what is the phenomenon of greenhouse effect and what are its effects to the environment?

Answer 1

The greenhouse effect, first discovered by Joseph Fourier in 1824, and first investigated quantitatively by Svante Arrhenius in 1896, is the radiative forcing process by which an atmosphere warms a planet. The name is from the similar effect which greenhouses utilize in order to facilitate plant growth.

In common parlance, the term greenhouse effect may be used to refer either to the natural greenhouse effect, which is the greenhouse effect which occurs naturally on Earth, or to the enhanced (anthropogenic) greenhouse effect, which results from gases emitted as a result of human activities (see also global warming). No-one disputes the former, or its magnitude; the latter is accepted by a large majority of scientists, although there is some dispute as to its magnitude (see scientific opinion on climate change and attribution of recent climate change).

Answer 2

There is too much CO2 in the atmosphere. The atmosphere maintains the ultraviolet rays rather than allowing it to escape therefore the warming of the earth. Solution: stop cutting trees and plant more where the plants consumes the CO2 and puts more clean O2 into the air we breathe.

Answer 3

one phenomenon is a mini-ice age. Britain and Europe had one in the 12-1400's i dint know the precise date. as the earth warms, the weather generator that keeps Europe and England warm, shuts down and their weather cools drastically.

Answer 4

green house effect is heating up the earth creating weirder more extreme weather... but it could easily be stopped we just need a few nuclear winters to balance everything out.

Answer 5

the radiations from sun is trapped in the earth.this cause increase in temp. this is called G H E.

as the temps keeps on increasing there is global warming
