Increasing levels of carbon dioxide, resulting from human activities, are implicated in the recent rise in average global temperatures. Methane, athough in much lower atmospheric concentrations, is also implicated because it is a much more potent greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide.

What gas increases earths temperature?
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the primary gas responsible for increasing Earth's temperature through the greenhouse effect. CO2, along with other greenhouse gases, trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming and climate change.
How did earths atmosphere change?
Earths atmosphere has changed in a few ways. It contains more pollutants and carbon dioxide which is a greenhouse gas.
What is the layer where temperature increases because of ozone gas?
The temperature increases in the troposphere. It is because of greenhouse gas, ozone.
What are the componets of natural gas?
the earths surface is bound connect with the atmosphere that represents the greenhouse effect.
Why is Co2 is a greenhouse gas?
because it has the ability to trap heat, thus warming the earths atmosphere :)
What greenhouse gas produced by humans activities has dramatically increased in earths atmosphere?
CO2; Carbon Dioxide
What is a reason that the ozone near the earths surface is dangerous?
Ozone at ground level is a pollutant. It is a greenhouse gas.
What greenhouse gas used to make up most of earths early atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide, CO2
Does the Ozone elevate the temperature of the planet?
Ozone is a greenhouse gas. It absorbs radiation and increases the temperature.
Why does increasing the amount of a greenhouse gas increase the temperature of a planet?
The greenhouse gases reflect to the Earth the infrared radiation.
What happens when greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere decrease?
Green house effect causesthe temperature. temperature will decrease if gas levels down.
Which one is more harmful to the environment global warming or greenhouse gases?
Global warming is a consequence of increased greenhouse gases. The primary human generated greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide is relatively inert, and is released in such small (relative) quantities it poses no known environmental harm, outside raising earth's temperature, bleaching coral and acidifying our oceans.
