have been thousands of meetings.
WHAT which two elements effect climate?
Greenhouse gases and water pollution.
What are the two main causes of global warming?
Man's burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which releases long-hidden carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.Man's deforestation. The great forests of the world used to absorb and store much of the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.The extra CO2 is turning the natural greenhouse effect into an accelerated greenhouse effect, causing global warming.
What two things keep your atmosphere warm?
The natural greenhouse effect, helped by greenhouse gases and the carbon and water cycles of the earth keep the atmosphere warm. Greenhouse gases keep back some of the sun's heat so it doesn't radiate back out to space. This has kept the earth warm for millions of years.
What is the another term for the greenhouse effect?
Global warming, but the two terms are not the same.The natural greenhouse effect keeps the planet warm.The enhanced greenhouse effect causes global warming.Global warming causes climate change.
What are the two types of greenhouse effect?
The natural greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life.The enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect (caused by burning fossil fuels and deforestation) leads to global warming and climate change.(There is also the very dangerous runaway greenhouse effect that happened on Venus.)
Which gas is mainly responsible for the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect contains two different components: the natural greenhouse effect, and the enhanced greenhouse effect that results from human activities and is the cause of global warming.Water vapour is the most plentiful greenhouse gas and is mainly responsible for the natural greenhouse effect that maintains the world at a comfortable temperature suitable for human existence. Carbon dioxide also plays an important part in this natural greenhouse effect.Carbon dioxide is mainly responsible for the enhanced greenhouse effect. In this case, water vapour plays only a minor part as an enhancer, because the atmospheric concentration of it will increase if the temperature rises for other reasons, then causing a further increase in temperatures.

What is meant by the term greenhouse effect listing the three most significant greenhouse gases?
The term "greenhouse effect" is made up of two different effects: "Natural and Man-made". There is a "natural" greenhouse effect that keeps the Earth's climate warm and habitable. There is also the "man-made" greenhouse effect, which is the enhancement of Earth's natural greenhouse effect by the addition of greenhouse gases from the burning of fossil fuels (mainly petroleum, coal, and natural gas). The three most significant green houses gases and the amount they contribute are water vapor (80%), carbon dioxide (6%) and methane (1%). Nature produces 99.7% of all green house gas emissions.

What is responsible for the greenhouse effect?
There are naturally occurring components of the atmosphere that are responsible for the greenhouse effect. The highest ranked greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide which accounts for 80% of the greenhouse effect.
When were the two meetings on the greenhouse effect held?
There have been thousands of meetings.
WHAT which two elements effect climate?
Greenhouse gases and water pollution.
Should we try to totally eliminate the greenhouse effect?
Even if it were possible, we should not try to eliminate the greenhouse effect entirely - the result would be for temperatures to fall well below freezing and make it difficult for humans to survive. We need the natural greenhouse effect that keeps the world at a comfortable temperature suitable for human existence. It is probably too late now to eliminate the enhanced greenhouse effect resulting from two centuries of human activities that poured carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere. What we can and should do is to begin now to reduce our further emissions of greenhouse gaes, so that later in this century we can eliminate any anthropogenic addition to the greenhgouse effect.

Why can you not eliminate the green house effect totally?
The greenhouse effect must be discussed in two settings - the natural case and the enhanced (or manmade) greenhouse effect. The natural greenhouse effect keeps the planet at a stable temperature which is considerably warmer than that of a ball of rock at the Earth's distance from the sum. This has allowed the Earth to have liquid oceans and life. Eliminating this effect entirely would make the Earth unpleasant and uninhabitable. The enhanced or man made greenhouse effect is changing the speed at which the climate is changing. This can create a number of problems such as changes in weather patterns, affect the severity of storms, and allow the migration of growing zones for plants and animals. This portion of the effect is subject to control attempts to minimize problems with the quality of human life (famine, disease, drought and lifestyle)
