What is the correlation between greenhouse effect and climate change. What consequences will we face if we fail to control our actions?

We are at a

time

when many of us are turning away from the fact that

climate

Use synonyms

change

Use synonyms

is real. If not curbed, it will have a devastating

effect

Use synonyms

on our lives and the environment if not addressed on

time

Use synonyms

. Before we take a look at

climate

Use synonyms

change

Use synonyms

, we must understand what the

greenhouse

effect

Use synonyms

is and how humans are accelerating it to contribute to

climate

Use synonyms

change

Use synonyms

. Let’s look at each of these concepts broken down in

this

article to understand the link between the

greenhouse

effect

Use synonyms

and

climate

Use synonyms

change

Use synonyms

. What is “

Greenhouse

Effect

Use synonyms

”? The

Greenhouse

Use synonyms

effect

Use synonyms

is a natural process where the

atmosphere

Use synonyms

of the planet emits radiation.

This

helps to warm up the surface of the planet. There are specific “

Greenhouse

gases” that are present in the

atmosphere

Use synonyms

of the planet. They radiate energy, which is

radiated in all

directions

. A part of

this

radiated energy is directed to the surface, ultimately warming it up. The

effect

Use synonyms

of the

greenhouse

Use synonyms

depends on the temperature of the

atmosphere

Use synonyms

and the number of

greenhouse

gases present in the

atmosphere

Use synonyms

.

This

natural process of the

greenhouse

effect

Use synonyms

is important to sustain life on Earth. The devastating

climate

Use synonyms

change

Use synonyms

that we are worried about is brought up due to the humans burning an excessive amount of fossil fuels and carrying out de-forestation, which influences the temperature of the Earth and its

climate

Use synonyms

. What are

greenhouse

Use synonyms

gases?

Use synonyms

Greenhouse gas is

Suggestion

A greenhouse gas is

a gas which traps the heat in the Earth’s

atmosphere

. They absorb and emit infrared radiation. These

gases cause the

effect

.

Although

greenhouse

Use synonyms

gases occur naturally, various human activities are increasing the amount of these gases in the

atmosphere

Use synonyms

. Some of the

greenhouse

gases are: • Nitrous Oxide • Methane (CH4) • Carbon dioxide (CO2) •

Fluorinated

gases

such

as Hydrofluorocarbons, nitrogen trifluoride,

etc. • Water Vapor (H2O) • Ozone (O3) Water vapour has got only 9 days of residence

gases. Most of the other

greenhouse

Use synonyms

gases are mixed well and they take much longer to get rid off from the

atmosphere

Use synonyms

. In short, most of the

greenhouse

Use synonyms

gases can remain in the

atmosphere

Use synonyms

, ranging from a few counted years to hundreds and thousands of years.

However

Linking Words

, it should be noted that Carbon dioxide is the main culprit that contributes greatly to the

greenhouse

Use synonyms

effect

Use synonyms

. What are some causes/human activities that increase the emission of

greenhouse

Use synonyms

gases? As it has been mentioned before, various human activities have led to an increase in the emission of the

greenhouse

Use synonyms

gases and some of these are: • Excessive burning of fossil fuels

such

Linking Words

as oil, gas, and coal. These produce Nitrous oxide and Carbon dioxide, which are

greenhouse

Use synonyms

gases. • Increase in farming

also

contributes to

greenhouse

effects. A large amount of Methane gas is produced by livestock when they digest food. Unless there is a balance,

this

adds to the

greenhouse

Use synonyms

effect

Use synonyms

. • Using fertilizers that contain nitrogen. They produce the emission of Nitrous oxide. • Cutting down forests for various purposes.

This

also

contributes to the issue as tress help with the regulation of CO2, by absorbing the gas from the

atmosphere

and releasing O2. What are some impacts of the

greenhouse

on

? Earth does undergo

a varying timescale

from

millions of years to a few counted years. Various methods are used to determine the

changes of the past,

such

as lie core, sediments from lakes, glaciers,

speleothems

Suggestion

etc. But, considering the

greenhouse

Use synonyms

effect

Use synonyms

, it does affect the

climate

Use synonyms

, due to its consequences. There are various consequences of the

greenhouse

Use synonyms

effect

Use synonyms

and if not addressed right on

time

Use synonyms

, they will surely have a devastating

effect

Use synonyms

, alongside changing the

climate

Use synonyms

of various regions throughout the globe. Some of the consequences are: • Extreme changes in the weather • More flooding incidences • Occurrences of drought, with a shift in rainfall • Increase in the sea level and melting of ice • More incidences of extreme weather changes • More occurrences of natural disasters

However

Linking Words

, it should be noted that, other than having a devastating

effect

on our environment, it will

also

have a negative

on human health, society, and

economy

Suggestion

the economy

. Incidences of natural disasters can cause economic loss and loss of human lives as well. With changing

due to the

, agricultural and forestry industries and many others will

come under the

, adding to the problem. To conclude, the link between the

greenhouse

effect

Use synonyms

and

climate

Use synonyms

is clear and evident. The

greenhouse

effect

has got consequences that lead to a

change

in the

Use synonyms

. We need to create mass awareness to make sure that we understand the effects that

greenhouse

can have on

, on the Earth and our daily lives. We need to come up with a solution to prevent the acceleration of
