Greenhouse EffectUnquestionably Real
What is Greenhouse Effect?
• Certain Greenhouse gases trap the sun’s heat and keep the Earth warm.
• As there is a mighty increase in the level of these gases they trap more heat than required.
• This has increased the Earth’s temperature leading to GLOBAL WARMING!!!
Greenhouse Gases
• Water Vapor• Carbon Dioxide• Carbon Monoxide• Nitrous Oxide• Methane
Sources of Greenhouse Gases
• Power Plants• Residential Buildings• Road Transport• Deforestation• Energy Industry Processes• Chemical and Petrochemical Industries• Cement, ceramic and glass production• Livestock• Iron and Steel Manufacture
Why are Greenhouse Gases important?
Greenhouse gases are important as they• Keep the Earth’s surface warm• They enable the Earth to sustain life

Global Warming
• Increase in the average temperatures of the Earth
• Increase in the temperature of the seas and oceans
• It is a vital issue
Effects of Global Warming
• Climate Change• Melting of glaciers• Flooding in coastal areas• Increase in sea level• Changes in wildlife adaptations and may
cause extinction of animals• Heavy drought • Spread of diseases
Countries Effected by Global Warming
• Bangladesh • Sudan• Siberia• Australia• Myanmar• Vietnam• Cambodia• Dominican Republic• Philippines and China
Protests Against Global Warming
