Greenhouse effect helps us in the following ways;
-concerning with agriculture supports plant growth which in turn comes our food we take. Not only food alone but new varieties have come into place due to greenhouse effect.
-not forgetting job opportunities that it has created in form of people try to learn more about climate change and its effects.
What else can I help you with?
How has the greenhouse effect affected our climate?
The enhanced greenhouse effect is happening because we are adding additional carbon dioxide and methane to the atmosphere. These greenhouse gases trap in heat from the sun making the earth warmer.
What are the effects of the greenhouse effect on the human lives?
Water vapor and other gaes including carbon dioxide that are in our atmoshere trap some of the infra-red radiation that is being reflected out into space. This means that the earth surface loses less heat to space and thus warms up.
Should you stop the greenhouse effect altogether?
The effect has been with us since the planet was formed. We would die without it. Completely stopping the greenhouse effect would require no water vapor (currently 90% of all green house gas is water vapor) and no oxygen (Oxygen turns into O3 with sunlight). However, we should certainly try to slow the enhanced greenhouse effect, which is the extra greenhouse gases that are being added to the atmosphere by human activity, mainly by burning fossil fuels. See related link below about levels of added CO2.
Why is the greenhouse so important to for life on earth?
The natural greenhouse effect has been keeping the earth warm for millions of years, allowing life to thrive on this planet. The enhanced or accelerated greenhouse effect, which is what is happening now, is causing global warming and may mean the end of life on earth if we can't slow or stop it.
What is the ability of the Earths atmosphere to trap heat and keep us warm?
The Earth's atmosphere traps heat through a process called the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and water vapor in the atmosphere absorb and trap heat radiating from the Earth's surface, keeping the planet warm enough to support life. However, human activities have increased the concentration of these gases, leading to enhanced warming known as global warming.
What do humans do to effect the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect keeps us all warm enough for life.The enhanced greenhouse effect causes global warming.
What greenhouse gases are being put in the atmosphere that is causing the US to be warmer?
Greenhouse gases, specifically:Carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuelsMethane from cattleCFCs from refrigerantsare contributing to the enhanced greenhouse effect that is making the world, as well as the US warmer.
What effect is the greenhouse effect having on your planet?
The normal greenhouse effect keeps the planet, and us, warm.the enhanced greenhouse effect, which we are having now, is causing global warming and climate change.This is happening because of our burning of fossil fuels(coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation (cutting down trees which previously removed carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere).
How have factories changed the atmosphere?
Factories have been burning coal and oil for 200 years. This has put vast amounts of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, into the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases building up, are giving us an enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
The greenhouse effect is making the earth warmer colder or windier?
The greenhouse effect is making the Earth warmer overall. This however is not apparent to the casual local observer as the changing weather patterns resulting from the same overall warming may make some areas warmer, some colder, some wetter and some drier.
Should the earth always had a greenhouse effect?
The earth has always had the greenhouse effect. It is what stops us from freezing so far away from the sun.
How has the greenhouse effect affected our climate?
The enhanced greenhouse effect is happening because we are adding additional carbon dioxide and methane to the atmosphere. These greenhouse gases trap in heat from the sun making the earth warmer.
Is the greenhouse effect keeping the earth's atmosphere warm?
Yes, the natural greenhouse effect keeps the earth's atmosphere warm enough for us to live.
What is the beautiful effect of the greenhouse effect?
The beautiful effect of the greenhouse effect is that it keeps us warm. The natural greenhouse effect is supported by the water and carbon cycles moving water and carbon in and out of the atmosphere, in balance. Without this natural effect the earth would be much colder, probably frozen, and we couldn't survive.
What are the effects of the greenhouse effect on the human lives?
Water vapor and other gaes including carbon dioxide that are in our atmoshere trap some of the infra-red radiation that is being reflected out into space. This means that the earth surface loses less heat to space and thus warms up.

How does the greenhouse effect help us?
The earth's carbon and water cycles support a natural greenhouse effect in the atmosphere where just enough of the sun's heat is kept back so that life can go on comfortably. This is how the greenhouse effect helps us.But the greenhouse effect is now turning into an "enhanced" or accelerated greenhouse effect. This is causing global warming and is not helping us.Two hundred years ago we started digging up and burning fossil fuels (for industry, transport and to make electricity). Burning fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas releases all the carbon dioxide that had been hidden underground for millions of years. We also cut down the great forests of the earth, which can take carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.These two things, burning fossil fuels and deforestation are disrupting the normal greenhouse effect, which is now becoming an enhanced greenhouse effect, caused by man.A:The sun sends light rays into the earth, but most of the light that hits the earth is reflected back into space. If carbon dioxide, along with water vapor, methane, sulfur hexafluoride, nitrous oxide, several types of chlorinated fluorocarbons and a few other gases, did not trap much of the reflected light, the earth would be so cold that no life could exist upon its surface. The trapping of the reflected light by gases is called the greenhouse effect.
