Carbon dioxide (CO2) traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere by absorbing and re-emitting infrared radiation. This process enhances the greenhouse effect, leading to warming of the planet's surface temperatures. Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, have increased the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, amplifying this warming effect.

How CO2 can make air hotter?
CO2 contributes to global warming by trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere through the greenhouse effect. When sunlight reaches the Earth's surface, it is reflected back as infrared radiation. CO2 absorbs and re-emits some of this radiation, preventing it from escaping into space, which leads to an increase in atmospheric temperatures. This process results in a warmer climate and can contribute to climate change.
Why is Venus hotter then earth?
Two reasons I know of; Venus is closer to the Sun than the Earth is. Venus has a very thick CO2 atmosphere that captures much of the solar heat.
What is hotter surface of sun or core of earth?
Surface of the sun is hotter.
Is the Earth's core hotter than the Earth's crust?
Yes, the Earth's core is much hotter than the Earth's crust. The temperature of the Earth's outer core ranges from 4400 to 6100 degrees Celsius, while the temperature at the Earth's crust varies from around 200 to 400 degrees Celsius.
Is it hotter underground?
Yes, it is generally hotter underground compared to the Earth's surface. The temperature increases with depth due to geothermal heat from the Earth's core. The increase in temperature is dependent on factors such as location and depth.
How many earths would make the sun hotter?
Supposedly, the Earth's core is hotter than the surface of the Sun.So, IF the two collided, the material of the Earth's core would make the Sun hotter, at least until or as the material is burned or converted into the Sun's energy. In this theory, only 1 Earth would make the Sun hotter.
Why is Venus hotter then earth?
Two reasons I know of; Venus is closer to the Sun than the Earth is. Venus has a very thick CO2 atmosphere that captures much of the solar heat.
Is earth hotter or colder than earth?
hotter
How does carbondioxi make the world hotter?
Carbon dioxide traps radiation in the Earth's atmosphere. Light come in, looses energy and can't get out. It's the classic Greenhouse Effect example, where CO2 would be analogous to transparent glass or plastic.
How do greeenhouse gases protect earths atmosphere?
They dont they just make the earth hotter
Why is the temperature getting hotter?
some theories are: the temperature is getting hotter due to co2 from both volcanoes and cars the temperature is gettig hotter due to a nautural cycle
How does the mantle change as you go deeper into the Earth's interior?
The deeper into the Earth you go it gets hotter and hotter.
Can glasses make people hotter?
it can make u hotter if u say that it can make u hotter
What is hotter surface of sun or core of earth?
Surface of the sun is hotter.
Why does the earth keep getting hotter and hotter when receives energy from the sun.?
smeagol
How might cutting down a large percentage of earths forests affect the greenhouse affect?
it will make the earth hotter
Is the moon hotter than earth?
it depend on you position on earth
