Greenhouse gases can be absorbed through natural processes like photosynthesis, where plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen. Additionally, certain products or materials can be created to capture and store greenhouse gases, known as carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. Additionally, ocean water can absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Greenhouse gases are transparent to visible light, which passes through the atmosphere to the surface of the earth and provides warmth at the surface.
This warmth is re-radiated at much lower frequencies to visible light, as infrared radiation. While oxygen and nitrogen are also transparent to infrared radiation, greenhouse gases are not. They appear opaque at certain frequencies and therefore absorb energy at these frequencies and prevent it escaping into space. This is the greenhouse effect, and an increase in greenhouse gas concentrations can lead to global warming.
The Greenhouse gases will either transmit or reflect (or re-radiate) radiation.
When a molecule absorbs radiation, it will get warmer, and re-radiate the energy. This re-radiated energy is at a longer wavelength than the incoming radiation.
We have incoming thermal radiation from the Sun. Most of this arrives on the Earth's surface, is absorbed, and the ground becomes warmer.
Some of this is re-radiated at a longer wavelength. The atmosphere is more opaque to the longer wavelength radiation. So it becomes trapped.
The atmosphere is less transparent to longer wavelength radiation than to shorter wavelength. So the atmosphere reflects long wavelength radiation.
Water vapour, Carbon dioxide, methane, and ozone are the main greenhouse gases. Without the greenhouse gases, the temperature of the Earth would be up to 30oC colder than it is.
the best way is to cut down on pollution.however greenhouse gases cannot be absorb unless one invests too much money to separate the co2,the co the ch4 etc from the other gases in the atmosphere.basically planting more forests would help in absorbing the excess co2.even such operations maybe conducted where certain substances maybe released in the atmosphere to react with the ghgases and hence neutralise their hatmful effect
Greenhouse gasses are the cause of Global Warming.
They're commonly called 'greenhouse gasses'.
Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, trap solar energy in the Earth's atmosphere. This leads to the greenhouse effect, which contributes to global warming and climate change.
Climate change is primarily caused by the increase in greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide and methane. These gases trap heat from the sun, leading to a rise in global temperatures, changes in weather patterns, and other environmental impacts. Human activities, like burning fossil fuels and deforestation, are the main contributors to the increase in greenhouse gases.
No, oil itself is not a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases are gases that trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor. However, when oil is burned or used as a fuel source, it releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
I beileve that the thermal energy is absorbed and into the lithosphere causing bergs to melt- IDK! i saw that on wikipedia! XD
No.
The solar energy that is absorbed in gasses clouds and ozone is little. The UV spectrum is absorbed.
They make everything hotter
China
China produces significantly more greenhouse gasses than the U.S. But, the U.S. is second.

Humorous answer: greenhouse gasses Correct Answer: Carbon dioxide, just like when outside and not in a greenhouse.
No, the greenhouse effect is the effect of certain gasses such as carbon dioxide and methane (called greenhouse gasses) trapping heat near earth's surface. There is a natural greenhouse effect that keeps earth from becoming too cold, but there is some concern that human actions may be putting extra greenhouse gasses into the air and causing average temperatures to rise.
fossil fuels
Ozone, Methane, Water vapor.
Nature creates greenhouse gasses by having cows fart.
