ppt about green house gases.

1. Green house gases

2. Greenhouse gases are gases in Earth's atmosphere that trap heat, preventing it from escaping into space, which leads to the warming of the planet carbon dioxide (CO2) methane (CH4) nitrous oxide (N2O) fluorinated gases

3. Sources of Greenhouse Gases Natural sources Volcanic Eruption Respiration Decaying of Organic M ater Oceans Wetlands Human-Made Sources Burning of Fossil F uels Deforestation Industrial processes Landfills and waste management Refrigerants

4. Effects of Greenhouse Gases Global Warming: Increase in Earth's average temperature due to trapped heat Climate Change: Altered weather patterns, more extreme weather events, and shifts in climate zones Rising Sea Levels: Melting polar ice and thermal expansion of seawater lead to higher sea levels, threatening coastal areas Ocean Acidification: CO2 absorbed by oceans lowers pH, harming marine life and coral reefs Environmental Impact: Loss of biodiversity, habitat destruction, and changes in ecosystems Health Effects: Poor air quality, heatwaves, and increased spread of diseases due to changing climates
