What are the global heating gases?

I guess you mean: what are the major greenhouse gasses?Greenhouse gasses are those who contribute to the increase in temperature of the earth's atmosphere.The main gasses are:water vaporcarbon dioxide (CO2)nitrous oxidemethaneozoneSee the link below for a more comprehensive explanation of the Greenhouse Effect.


Do portable computers create greenhouse gases?

By charging the devices, yes greenhouse gasses are emited due to the way that more electricity is created. The devices them selves do not directly create greenhouse gasses that can be measured. Each time the battery is charged and discharged very minor amounts of CO2 are released. However a single houseplant would easily take care of all of the CO2 created by most portable devices in a household.


Why does pollution causes tornadoes and global warming?

Pollution does not cause tornadoes, but some forms of pollution contribute to global warming. Certain gasses, called greenhouse gasses, including carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen oxides, and chlorfluorocarbons are released by various natural and human processes. Earth is warmed by electromagnetic radiation (light, ultraviolet, infrared etc.) from the sun. The warmed Earth then radiates some of this energy back as infrared radiation. Greenhouse gasses absorb some of this infrared radiation, preventing it from escaping back into space. A certain level of greenhouse gasses is essential; without them Earth would freeze. However, burning fossil fuels and various industrial and agricultural processes release additional greenhouse gasses. The higher concentration increases the amound of infrared absrobed, thus increasing overall temperatures. Some have proposed that global warming is causing tornadoes to become more frequent or more violent, but there is no real evidence behind this claim.

What gas comes from fertilizers?

Decomposition of organic matter produces carbon dioxide and methane. This is what produces most of the greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere not attributable to water vapor. Man is estimated to be responsible for about 11% of all greenhouse gasses. But this percentage seems to be more than the natural balance can handle.

How do greenhouse gases warm the lower atmosphere?

Greenhouse gasses harm the Earth because they pollute the air and makes our atmosphere thinner. When that happens, it is letting more and more heat in our Earth that drought will happen and water will be lost.


What special things can fire do?

For example, make lots of energy by burning stuff. But also it causes more greenhouse gasses which pollutes our planet:)

What greenhouse gases do watermelon produce?

Some people want to convert old discarded fruits and rinds into ethanol. This can be mixed into gasoline for cars. When you burn it, it produces carbon dioxide, our most infamous greenhouse gas. This produces more greenhouse gas because we are burning the fruit instead of letting it rot and become buried safely in the ground.
