The only relation there is between the two is carbon dioxide (CO2).
Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas. Too much of it in the atmosphere causes the 'greenhouse effect' whereby the earth warms.
In the photosynthesis process CO2 is captured from the atmosphere and, with the help of sunlight (and water in the case of plants) turned into organic compounds. A waste product of this process is oxygen.
The greenhouse effect does not have to be combatted, as it usefully keeps the earth warm. But we have to stop the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming. The only process that can combat the enhanced greenhouse effect is photosynthesis, trees and plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Plants counteract the greenhouse effect by removing carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. This process helps to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, mitigating global warming and climate change.
They both are related. One causes the other.
As far as CO2 is involved, Photosynthesis is by far and away the Best method of carbon capture and STORAGE [within Earth's Soil] that We Possess; and this [as well as any, every and all forms of ] Removal of CO2 from Our paper thin Atmosphere is what We Desire Most.
Carbon dioxide helps the greenhouse in one way. Plants in the greenhouse needs carbon dioxide to grow.
By removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere through photosynthesis.
Global Warming... Global Warming is caused by Carbon Dioxide being trapped in the Earth's atmosphere. AKA the greenhouse effect.
¨During the photosynthesis process the plant takes in some carbon dioxide from the air and uses it during the rest of the process. When the plant inhales the carbon dioxide it means that there is less of it in the air. This means that there is less carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the enhanced greenhouse effect is reduced.
greenhouse effect
Photosynthesis, where plants absorb carbon dioxide, store the carbon and release the oxygen.
Actually, the increase in greenery and oxygen levels is a result of photosynthesis, where plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide into oxygen. The greenhouse effect, on the other hand, refers to the trapping of heat in the Earth's atmosphere by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane.
The greenhouse effect is the natural way that the Earth keeps warm. Too many extra greenhouse gases turn the greenhouse effect into an enhanced greenhouse effect. The enhanced, or accelerated, greenhouse effect is causing global warming.
