  1. Greenhouse Effect

    Did you know that we need the Natural Greenhouse Effect to live?If the Natural
    Greenhouse Effect didn’t exist the average temperature would be around -20ºC!!!

    Let’s start by describing how it works,Ok the Natural Greenhouse Effect works like this:The sun emits sunlight (a form of energy) to the Earth🌎,the Earth absorbs most of the sunlight and then reflects the rest to the space in another form called Infrared radiation,but some Greenhouse gasses like Carbon dioxide and Methane trap some of the Infrared Radiation in the Earth’s atmosphere with the result Earth getting even warmer.
    But the Greenhouse Effect gets stronger because methane,Carbon dioxide are released

  2. About the Greenhouse Effect

    Greenhouse effect we call an effect that help us and we need it about the tempraruture in Earth.Greenhouse effect works in the following way : The energy of the sun and radiations transfers to the Earth.Many rays of the sun remain on the earth but a few want to leave, but they can’t because the so-called carbon dioxide umbrella has been created in recent years.Because of the factories, when they work or do repairs, use oils, petroleum, so they burn theme and go to the earth’s atmosphere. Because of the umbrella of carbon dioxide the temperature of the earth rises, the ices melt and the water level rises.

    • In fact, the greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon that regulates the Earth’s temperature. Without the greenhouse effect, it would be freezing cold and the Earth wouldn’t be able to support life the way we know it. So, this CO2 umbrella is necessary for us to live but up to a point. The recent increase in CO2 levels has made the greenhouse effect much stronger than necessary, which has led to a rise in the Earth’s average temperature (=global warming).

  3. The Greenhouse Effect is a very dangerous and serious phenomenon.Τhis phenomenon effects with the same way on Earth. During the day the Sun heats the Earth and the surface warms up. During the night, the Earth’s surface cools and releases
    heat back into the air. Because of the greenhouse effect, some of the heat is trapped in the atmosphere. That keeps the Earth warmer on average 14 degrees Celcius. The ice all over the world melts and the level of the sea increase. We must act now before is too late.

    • So, George, the greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon. The energy from the sun reaches the earth in the form of sunlight and it is absorbed by land and water.
      Did you mean to say that the high CO2 emissions are a serious problem that puts life on earth in danger? And that human activity threatens life on earth?

    “Greenhouse gases” trap heat in the atmosphere and keep the Earth enough warm, for plants and animals to live, this is the “greenhouse effect. Land and water absorb most of the sunlight energy that warms up the Earth and then gives off energy in a different form called infrared radiation. A part of this energy travels back towards the outer space and greenhouse gases trap some of this. As people use energy burning fossil fuels which produce carbon dioxide, these extra gasses trap more heat and makes the planet warmer. This fact leads to changing rain and snow patterns, rising sea level, melting glaciers and ice sheets, etc.

    Τhe greenhouse effect occurs when the sun heats the earth and it holds its heat and later releases it as a radiator into space. However, due to the greenhouse effect, it does not release all the heat. If the earth released all the heat there could be no life because the temperature would drop to -20 degrees Celsius.

    Greenhouse effect: it is the natural process that warms the Earth’s surface. The process is called the greenhouse effect because the exchange of incoming and outgoing radiation that warms the planet works in a similar way to a greenhouse.
