Average global temperatures rose by around 0.75 degrees during the twentieth century. The Kyoto Protocol set a target of limiting further rises to no more than 2 degrees Celsius, but the International Energy Agency now says that this target is no longer achievable.
Because greenhouse gases capture heat rising from the surface of the earth and keep it in the atmosphere. The warmer atmosphere keeps the earth warmer and the heat is extra energy which affects the climate.
The heat cannot escape easily in a greenhouse because the glass or plastic walls trap the heat inside by allowing sunlight to enter and then preventing the warm air from leaving. This creates a greenhouse effect, where the interior of the greenhouse becomes warmer than the outside environment.
It is possible to fix the problem of global warming, but it is also very expensive. Whether we as a species will choose to make that investment, remains to be seen. Lots of people would prefer to just allow the planet to get warmer.
The greenhouse effect is causing an imbalance in Earth's energy budget by trapping excess heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming. Increased levels of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, are enhancing this effect and contributing to climate change by altering temperature patterns, weather systems, and sea levels.
The impact the greenhouse effect have on temperature is to increase the chance of global warming. If you burn too many woods, carbondioxide layer forms at the outer space of earth and that carbondioxide gas stops the radiation. It basically stops the heat from going to space, instead it will reflect the heat backagain to earth and that cause global warming because the earth gets warmer.
The natural greenhouse effect keeps the planet warm enough for life. The enhanced greenhouse effect, which is what is happening because of global warming, is causing the earth to get warmer. This extra heat is causing climate change.
The greenhouse effect is called that becouse the earth naturally acts like a greenhouse but with the gases (like CO2) going up into the air, the barrier around the earth that acts like a greenhouse, makes the barrier stronger and that makes the earth get more warmer. So...The more greenhouse gases we produce the warmer the earths temperture would be
Yes. Humans have been burning fossil fuels since the beginning of the Industrial Age (1750s). This releases long-held carbon dioxide that has been sequestered away for 300 thousand years. This extra greenhouse gas is changing the greenhouse effect into an enhanced greenhouse effect, which is getting warmer and warmer.
The greenhouse effect is when gases get trapped inside the earths atmosphere and cannot get out so the sun heats them up and the earth gets warmer. just like a greenhouse
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.
gets warmer - it shouldnt but does due to the greenhouse effect etc.
The natural greenhouse effect is not raising sea levels, but the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming, is. The warmer atmosphere is melting glaciers and expanding the water in the oceans, so sea levels are rising.
The greenhouse effect makes Earth's surface temperature about 33°C (59.4°F) warmer than it would be without it. This effect is essential for maintaining temperatures on Earth that can support life.
A greenhouse, or a glasshouse in a garden keeps the air inside warmer. Gardeners use greenhouses to grow fruit etc in cold climates. It gives its name to the greenhouse effect because greenhouse gases retain the sun's heat and keep the earth warm.
