Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the gas that is most commonly associated with man's contributions to the issue. We cause this by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This burning releases long stored carbon that has been underground for millions of years. We produce about 3% of this gas which has been enough to keep the planet comfortably warm for millions of years. Now, by adding the extra CO2, we are causing global warming. Some of that 3% is through processes that would naturally occur even if humans were not involved with the process.
What else can I help you with?
What does the greenhouse do to the gases from the atmosphere?
The greenhouse effect warms the gases in the atmosphere.
Which part of the greenhouse represents greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?
The glass or plastic walls of a greenhouse represent greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by trapping heat energy inside, much like how greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap heat.
How do greenhouse gases affect the earths atmosphere?
They slow the loss of heat
Name two greenhouse gases in your atmosphere?
two greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide and methane
The process by which gases hold heat in the atmosphere is called the what?
The process by which gases hold heat in the atmosphere is called the greenhouse effect. This occurs when certain gases in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun, leading to an increase in temperature on Earth. Some of the key greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor.

What contains the greenhouse gases?
Our Atmosphere.
Can greenhouse gases be turned into fertilizer?
No, they are gases that enter the atmosphere.
What greenhouse gases do in the atmosphere?
Greenhouse gases keep the earth warm.Too much greenhouse gas is causing global warming.
What do you call gases that retain heat within the atmosphere?
Greenhouse gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, contributing to the greenhouse effect and potentially leading to global warming. Examples of greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor.
How far do greenhouse gases extend into the atmosphere?
Greenhouse gases extend very high. They extend in the troposphere.
What is a direct result of having greenhouse gases in the atmosphere?
It is supposed that greenhouse gases contribute to global warming.
Where the greenhouse gases trap energy?
In the atmosphere
