Greenhouse gases (GHG) allows sun radiation to penetrate and reach earth but are insulators to heat to move through into outer space. According GHG contribute to global warming. This global warming could lead to more snow melt down that lead to rise of water levels on earth and possible sinking of low level earth areas under water.

Greenhouse gases are necessary for maintaining Earth's temperature and creating a habitable environment. However, an excess of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, can lead to global warming and climate change, posing risks to ecosystems and biodiversity. Balancing the levels of greenhouse gases is essential for sustaining life on Earth.
They stop heat from escaping the atmosphere- apex
No, radon is not a greenhouse gas. It is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless radioactive gas that occurs naturally in the environment. Greenhouse gases, on the other hand, are gases that contribute to the greenhouse effect by trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere.
The earth's overall temperature with greenhouse gases is 76442 degrees F.
Both ozone depletion and the greenhouse effect involve changes in the Earth's atmosphere that can impact the environment and climate. Ozone depletion refers to the thinning of the ozone layer, which protects Earth from harmful UV rays, while the greenhouse effect refers to the trapping of heat in the atmosphere by greenhouse gases, leading to global warming. Both phenomena are influenced by human activities, such as the release of pollutants and greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
