About This Presentation

The greenhouse effect is a process that occurs when gases in Earth's atmosphere trap the Sun's heat to make the earth surface warmer leading to global warming.

GREEN HOUSE EFFECT The atmosphere allows most of the visible light from the Sun to pass through and reach Earth’s surface. As Earth’s surface is heated by sunlight, it radiates part of this energy back toward space as infrared radiation. This radiation, unlike visible light, tends to be absorbed by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, raising its temperature. The heated atmosphere in turn radiates infrared radiation back toward Earth’s surface heating it further. The  greenhouse effect  is a warming of the earth's surface and lower atmosphere by green house gases.  

GREEN HOUSE EFFECT Although the greenhouse effect is a naturally occurring phenomenon, it is possible that the effect could be intensified by the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere as the result of human activity . The magnitude of the enhanced greenhouse effect is influenced by various complex interactions in the earth-ocean-atmosphere system. Runaway Greenhouse Effect is a phenomenon occurs when the planet absorbs more radiations than it can radiate back. Thus, the heat lost from the earth’s surface is less and the temperature of the planet keeps rising.

IMPACT OF GREEN HOUSE EFFECT

GREEN HOUSE EFFECT MITIGATION By reductions in the concentrations of greenhouse gases, either by reducing their sources or by increasing capacity of their sinks . By reducing energy demand by increasing energy efficiency, phasing out fossil fuels by switching to low-carbon energy  sources. By adopting  renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and hydro power. By developing more sustainable transport  and use of biofuels. By sustainable uses of land and forests resources / reforestation. Promote innovation and technology transfer for sustainable energy breakthroughs.
