    for global warming. We could not live without the greenhouse effect. The main gases are ozone‚ nitrous oxide‚ carbon dioxide‚ methane‚ and water vapor. These reflected rays‚ called infrared radiation ‚ keeps the atmosphere warm. They are vital in maintaining the balance in our atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is mostly a result of the sunlight’s energy and the clouds that absorb and reflect heat. Without the greenhouse effect‚ earth would be less than 33 degrees Celsius cooler. Human activity

    surface and the lower atmosphere‚ it results in an elevation of the average surface temperature above what it would be in the absence of the gases.[1][2] Solar radiation at the frequencies of visible light largely passes through the atmosphere to warm the planetary surface‚ which then emits this energy at the lower frequencies of infrared thermal radiation. Infrared radiation is absorbed by greenhouse gases‚ which in turn re-radiate much of the energy to the surface and lower atmosphere. The mechanism

    the view and sound of waves rumbling along the sea starts our excitement. The weather is perfect. Some people dive into the chill relaxing water like a family of dolphins‚ as others sunbath along us being like a group of lazy walruses resting. The atmosphere is comforting. Out beyond the heavy waves. I can see the three mystery islands that appear every time of visit‚ wondering any survival. However my long concentration suddenly breaks within a moment. Surprisingly humpback whales dance‚ darting up

    Causes of Climate Change Climate change is a long-term shift in weather conditions identified by changes in temperature‚ precipitation‚ winds‚ and other indicators. Climate change can involve both changes in average conditions and changes in variability‚ including‚ for example‚ extreme events. The earth’s climate is naturally variable on all time scales. However‚ its long-term state and average temperature are regulated by the balance between incoming and outgoing energy‚ which determines the Earth’s

    The earth-atmosphere system maintains equilibrium through the absorption of solar radiation and the re-radiation of that energy back to space as infrared or longwave radiation. This process establishes the temperature balance of the sea/surface on Earth. Radiated energy does not‚ however‚ have unhindered access to and from space. The atmosphere surrounding the earth also carries the ability to absorb radiation‚ and since the atmosphere has a lower temperature than the surface‚ it absorbs more energy

    fluorinated gases like chlorofluorocarbons‚ hydrochlorofluorocarbons‚ and halons. These gasses can take anywhere from a few years to thousands of years to dissipate in the atmosphere. Once released; these gasses act as insulators or blankets that trap these gasses in out atmosphere preventing heat from escaping the atmosphere and forcing temperatures to rise‚ but it doesn’t stop here. As temperatures rise‚ our polar ice caps at both of the poles have lost a significant amount of their mass; this
