named the faint young sun paradox. The article then explains how the two greenhouse gases carbon dioxide‚ and methane could have trapped heat in the atmosphere. This would have all been possible and happened during the archean eon. One thing this article explained well is how much of Co2 and methane combined would have kept heat trapped in the atmosphere. Just to keep earth above freezing‚ it would take about 75 times of Co2 as there

sulphate aerosols being released into the atmosphere causing widespread cooling due to the aerosols reflecting back the sun’s energy before it reaches the earth and the effects of this can last for several months or even years (Holden et al. 2012 Ch. 4). Volcanic eruptions also emit large amounts of gases including sulphur‚ water vapour‚ and carbon dioxide. Sulphur dioxide in the atmosphere causes the formation of acid droplets that scatter in the atmosphere and cause the sun’s rays to bounce back

the origin of life on Earth. They designed an apparatus that mocked the atmosphere of early Earth‚ Miller gathered molecules which were believed to represent the major components that were believed to be in the atmosphere and placed them into a closed system. A mix of water (H2O)‚ methane (CH4)‚ ammonia (NH3)‚ and hydrogen (H2)‚ the materials which were believed to represent the major components of the early Earth ’s atmosphere‚ was used in the experiment in order to test what kind of environment

After years of burning unlimited amount of fossil fuels and releasing harmful gases into the atmosphere‚ we have reached a point where it has affected our ecosystem. As result of the changes in our ecosystem‚ we have placed extreme amount of stress on living organisms. Animal population decreasing is one aspect of life; we have witnessed certain animal

over the past century but since the Industrial Revolution‚ the effect of additions of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere have been about ten times that of changes in the Sun’s output‚ meaning that the sun is causing slight climate change‚ but not a significant amount of change. The Earth has a natural greenhouse effect where certain gases (known as greenhouse gases) in the atmosphere allow the sunlight to enter but absorb the heat radiation. Because these gases absorb the heat‚ they keep the average
