Image
  Courtesy:PV education   The process through which heat is trapped near Earth's surface by greenhouse gases is called greenhouse effect . These gases are - carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen oxides and CFCs.These gases allowed the sunlight to shine onto Earth's surface but trap 90% of  the heat that reflects back to the atmosphere. Thus , these gases act as insulating glass walls of a greenhouse and keep the climate favorable for living beings by about 33° C.       Climate Scientists now agree that increase of greenhouse gases are directly linked to the increase of global temperature and affecting global climate.This is called climate change.       Greenhouse gas emissions increased 70% between 1970-2004 due to anthropogenic activities. Burning of fossil fuels to run power plants, vehicles,etc is responsible for the 80% increase of carbon dioxide in this timespan. Cutting of trees has accelerated the addition of this gas a...
