- The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon.
- In this process gases in earth’s atmosphere trap solar heat.
- It is crucial to keeping our planet at a suitable temperature for life.
- It makes earth much warmer than it would be without an atmosphere.
- But human activities are increasing much more than normal.
- Clearing forests, burning fossil fuels etc are increasing greenhouse gases.
- Methane, carbon dioxide, water vapors etc are the major greenhouse gases.
- It has also resulted in global warming.
- Rise in the level of the sea, submergence of island and coastal cities are the major consequences.
- We can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by switching to renewable sources of energy and using less fossil fuels.
