No.

A gross example is Venus, which has a runaway greenhouse effect. The surface temperature is hot enough to melt lead.

When did the Greenhouse effect start?

The greenhouse effect has been a natural phenomenon on Earth for millions of years. However, human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, have significantly increased the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution, intensifying the greenhouse effect and leading to global warming.


What is a greenhouse gas containing only hydrogen and oxygen?

Water vapor is a greenhouse gas that contains only hydrogen and oxygen.


What planet has more greenhouse effect?

Venus has the most pronounced greenhouse effect in our solar system. Its thick atmosphere is composed mostly of carbon dioxide, which traps heat and creates a runaway greenhouse effect, resulting in extreme temperatures of up to 900°F (475°C) on the surface.


How does the natural greenhouse effect allow life to exist?

Natural greenhouse effect maintain the temperature of earth in night because if it will not so there will have too cold at night.carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere allows the light to come in earth surface and it allows only 10% of the light to escape out into space.


Which gas is mainly responsible for the greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect contains two different components: the natural greenhouse effect, and the enhanced greenhouse effect that results from human activities and is the cause of global warming.Water vapour is the most plentiful greenhouse gas and is mainly responsible for the natural greenhouse effect that maintains the world at a comfortable temperature suitable for human existence. Carbon dioxide also plays an important part in this natural greenhouse effect.Carbon dioxide is mainly responsible for the enhanced greenhouse effect. In this case, water vapour plays only a minor part as an enhancer, because the atmospheric concentration of it will increase if the temperature rises for other reasons, then causing a further increase in temperatures.

Why is photosynthesis the only process that can combat the greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect does not have to be combatted, as it usefully keeps the earth warm. But we have to stop the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming. The only process that can combat the enhanced greenhouse effect is photosynthesis, trees and plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.


What contributes to maintaining the temperature on Earth?

The greenhouse effect maintains the temperature on earth as it has done for millions of years. The enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming has only been happening for the past 200 years.

Do inner planets have greenhouse effect?

Only Venus and Earth have a greenhouse effect because they have a substantial atmosphere. Venus actually has a runaway greenhouse effect causing its surface temperatures to rise to 450 Celsius.


Why is the greenhouse effect caused by earth's carbon etc?

The greenhouse effect may increase on Earth because of the continuous burning of fossil fuels. These fossil fuels not only release toxic gases but also carbon dioxide, which traps the suns heat in the atmosphere.


Does the greenhouse effect only effect the Venus?

No. That's what global warming is caused by.


The greenhouse effect is affecting which planets?

Earth, Mars and Venus. The greenhouse effect is affecting planet Earth. Additionally, Venus is a perfect example of what can happen if there is too much carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses in an atmosphere. Even though it only receives a quarter of the energy from the Sun compared to Mercury, its maximum temperature is greater, making it the hottest planet in the system. The coolest point on the planet has temperatures of 380º C, or 716º F. And again, this is all due to a runaway greenhouse effect.


Does Pluto feature the runaway greenhouse effect?

Yes.(Another contributor writes:)It has a very thick atmosphere of Carbon dioxide that is thought to be a runaway greenhouse effect. Its average surface pressure due to the thick atmosphere is 93 bar, or 93 times that of Earth's. It is also the hottest planet, with surface temperatures averaging around 460°C (860°F).Yes it does, so hot that it has boiled its oceans dry.
