Introduction

Greenhouse gases are those gases


Greenhouse gases: that contributes to the warming of
the Earth's atmosphere by
reflecting radiation from the
Earth's surface. Greenhouse gases
greatly affect the temperature of
the Earth; without them, Earth's
surface would be about 33 °C
(59 °F) colder than at present.
Greenhouse gases are those that
can absorb and emit infrared
radiation. In order, the most
abundant greenhouse gases in
Earth's atmosphere are:

water vapor (H2O)


carbon dioxide (CO2)
methane(CH4)
nitrous oxide (N2O)
ozone (O3)
Natural Greenhouse
Earth is much colder than the sun, but it is warmer than the space outside
its atmosphere. Earth's atmosphere is made up of gases, and these gases
allow some solar radiation to reach the planet but also absorb some of the
heat radiating from the planet, trapping it and radiating it back downward
to the surface. This cycle is called the greenhouse effect, because it is
similar to the warming process inside a glass-walled greenhouse. Earth's
atmosphere traps enough heat to keep the entire planet warm; without it,
the average temperature of the Earth's surface would be much colder than
the freezing point of water, about 0 degrees Celsius.
What is artificial greenhouse ??
A greenhouse is a house made of glass. It has glass walls and a glass roof. People grow
tomatoes ,flowers and other plants in them. A greenhouse stays warm inside, even during
winter. Sunlight shines in and warms the plants and air inside. But the heat is trapped by the
glass and can't escape. So during the daylight hours, it gets warmer and warmer inside a
greenhouse, and stays pretty warm at night too. Due to artificial greenhouse people can grow
plants in the off season too.
Greenhouse Effect

Greenhouse Effect, the capacity of certain gases in the


atmosphere to trap heat emitted from Earth’s surface, thereby
insulating and warming the planet. The greenhouse effect has
warmed Earth for over 4 billion years. Now scientists are
growing increasingly concerned that human activities may be
modifying this natural process, with potentially dangerous
consequences.
Ozone Layer Depletion: A cause of
increasing Greenhouse Effect
Ozone depletion describes two distinct but related phenomena
observed since the late 1970s: a steady decline of about 4% per
decade in the total volume of ozone in Earth's stratosphere (the
ozone layer), and a much larger springtime decrease in stratospheric
ozone over Earth's polar regions. The latter phenomenon is referred
to as the ozone hole.
Disadvantages of accumulation of greenhouse gases

a) Increase in Earth’s average


temperature
b) Rise in sea level
c) Melting of snow, glaciers
d) Extinction of various plants and
animal species
e) Struggle for existence

When there’s a change in


Environment, the health of
People gets directly affect due to imbalance in
various natural cycles. When the natural cycles are
disturbed due to accumulation of greenhouse gases,
the environment gets polluted. Along with that, the
people’s health gets directly and inversely affected.
Increase in Earth’s temperature
increases vaporization which creates
shortage of water and the consumption
of the polluted water causes diseases
Use of high amount of chemicals
fertilizers to increase soil fertility harms
the health of organisms
Increased temperature disrupts
natural cycles and creates difficulty in
adaptation. This affects the overall health
of people.
Survival of wildlife, plants becomes difficult
and many species die
Various new diseases infect living beings,
plants
Hunger and starvation due to less productivity
of land causes malnutrition
Various deformities is seen in various species
Difficult in adaptation due to change in
temperature
Solutions to increasing Greenhouse
effect
• Reduce the use of materials which produce greenhouse
gases.
• Avoid the burning of fossil fuel and household residue.
• Upgrade infrastructures.
• Afforestation.
• Using alternative sources of energy.
• Using eco-friendly materials.
• Incineration plant should be established.
• Pollution should be controlled……
Solutions to Greenhouse effect
Human, Oh, human
Please do something.
A little effort, a little care
Put on a little effort and there will
not be heat everywhere.
There are not many forests,
There are not many trees, Green
house effect, Oh stop it please!!!!
Stop littering, stop polluting
Stop throwing rubbish into the
sea;
The oceans are dying,
The earth is crying!!!!
Save the planet,
Save it please
