it includes the definition, effects and some certain measures that should be done order to lessen the effect that e experience. the first pat also includes short activity.
10. Water Vapour
Produced by the
Sun’s heat emissions
Makes up a maximum
of 4% of the air
Causes about two-
thirds of the
greenhouse effect
Higher temperature =
more water vapour
(feedback loop)
11. Carbon Dioxide
Both man-made and
naturally produced
Accounts for 385 ppm of
the atmosphere
Responsible for about a
25% of the natural
greenhouse effect on
Earth
Carbon sinks help
remove CO2 emissions
from the air
12. Methane
Produced both by human
sources and naturally
Less quantities of
methane in the
atmosphere than carbon
dioxide
Methane molecules are
more capable of
absorbing thermal energy
than CO2 molecules
13. Ozone
Exists naturally
Creates the layer
protecting the Earth
from the Sun’s high-
energy UV radiation
rays
Acts as a
greenhouse gas in
the troposphere
15. The "greenhouse effect" is
the effect of atmospheric gases
like carbon dioxide absorbing
energy from the sun and earth
and "trapping" it near the Earth's
surface, warming the Earth to a
temperature range that is
hospitable for life.
16.
17. The increase in the
concentration of carbon
dioxide, one of the three
major atmospheric
contributors to the greenhouse
effect has been carefully
documented at the Mauna Loa
Observatory in Hawaii.
31. Effects On Sea
Levels
Rising temperatures cause water of the oceans along
with the sea to increase
Increasing temperatures melt ice as it starts to flow into
the seas of Antarctic and Greenland.
sea levels rise by 20-40 cm causing floods in areas with
low coast areas e.g. Bangladesh and Netherland
Flood in many areas case a danger for living things
32. Effects on Farming
changes in the weather affect the growing crops around the
world
Crops of wheat and rice grow well in high temperatures
sugarcane and maize don’t survive in high temperature and
end up dying
Furthermore change in the amount of rainfall affect the growth
leading to shortage of food
South-Eastern part of the world will be affected as people will
