Why is the greenhouse effect nessarcy?
The greenhouse effect is necessary because it helps regulate Earth's temperature by trapping heat from the sun in the atmosphere. Without this natural process, the planet would be much colder, making it unsuitable for sustaining life as we know it.
What process allows temperature on earth to remain within a suitable range in order for life to exist?
The greenhouse effect is the process that allows Earth's temperature to remain within a suitable range for life to exist. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor trap heat in the atmosphere, preventing it from escaping into space. This helps to maintain a stable climate and temperature on Earth.
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.
Is the greenhouse effect important?
Yes.(Another contributor wrote:)The natural greenhouse effect is important because it has been keeping the earth warm for millions of years, allowing life to thrive on this planet. It does this by trapping some of the sun's heat as it radiates back out from the surface of the earth. We would all freeze to death without it.The enhanced or accelerated greenhouse effect, which is what is happening now, is important because it is causing global warming and climate change.A:Indeed it is. Without it it is unlikely there would be life on earth.
What holds the heat on the earth?
The atmosphere of Earth is a layer of gases surrounding the planet Earth that is retained by Earth's gravity. The atmosphere protects life on Earth by absorbing ultraviolet solar radiation, warming the surface through heat retention (greenhouse effect), and reducing temperature extremes between day and night.
Why is it important for us to have a greenhouse effect on earth?
The greenhouse effect is what keeps the heat in after the light energy is converted to heat energy. If we did not have a greenhouse effect, life would no longer exist since the entire earth would be below freezing.
What does the greenhouse effect do and what would happen without it?
The earth would become very cold and life would cease to exist. A natural greenhouse effect is necessary to keep the earth warm enough for life. However, since we started seriously burning fossil fuels about 150 years ago a lot more carbon dioxide and methane has been released into the atmosphere making the earth warmer. Most climate scientists agree that the earth is gradually getting warmer.
How is the earth's greenhouse effect good for the earth?
The normal, natural greenhouse effect is good for the earth. The earth's carbon and water cycles move carbon dioxide and water vapour in and out of the atmosphere. This supports the greenhouse effect which keeps the earth warm (about 13 degrees Celsius on average) and has done for millions of years. If there was no greenhouse effect we would all freeze to death.The accelerated greenhouse effect is what is happening now because of all the extra carbon dioxide in the atmosphere because we burn fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas for industry, transport and to generate electricity. And also because we have cut down so many trees that used to soak the carbon out of the air. This is causing unbalance to the earth's carbon cycle and is causing global warming and climate change. So the enhanced, or accelerated, greenhouse effect is bad for the earth.
Is global warming another term for the greenhouse effect?
No. The greenhouse effect is the process by which certain gasses, called greenhouse gasses, help to trap heat within Earth's atmosphere. This effect has been in place for as long as Earth has had an atmosphere and is necessary for life to exist. Without it, the planet would freeze over. Global warming is primarily the result of an enhanced greenhouse effect, caused by extra geenhouse gasses entering the atmosphere.
Why is the greenhouse effect nessarcy?
The greenhouse effect is necessary because it helps regulate Earth's temperature by trapping heat from the sun in the atmosphere. Without this natural process, the planet would be much colder, making it unsuitable for sustaining life as we know it.
How long does the greenhouse effect process take?
The Greenhouse effect is an ongoing cyclic event. It takes hundreds of thousands of years for one cycle. We are currently on the sixth known warming cycle we have data on. Without this effect the planet would be very cold and dead.
What process allows temperature on earth to remain within a suitable range in order for life to exist?
The greenhouse effect is the process that allows Earth's temperature to remain within a suitable range for life to exist. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor trap heat in the atmosphere, preventing it from escaping into space. This helps to maintain a stable climate and temperature on Earth.
Who is being affected by the greenhouse effect?
All life as it could not exist without the natural greenhouse effect which has kept the planet warm for millions of years.All life now is being affected by the enhanced greenhouse effect, which is caused by the extra greenhouse gases added to the atmosphere for the past 250 years, mostly by humans burning fossil fuels. This is leading to global warming, making the earth warmer, and this warming is causing climate change.
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.
What would happen if Nitrogen and oxygen absorbed infrared radiation?
The earth would immediately become too hot for any life to exist. The oceans would become so hot they would boil, eventually evaporating, probably into space. We would have a runaway greenhouse effect.
Global warming means that green house effect is what?
The ultraviolet light from the Sun heats the Earth, like in a greenhouse. The more production of carbon dioxide, from burning coal and oil, the more rising infra-red heat gets trapped in the atmosphere. In a greenhouse, the heat gets trapped inside because of the layers of glass.
