The principal greenhouse gases are methane and carbon dioxide.
Methane naturally results from the digestive processes of cattle and the anarobic decomposition of organic material. This latter cause is becoming more of a concern as the permafrost of the arctic regions is thawing and releasing more methane from centuries of decomposition. Industrial activities like oil well and gas well drilling operation and processing also release methane
Carbon dioxide is released by the combustion of coal and hydrocarbons by industry, home heating and transportation. This is coupled witha decrease in forest cover which was a carbon sink.
The greenhouse effect warms the gases in the atmosphere.
two greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide and methane
the two major gases that cause greenhouse gases are methane and carbon dioxideco2, methene, evaporates
If there were no greenhouse gases the earth could not support life. Greenhouse gases are naturally occurring and allow heat to be retained within the atmosphere.
The glass
The greenhouse gases contribute to the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases are inescapable.
Oxygen is not a greenhouse gas. It deceases the greenhouse gases.
Greenhouse gases must have three atoms, so gases like hydrogen (H2) and Oxygen (O2) are not greenhouse gases.
The glass on the greenhouse stops temperature from leaving or entering like the gases do to the earth.The atmospheric gases are called 'greenhouse gases' based on the idea that the gases 'trap' heat like the walls of a greenhouse do
The greenhouse effect warms the gases in the atmosphere.
Greenhouse gases are naturally occurring gases but by increasing the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere we are contributing to global warming.
Yes. The greenhouse gases trap the sun's heat.
Greenhouse gases keep the earth warm.Too much greenhouse gas is causing global warming.
Water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone and nitrous oxide. They are known as 'greenhouse gases'.
Non-greenhouse gases are all gases except the greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are those that can absorb and emit infrared radiation.The most abundant greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are:Water vapor (H2O)Carbon dioxide (CO2)Methane (CH4)Nitrous oxide (N2O)Ozone (O3)CFCs
two greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide and methane
CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) are greenhouse gases. They also destroy ozone.
