Three natural sources of greenhouse gases include volcanic eruptions, which release carbon dioxide and other gases; wetlands, which produce methane through the decomposition of organic material in anaerobic conditions; and forest fires, which emit carbon dioxide and other pollutants as vegetation burns. Additionally, oceans play a role by absorbing and releasing carbon dioxide, contributing to the overall greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. These sources are part of the Earth's natural carbon cycle.

What are 3 natural light sources?
The sun, the moon, and stars are three natural light sources.
How is earth affected by greenhouse gases?
Greenhouse gases stop heat from escaping the atmosphere. This natural greenhouse effect has kept our planet warm for millions of years. The earth's carbon and water cycles move carbon dioxide and water vapor in and out of the atmosphere constantly.Greenhouse gases (any gas with 3 or more atoms) will trap the sun's infrared radiation (heat) being radiated by the Earth's surface, and prevent it from escaping back into space. This heat from the warmed up gases is also re-radiated in all directions, including back down to the earth's surface, which warms some more.At present man-made greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane, are causing an accelerated greenhouse effect. The natural carbon cycle is unable to cope with the extra CO2 which remains in the atmosphere gathering heat, and causing global warming.A:The more greenhouse gases there are, the worse the heating gets.
What are 3 causes of ozone damage?
There are many causes of ozone damage. Some of them are UV, Greenhouse gases and CFC's.
What are 3 advantages of tidal energy?
Does not require fuel to run. 2) Environmental friendly and does not produce any greenhouse gases. 3) Maintenance is low on cost.
What are three natural light sources?
The 3 best and simplest ones are the moon,lightning and the sun.
Identify three natural phenomenons that affect the ozone layer?
There are various phenomenon. 3 natural are UV rays, Greenhouse Gases, Volcanic Eruptions.
Which energy source contributes the most to climate change?
:) the answer is coal.. <3 kymmie
What in the air is related to global warming?
The greenhouse gases in the air are related to global warming. Greenhouse gases cause the enhanced greenhouse effect which is causing the warmth in the earth overall. The main greenhouse gases are:Water Vapor 36 - 72% effectCarbon dioxide 9 - 26%Methane 4 - 9%Ozone 3 - 7%Nitrous OxideCFCsIt is not possible to give an exact figure for the greenhouse effect of each gas as some of the gases overlap by emitting and absorbing radiation at the same frequencies.
Why do nitrogen and oxygen do not cause the greenhouse effect?
Nitrogen and oxygen do not cause the greenhouse effect because they are not greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor have properties that enable them to absorb and emit infrared radiation, trapping heat in the earth's atmosphere. Nitrogen and oxygen, although abundant in our atmosphere, do not have the same ability to trap heat in the same way.

What are 3 relevant properties of fuels?
For fossil fuels: - release heat by burning and are invaluable sources of energy - release carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen and sulfur oxides, water vapours during burning - they are a source of greenhouse gases and pollution
What are 3 advantages of tidal energy?
Does not require fuel to run. 2) Environmental friendly and does not produce any greenhouse gases. 3) Maintenance is low on cost.
How do power stations powered by fossil fuels increase global warming?
Fossil fuel (coal, oil and natural gas) contains carbon that has been kept out of the earth's carbon cycle for millions of years. The earth has a natural greenhouse effect which has kept the temperature comfortable for man during that time. We are now (since the Industrial Revolution 200 years ago) burning more and more fossil fuel in power stations (as well as in other places). This extra carbon dioxide (CO2) is adding to the CO2 normally in the atmosphere and causing an enhanced, or accelerated greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect happens because greenhouse gases (any gas with at least 3 atoms) stop some of the sun's infrared radiation escaping out to space. The gases use the captured energy to produce heat. More and more of the greenhouse gases means more and more heat, all over the planet. Global warming of the planet.
What are the 3 most important gases in the troposphere?
The three most important gases in the troposphere are nitrogen (N2), oxygen (O2), and water vapor (H2O). These gases play crucial roles in supporting life, weather patterns, and the greenhouse effect.
