What is the greenhouse effect?
The greenhouse effect refers to the fact that the Earth is surrounded by an atmosphere that acts as a transparent covering of the greenhouse, allows you to filter sunlight when the heat is trapped. The Earth's atmosphere is largely for nitrogen and oxygen, but it is not a greenhouse gases or contribute to the greenhouse effect.
During the day it absorbs the Earth directly from the sun and reflects it into space. Without an atmosphere causing a greenhouse effect, this heat would escape at night in the absence of direct sunlight and the ground temperature would drop rapidly. Instead, the gaseous molecules absorb the heat released by the planet and suit it in all directions, reabsorbing it and renovating it again. This maintains the Earth's surface relatively warm and the average temperature comfortable. The greenhouse effect is crucial in the country's ability to maintain a temperament that maintains life.
Looking at our neighboring planets of Venus andMars shows what happens when the greenhouse effect - which resembles a blanket covering the planet - will be too thick or too thin. Temperatures on Venus rise because of their very strong blanket or atmosphere. The escape of the greenhouse here is stunning. On the other hand, Mars has such a thin blanket (atmosphere) and a weak greenhouse effect that the planet is very cold. Almost all the warmth that Mars of Mars escapes. The relative distance from the Sun plays a role in global temperatures of inner planets, but the greenhouse effect or its lack is largely responsible for the climate on all these planets.
Scientists began using the term “greenhouse effect” in the 18th century. At that time it had no negative knowledge. In the mid -1950s, the term “greenhouse effect” began to be associated with global warming and also with the negative effects of our industrial age. This greenhouse effect of improved , as is sometimes referred, is the result of combustion of fossil fuels. This releases another oxideCarbon dumps into the atmosphere at a speed of about 3 gigatons (3 billion metric tons) per year. Since carbon dioxide (CO2) absorbs heat, we can expect a significant increase in CO2 tending to raise global temperature, which may contribute to global warming. Simply put, if greenhouse gases act as a blanket to make our planet warm, we thicken this blanket.
The natural greenhouse effect on Earth is responsible for life as we know it. However, we can become better administrators of our greenhouse gases to keep our lives.
