1.) Without the greenhouse effect, how would the overall temperatures on earth differ from what they are now?
2.) the greenhouse gases in our atmosphere are carbon dioxide, methane, water vapor, and ozone. In relation to the greenhouse effect, what is it that these gases do?
3. When does the presence of these gases become a problem?
You know that the “job†of the greenhouse gases is to retain heat in our atmosphere so that the average temperature on earth is a comfortable 60o F, and that the problem arises when there is an increase in the amount of these gases in our atmosphere.
4. Based on this information, having more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will do to the average temperatures in the atmosphere and why?
