Слайд 9GREENHOUSE EFFECT

Слайд 10GREENHOUSE EFFECT
Human activities are causing greenhouse gas levels in the

atmosphere to increase.
Solar energy is absorbed by the earth's

surface, causing the earth to warm and to emit infrared radiation. The greenhouse gases then trap the infrared radiation, thus warming the atmosphere.

This is called GLOBAL WARMING.

GREENHOUSE EFFECTHuman activities are causing greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere to increase. Solar energy is absorbed

chemicals, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) used in air-conditioners, refrigerators…

The ozone layer blocks 90-99% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet radiation, which causes skin cancer, genetic damage, and eye damage, and is harmful to marine life.
