The Industrial Revolution began increasing the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere when we started burning fossil fuel.

Would there be winds if earths surface was the same temperature everywhere?

No, there would not be winds if the earth's surface was the same temperature everywhere. The reason why is because during the day the land heats up faster than the water.


What is the reason life can exist on Jupiter?

Because the temperature on the surface is simmilar to Earth's.


What is one possible reason for the rise in the average air temperature at earth's surface?

One possible reason for the rise in the average air temperature at Earth's surface is the increase in greenhouse gas emissions, such as carbon dioxide and methane, trapping more heat in the atmosphere. This enhanced greenhouse effect leads to global warming and overall higher temperatures.


What is the reason for cooling of lava on earth's surface?

1) The temperature difference between the lava an its surroundings. 2) At the surface heat can be radiated away


How would you expect the surface tension of water to be affected by increasing temperature?

surface tension of water is affected by temperature as it starts to evaporate when there is hot temperature but due to unnatural medium its surface starts to freeze when the temperature outside is cold,so this gives the reason that surface tension of water is affected by temperature.

It depends on the tile of the earth's Axis.....i think


What is the reason that ozone near the earths surface is dangerous?

Because the pollutions and the chemicals are so thick in the ozone layer, it is too dangerous for us to breath and if those chemicals and pollutant gases where to get to our surface, we'd get sick and/or die.

When the earths shadow falls on the moon?

The shadow of the Earth on the moon's surface is the reason that it takes different phases. When the Earth completely occludes the moon, it is a new moon, and when there is no shadow, it is a full moon.

What is the reason for heat transfer from one substance to another?

Heat transfer occurs from one substance to another in order to equalize their temperatures. This process happens because of the natural tendency of heat to move from areas of higher temperature to areas of lower temperature until thermal equilibrium is reached.


What is the surface tempriture of earth?

As you will know, it varies across the planet.The average temperature of Earth's surface has varied between 13.8 and 14.6 degrees Celsius (56.8 and 58.3 degrees Fahrenheit) during the period from 1950 to 1999.In the year 1999, the average global temperature was approximately 14.4 degrees Celsius (57.9 degrees Fahrenheit).The highest recorded has been 56.7oC and lowest -89oC. These temperatures are dry bulb temperatures.By comparison the core of the Earth is estimated to be between 3400oC and 7000oC, hotter than the melting point of steel (around 1500oC) The average temperature is 14° C. That's 287 kelvin, or 57.2° F.As you probably realize, that number is just an average. The Earth's temperature can be much higher or lower than this temperature. In the hottest places of the planet, in the deserts near the equator, the temperature on Earth can get as high as 57.7° C. And then in the coldest place, at the south pole in Antarctica, the temperature can dip down to -89° C.The reason the average temperature on Earth is so high is because of the atmosphere. This acts like a blanket, trapping infrared radiation close to the planet and warming it up. Without the atmosphere, the temperature on Earth would be more like the Moon, which rises to 116° C in the day, and then dips down to -173° C at night.Earth's surface temperature can varies from place to place ofcourse, the current weather also plays a huge role. Then there's the fact of global warming and the sun.All these are usually in constant change but Earth's temperature on average is about 28-34 degrees Celsius.
