Greenhouse Gas


Greenhouse gas are gasses that absorb and emit radiation in the atmosphere contained within a thermal infrared range. This produces what is better known as the greenhouse effect. Greenhouse gas is essential to maintaining the temperature of the earth.

Without greenhouse gas, we would be unable to habitat the earth as the temperatures would be unbearable. Greenhouse gas is also found in the atmospheres of Mars, Titan, and Venus.

What Are The Earths Greenhouse Gas?

The earth’s most ample supply of greenhouse gas are found in the form of:

  • Carbon Dioxide
  • Water Vapor
  • Nitrous Oxide
  • Ozone
  • Methane
  • CFC’s

Clouds are the most abundant non-gas contributor of the earth’s greenhouse effect. The clouds absorb and emit infrared radiation and has a large impact on the greenhouse gas effects.

The greenhouse gas that is in our atmosphere helps to maintain the earth and keep it livable for us humans.
