If it weren't for the Greenhouse Effect, the Earth would be very cold. But it is only good to a certain point. We humans are throwing high levels of greenhouse gases into the air that is causing what we have labeled Global Warming.

Yes, greenhouse gases are beneficial in some ways. They have kept the earth warm enough for life for millions of years. But too much greenhouse gas, as is happening now from our burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, means that the atmosphere is becoming too warm. This is not beneficial.

Without greenhouse gases, the Earth would be freezing, but too much greenhouse gases, as it is right now, would cause our planet to heat up and slowly melt, in simple words.

Greenhouse gases have kept the earth comfortably warm for millions of years. Without them we would all be dead.

The beneficial effect of greenhouse gases is that they have kept the earth warm for many thousands of years. They hold heat rising from the earth and prevent it escaping into space.

How water vapour as a greenhouse gas contributes to the greenhouse effect?

Water vapour is a greenhouse gas that traps heat rising from the surface of the earth. In doing so it contributes to the natural greenhouse effect.


Is ozone a greenhouse gas?

Yes, ozone is a greenhouse gas. Any gas with three or more atoms in their molecule are greenhouse gases.


What is necessary for a planet to have a greenhouse effect?

Gas


How does the greenhouse effect pollute your ozone layer?

It doesn't. Ozone is a greenhouse gas.


Which single gas has the greatest impact globally on the enhanced greenhouse effect?

Carbon dioxide is the gas that is having the greatest impact on the enhanced greenhouse effect.


What is the primary gas in the atmosphere responsible for the greenhouse effect?

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.


What major greenhouse gas is not contributing to the current increase in the greenhouse effect?

Water (vapor).


What is necessary for a planet to have the greenhouse effect?

Gas and/or Atmosphere


Is the main atmospheric gas responsible for the greenhouse effect carbon dioxide?

The normal greenhouse effect which keeps the earth warm enough for life is caused largely by water vapour, with a small effect from carbon dioxide and methane.However, the greenhouse gas responsible for the present enhanced greenhouse effect is carbon dioxide, yes.


Is natural gas the major cause of the greenhouse effect?

In terms of greenhouse effect, natural gas is more benign than coal or oil, because it provides a greater heating effect per unit of carbon dioxide produced. It is therefore not the major cause of the greenhouse effect.


How are ozone and greenhouse alike?

Ozone is a greenhouse gas. However there is little connection between the greenhouse effect and the ozone layer.


Which is the common greenhouse gas in the atmosphere?

The most common greenhouse gas responsible for the natural greenhouse effect is water vapour. Man has no control over its levels. When it gets too high, it falls as rain.The most common greenhouse gas responsible for the accelerated greenhouse effect is carbon dioxide (CO2), the high levels of which we are responsible for. CO2 is having the largest effect on the recent increases in global temperature.
