A representation of the exchanges of energy between the source (the Sun), the Earth's surface, the Earth's atmosphere, and the ultimate sink outer space. The ability of the atmosphere to capture and recycle energy emitted by the Earth surface is the defining characteristic of the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is a process by which thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases, and is re-radiated in all directions. The greenhouse effect is a process by which thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases, and is re-radiated in all directions. this are effect of green house in our society and it also a step to prevent global warming. that all the people suffer right now.

That trap the Suns energy Water vapor (H2O) Carbon dioxide (CO2) Nitrous oxide (N2O) Methane (CH4) Heat would escape back into space Earths temperature would be 60F colder Makes Earth suitable for life Trap heat from sun Glass lets in light Glass keeps heat from escaping Causes greenhouse to heat up Glass lets in light Glass keeps heat from escaping Causes the car to heat up Suns energy passes through atmosphere 26% is reflected or scattered 19% absorbed by clouds, gases, and particles 4% reflected to space by surface 51% reaches the surface Heating of the ground Melting of ice and snow Evaporation of water Plant photosynthesis Deforestation and agriculture Burning of fossil fuels, gasoline, oil Burning of wood and coal CFCs Population Growth http://earthguide.ucsd.edu/earthguide/diagrams/greenhouse/
