Yes, radiation can have harmful effects on birds, as it can disrupt their biological processes, impair reproduction, and lead to increased mortality rates. Studies have shown that exposure to high levels of radiation can cause genetic mutations, behavioral changes, and reduced immune function in bird populations. Additionally, birds that inhabit or migrate through contaminated areas may face elevated risks from radiation exposure. Overall, the impact of radiation on birds varies depending on the level and duration of exposure.

The Sun is the primary source of radiation for both the Earth's atmosphere and the greenhouse effect. Solar radiation enters the atmosphere, warms the Earth's surface, and is re-radiated as infrared radiation. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere trap some of this infrared radiation, leading to the greenhouse effect.
Radiation can excite an electron sufficiently for the electron to leave the atom, thus having an ionizing effect.
the radiation can cause the brain damage so it is really hamful.

There are three types of heat transfers: conduction, convection and radiation. The heat transfer caused by the greenhouse effect is radiation.
The gas that absorbs infrared radiation and contributes to the greenhouse effect is carbon dioxide (CO2).
Trees effect trees by giving them food.
