The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ( IPCC ) has concluded that " of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations.

This campaign is linked to the recognition of the detrimental environmental effects of meat production, which the United Nations ' Food and Agriculture Organization has established to represent nearly one-fifth of global greenhouse gas emissions.

The effect of combustion-produced carbon dioxide on the global climate, a special case of the greenhouse effect first described in 1896 by Svante Arrhenius, has also been called the Callendar effect.

It has also been demonstrated experimentally ( R. W. Wood, 1909 ) that a " greenhouse " with a cover of rock salt ( which is transparent to infra red ) heats up an enclosure similarly to one with a glass cover.

In the Solar System, Mars, Venus, and the moon Titan also exhibit greenhouse effects ; that on Venus is particularly large, due to its atmosphere, which consists mainly of dense carbon dioxide Titan has an anti-greenhouse effect, in that its atmosphere absorbs solar radiation but is relatively transparent to infrared radiation.

Carbon dioxide has a GWP of exactly 1 ( since it is the baseline unit to which all other greenhouse gases are compared ).

The surface temperature of Earth has been relatively constant through geologic time despite varying levels of incoming solar radiation ( insolation ), indicating that a dynamic process governs Earth's temperature via a combination of greenhouse gases and surface or atmospheric albedo.

The most talked-about use of climate models in recent years has been to project temperature changes resulting from increases in atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases.

By inputting data on the ratio of stable isotopes < sup > 18 </ sup > O :< sup > 16 </ sup > O into computer models, it has been shown that in conjunction with quick-weathering of volcanic rock, this increased rainfall may have reduced greenhouse gas levels to below the threshold required to trigger the period of extreme glaciation known as Snowball Earth.

Deep sea deposition of carbon dioxide clathrate has been proposed as a method to remove this greenhouse gas from the atmosphere and control climate change.

At the same time, agriculture has been shown to produce significant effects on climate change, primarily through the production and release of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, but also by altering the Earth's land cover, which can change its ability to absorb or reflect heat and light, thus contributing to radiative forcing.

The novel is set in 2025 ; as a result of global warming and the greenhouse effect, the climate has drastically changed, and, accordingly, biodiversity is a thing of the past.

Some organizations have been campaigning against legislation which has outlawed line-drying of clothing in public places, especially given the increased greenhouse gas emissions produced by clothes dryers.

Donkey Kong has taken refuge in his greenhouse and it is now up to Stanley to stop the ape from stirring up any more insects that will soon destroy his flowers.

But such warming could slowly raise ocean temperatures until frozen methane reservoirs below the ocean floor near coastlines ( a current target for a new energy source ) melted, expelling enough methane, among the most potent greenhouse gases, into the atmosphere to raise world temperatures an additional five degrees Celsius.

The first floor contains various classrooms and zoology and research labs for the biology department, as well as a greenhouse.

The main building is similar to an A-shape and consists of four floors and a greenhouse as the fifth floor.

As the temperature rises, the amount of water in the atmosphere would increase, causing further greenhouse warming of the surface, and if it rose enough, it could cause the sublimation of methane clathrate deposits on the sea floor, releasing huge amounts of methane, a greenhouse gas, into the atmosphere, perhaps enough to trigger runaway climate change.

Opened in September 2009, the fourth floor features three new chemistry and three new biology laboratories, as well as a greenhouse.

On November 10, the first anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone, the new T-shaped main building was dedicated and featured on ego the state's most complete science departments with experimental switchboards, fume cabinets, and a greenhouse over the biology rooms ; a print shop that handled printing for both high schools and the junior college ( now present-day College of San Mateo ); a Tudor design library ; and a dumbwaiter for fast communication between the principal's office and the superintendent's office on the second floor.

The radiative forcing capacity ( RF ) is the amount of energy per unit area, per unit time, absorbed by the greenhouse gas, that would otherwise be lost to space.

The equable temperatures may reflect the presence of larger amounts of greenhouse gases than later in the Earth's history .< ref name = " Pavlov "> Alternatively, Earth's albedo may have been lower at the time, due to less land area and cloud cover.

; Zone 1: The zone nearest to the house, the location for those elements in the system that require frequent attention, or that need to be visited often, such as salad crops, herb plants, soft fruit like strawberries or raspberries, greenhouse and cold frames, propagation area, worm compost bin for kitchen waste, etc.

Damage occurrence can include infrastructure ( e. g. damage to access roads by heavy vehicles ); pollution of the local environment ( such as contamination of groundwater and / or aquifers by leakage or sinkholes and residual soil contamination during landfill usage, as well as after landfill closure ); offgassing of methane generated by decaying organic wastes ( methane is a greenhouse gas many times more potent than carbon dioxide, and can itself be a danger to inhabitants of an area ); harbouring of disease vectors such as rats and flies, particularly from improperly operated landfills, which are common in developing countries ; injuries to wildlife ; and simple nuisance problems ( e. g., dust, odour, vermin, or noise pollution ).
