Does the greenhouse effect increase carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
No. The greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm. Extra carbon dioxide added to it is causing global warming.
What is added into the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels?
Burning fossil fuels emits carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming and climate change. It also releases other pollutants like sulfur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter, which can harm air quality and human health.
How does global warming make the planet hotter?
Global warming is the planet getting hotter.Actually the accelerated greenhouse effect is making the planet hotter. Extra greenhouse gases are added to the atmosphere from fossil fuel combustion (coal, oil and natural gas). This extra greenhouse gas is absorbing more heat, so the atmosphere is warmer. That is global warming.
How has man's activities added to global warming?
The Exhaust From Cars Goes into The atmosphere and Adds to the greenhouse effect . Co2 ( Carbon Dioxide ) Is in Exhaust It is causing the enhanced Greenhouse Effect. Then The greenhouse gases absorb more heat onto Earth Causing Global Warming . Also Deforestation, Cutting down Trees . Trees soak up carbon dioxide because they're plants ( They Perform photosynthesis ) When they are cut down Co2 remains in the greenhouse atmosphere making it warmer.
Where do greenhouse gases go?
Greenhouse gases trap the heat rising from the warmed surface of the earth. Hence, increasing the temperature of earth. This is called the greenhouse effect. If extra greenhouse gases are added, then we have an accelerated greenhouse effect, which causes global warming.
Does the greenhouse effect increase carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
No. The greenhouse effect keeps the earth warm. Extra carbon dioxide added to it is causing global warming.
When gas oil and coal are burned what is added to the atmosphere?
When gas, oil, and coal are burned, they release carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and other pollutants into the atmosphere. These pollutants contribute to air pollution, acid rain, and climate change.

What does CO2 have to do with global warming?
CO2, carbon dioxide, is one of the greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases trap heat rising from the earth's surface and stop it escaping into space. This is called the greenhouse effect. This is the connection with global warming. We have added a lot of extra carbon dioxide to the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), and this build up is causing global warming.
Who is being affected by the greenhouse effect?
All life as it could not exist without the natural greenhouse effect which has kept the planet warm for millions of years.All life now is being affected by the enhanced greenhouse effect, which is caused by the extra greenhouse gases added to the atmosphere for the past 250 years, mostly by humans burning fossil fuels. This is leading to global warming, making the earth warmer, and this warming is causing climate change.
What is needed for the greenhouse affect?
The greenhouse effect needs:An atmosphere that contains greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide etc.Heat from the sun (ultraviolet radiation) that warms the earth.Heat from the warm earth (infrared radiation) that rises into the atmosphere and is captured by the greenhouse gases.The greenhouse effect is a good thing. If we didn't have it the earth would be too cold for us to live on. The problem now is that we have added too much greenhouse gas, and the atmosphere is trapping too much heat causing global warming. This global warming causes climate change.
What were some effects on the atmosphere by the Industrial Revolution?
The industrial revolution caused tremendous amounts of carbon to be liberated from the earth, where they were emitted into the air mostly as fossil fuels. This added largely carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, which enhanced the natural greenhouse effect. This is why the earth has been warming for the last century, increasingly so in recent decades.
What are the enviromental effects of using coal?
Burning coal releases carbon dioxide, which (according to the US EPA) is a polluting greenhouse gas. The extra CO2 added to the atmosphere is overwhelming the carbon cycle and is causing global warming.
How is carbon dioxide added to the atmosphere?
By burning fossil fuels like coal, oil and natural gas.
Burning fossil fuels is the main source of air?
Burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity is the main source of air pollution, in the form of carbon dioxide (CO2) (a greenhouse gas classified as a pollutant when it is added to the atmosphere).
