Yes!
We can make the greenhouse effect warmer by continuing to burn fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and continue with deforestation (cutting down trees which previously removed carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere).
We can reduce the warming of the greenhouse effect by moving to renewable energy (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass and biofuel). If we can stop burning fossil fuels, then we have a chance!
Easy things you can do to reduce the warming:
Car share
Take a shower instead of a bath
Walk if something is quite near to you
Grow your own vegetables
Don't go abroad as often but go to places where you live.
We can stop contributing to it by preventing carbon dioxide and methane from being released into the atmosphere.
To do this many people believe there will have to be a serious change in our standard of living. Millions of people around the world manage without air conditioning and TVs in every room.
Weather is a short term change to the climate, but not to the greenhouse effect. Climate is a long term change to the weather (but not to the greenhouse effect).
The natural greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life. The enhanced greenhouse effect is causing global warming.
The greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life, but the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect is causing global warming and climate change.
We could change the greenhouse effect in the future by planting billions of fast-growing trees. This would remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and the enhanced greenhouse effect that we have now would slow down.
Greenhouse Effect

Yes, the enhanced, or accelerated greenhouse effect, is causing global warming, which is causing climate change.
The greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life, but the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect is causing global warming and climate change.
It would make the greenhouse effect stronger.
We could change the greenhouse effect in the future by planting billions of fast-growing trees. This would remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and the enhanced greenhouse effect that we have now would slow down.
Global warming, but the two terms are not the same.The natural greenhouse effect keeps the planet warm.The enhanced greenhouse effect causes global warming.Global warming causes climate change.
The earth would freeze. The normal greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life.The enhanced, or accelerated greenhouse effect is now causing global warming and climate change.
The natural greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm enough for life.The enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect (caused by burning fossil fuels and deforestation) leads to global warming and climate change.(There is also the very dangerous runaway greenhouse effect that happened on Venus.)
Greenhouse Effect
The natural greenhouse effect keeps the planet warm enough for life. The enhanced greenhouse effect, which is what is happening because of global warming, is causing the earth to get warmer. This extra heat is causing climate change.
Yes. When we started burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and cutting down the great forests of the worldd (deforestation), the normal greenhouse effect began to change into the accelerated, or enhanced greenhouse effect which we now have.
