What is the Greenhouse Effect? Visible light (SHORT WAVE ENERGY) passes through the atmosphere (atm) Page 14

What is the Greenhouse Effect? Earth’s surface absorbs the energy and heats up Page 14

What is the Greenhouse Effect? Earth’s surface reradiates the heat as infrared energy (long wave) Page 14

What is the Greenhouse Effect? Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere absorb the terrestrial radiation and this heats the Earth Page 14

What is the Greenhouse Effect? Visible light is allowed to pass through the atmosphere Surface absorbs the energy Earth’s surface reradiates infrared energy Infrared is absorbed by Greenhouse gases Page 14

Why is it called the Greenhouse Effect Analogy a car during the summer Page 14

Life on Earth due to Greenhouse Effect The Greenhouse Effect is GOOD!! Earth is in the “Goldilocks Planet” – just right – average temperature is 59° F (w/o GE our average temperature would be -3° F) BRRRRRRRR! Mars’ average temperature is -67° F (1/5 of our atmosphere) Venus’ average temperature, due to GE on steroids, is 855° F. Super Sweaty!! Mercury’s temperature 333° F Page 14

Water Vapor, Carbon Dioxide, & methane Greenhouse Gases = Water Vapor, Carbon Dioxide, & methane Page 14 co2 CH4 o3 H2O Earth gives of long waves ( infrared energy)

Greenhouse gases absorb the infrared rays and trap the heat causing the overall temperature to increase. (global warming) The Greenhouse Effect

What is the Greenhouse Effect?

Page 14 GREENHOUSE GASES THE BURNING OF FOSSIL FUELS is increasing the amounts of atmospheric CARBON DIOXIDE, AND METHANE

Global Warming Is the increase in Earth’s normal surface temperatures Page 14 Is the increase in Earth’s normal surface temperatures Caused by anthropogenic activities (human impact) such as: burning of fossil fuels (oil, gas, coal, etc) for energy

Global Warming Page 14 The burning of fossils fuels releases Greenhouse gases into the atmosphere such as: CO2, CH4, NOX, etc Results an increase of absorption of infrared radiation, thus warming Earth

Global Warming The increasing of the Greenhouse Effect due to anthropogenic activities (human impact) Due to the burning of fossil fuels (oil, gas, coal, etc) Fossils fuels release Greenhouse gases into the atmosphere CO2, CH4, NOX, etc Results an increase of absorption of infrared radiation, thus warming Earth

Consequences of Global Warming Climate Change Rising Sea levels The destruction of ecosystems including endangering plant and animal life Among others

Solutions Use Alternative Fuel Sources Conservation Awareness Spread the Word Save YOUR Earth before its too late!!!!!!

El Nino Effect Is a short term event which is caused by Global Warming Page 14 El Nino Effect Is a short term event which is caused by Global Warming This warming causes water in the Pacific Ocean, off the coast of Indonesia to heat up insert pix, video, etc…
