greenhouse effect is the increase in the average surface temperature of the earth due to trapping of heat radiations by green house gases like carbon dioxide ,methane ,CFC's , water vapour,etc.

description: the infrared short radiations of the sun are absorbed by the surface objects of the earth.later  the emitted infrared radiations of long wavelength are not allowed to escape to space but are instead trapped by the green house gases.thus more and more short radiations are absorbed and the long radiations remain here thus increasing the global temperature.

useful effects:
1. it maintains the surface temperature of the earth thus making it suitable for existence of life.
2.if not for the greenhouse effect the earth would have been a barren land.

ill effects:
1.too much heat on the earth's surface melts the ice at the polar regions thus introducing floods .

Greenhouse Effect➫ The warming effect of the sun on greenhouse gases like Carbon dioxide that act to trap this heat in our atmosphere.

Ex:- Global Warming

♦ It is one of the main factors determining the temperature of a planet.

♦ It act like a blanket by absorbing IR radiation & preventing it from escaping into outer space.

➧ Types 0f Greenhouse Gases are:-

❱ 0zone
❱ Methane
❱ Nitrous oxide
❱ Carbon dioxide
❱ Chlorofluorocarbons
❱ Hydrofluorocarbons

➧ Causes 0f Greenhouse Effect are:-
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=⤵

❱ Burning of Fossils Fuel like - Coal.

❱ Trapping of energy in the lower atmosphere.

❱ The chemical composition of the atmosphere.

❱ The total energy influx from the sun which depends on the earth's distance from the sun & on solar activity.


➧ Importance 0f Greenhouse Effect are:-

❱ It maintain the water level of the earth's surface.

It keeps the Earth warm enough to sustain life.

❱ It prevents the melting of ice & restricts the polar caps to the polar regions only.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=⤵

❱ Skin disease.
❱ Rise in sea level.
❱ Climate Change.
❱ Increase in earth's temperature.


➧ The ways to reduce Greenhouse Effect are:-
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=⤵

❱ Reduce, Reuse & Recycle.

❱ Use Less Heat & Air Conditioning.

❱ Replace Your Light Bulbs.

❱ Drive Less & Drive Smart.

❱ Buy Energy-Efficient Products.

❱ Use Less Hot Water.

❱ Use the "Off" Switch.

❱ Plant a Tree.
