All about the greenhouse effect The gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, methane and ozone, are known as greenhouse gases. Had they not been, is the average temperature at Earths surface would be up to -20 degrees Celsius. The above gases translucent solar radiation, which warms the Earth. However, the same radiation reflected from the land and oceans are no longer allowed in full by the greenhouse gases, so that it remains at the surface of the Earth. While greenhouse gas emissions is too much, it does not promiscuousness excess heat into space. Is increased if the temperature at the Earth, a phenomenon that is called the greenhouse effect, the effect of global warming or glasshouse. For over a century was recorded continued growth in the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, accompanied by a continuous increase in the mean air temperature on Earth. If this state continues, in 2050 the average global temperature could rise by as much as 2.5 degree Celsius. Warming climate will result in degrees of the Arctic and Antarctic glaciers, raising sea levels and ocean, and this will cause flooding of coastal lands. Climate zones will shift towards the poles. Steppes and deserts will become Savannah, forests and move to the north or south. In their place created the steppes. It will be a killer for people suffering from drought and hunger, since farming is completely impossible. Undoubtedly, the greatest cause of global warming is the increase in the number of carbon dioxide. It is caused by the development industry, the automotive industry and deforestation equatorial, as Earths lungs.
