There are many gases that cause "greenhouse effects".

Water Vapour

Carbon dioxide

Methane

Nitrous Oxide

Ozone

Chloroflourocarbons (CFC's)

are just a few.

What gases cause global warming and how?

Greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and methane, mostly) cause global warming by increasing their levels in the atmosphere. This turns the benign greenhouse effect into an accelerated greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.


What natural greenhouses gases are associated with the greenhouses effect?

A greenhouse gas is a gas in the atmosphere that takes in and releases radiation. The greenhouse effect is more of a process in which radiation is emitted in different directions after being absorbed by greenhouse gases.


Why do nitrogen and oxygen do not cause the greenhouse effect?

Nitrogen and oxygen do not cause the greenhouse effect because they are not greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor have properties that enable them to absorb and emit infrared radiation, trapping heat in the earth's atmosphere. Nitrogen and oxygen, although abundant in our atmosphere, do not have the same ability to trap heat in the same way.


What does the greenhouse do to the gases from the atmosphere?

The greenhouse effect warms the gases in the atmosphere.


What are the infrared dangers?

The danger is, if the infrared is trapped by atmospheric gases it can cause greenhouse effect.

What is a sentence with greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect is the natural way that the Earth keeps warm. Too many extra greenhouse gases turn the greenhouse effect into an enhanced greenhouse effect. The enhanced, or accelerated, greenhouse effect is causing global warming.


How does the Greenhouse effect cause a change in the earth axis tilt angle?

It doesn't! The greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life by keeping warm gases in the atmosphere. It has no effect on the tilt of the earth.


What gases cause a greenhouse effect on planets?

The main gases that cause a greenhouse effect on planets are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and water vapor (H2O). These gases trap heat in the atmosphere by absorbing and re-emitting infrared radiation, leading to an increase in the planet's temperature.
