The atmosphere, in layman’s terms, is the layer of gases that surrounds the Earth. It plays a vital role in sustaining life on our planet by protecting us from harmful solar radiation and regulating the temperature of the Earth.
The atmosphere is composed of various gases, including nitrogen, oxygen, argon, and carbon dioxide, among others.
Broadly, the atmosphere is divided into five distinct layers: the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere.
It is thus crucial to take the necessary steps to reduce carbon footprint emissions by us humans and protect our atmosphere from an increase in greenhouse gases.
