biodiversity.

Carbon Footprints

This category is for questions about the amount of greenhouse gases produced by
various entities.

how does the carbon cycle influence the greenhouse effect?

When fossil fuels are burned for energy (combustion), carbon is

released.Carbon compounds move through plants and animals, the air, the ocean,
and the earth. Carbon present in the air as carbon dioxide contributes to the
"Greenhouse Effect" and related global warming.

Carbon dioxide is responsible for over 60 per cent of the "enhancedgreenhouse

effect." Humans are burning coal, oil, and natural gas at a rate that is much, much
faster than the speed at which these fossil fuels were created.

Does the carbon cycle influence the greenhouse effect?

Yes, the earth's carbon cycle, as well as the water cycle, supports theNATURAL
greenhouse effect. By moving carbon dioxide in and out of the atmosphere the
carbon cycle allow

How is the carbon cycle and the greenhouse effect related?

the carbon cycle is the process of plants using H2O and CO2 to make celulose, and
give off oxygen.
animals then use oxygen and plant material and produce CO2.
that has been going on for millions - billions of years.
it results in somewhat the same amount of CO2 remaining in the atmosphere all the
time.

The natural greenhouse effect is the interaction between solar energy coming to the
ground, and the ground radiating energy, in equal amounts to maintain a stable
temperature.
Water and CO2 are the major gases that cause the earth to not radiate as much
energy away as it would if they were not present.

The greenhouse effect that's commonly talked about today is the increase in earth's
temperature because of the 40% increase in CO2 in the atmosphere that's the result
of all of the coal and oil that we've burned.
The carbon cycle is still active, but is not able to process the additional CO2 in the
atmosphere.

The greenhouse effect is increased when carbon dioxide is released into the
atmosphere.

The "carbon cycle" cycles carbon in the Earth's surface and atmosphere. More
carbon dioxide is being produced into the atmosphere at a higher rate than the rate
at which it is being taken out of atmosphere. Therefore, the greenhouse effect is
getting larger, and increasing the so-called "global warming."

What is the substance that causes the greenhouse effect?

There are several substances that cause the greenhouse effect and they are called
greenhouse gases. The main greenhouse gases are: CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) N2O
