प्रश्न
What is the greenhouse effect?
उत्तर १
Some gases like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide prevent the escape of heat from the Earth’s surface by trapping it. This increases the average temperature of the Earth. This is called the green house effect. An increase in the content of such gases would lead to a situation of global warming.
उत्तर २
The process by which absorption and emission of infra-red radiation by the atmospheric gases warm up the surface of a planet and its lower atmosphere is called green-house effect.
