Impacts of the Green House effect

The Green House effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth experiences because certain gases in the atmosphere trap energy from the sun. These gases are transparent to the radiation from the sun, but opaque to outgoing radiation by the Earth. This is a natural phenomenon responsible for maintenance of the temperature which makes life possible. Without such a phenomenon our planet would experience extreme temperatures just like on the Moon. However, due to the increase in man’s activities, the temperature is continuously on the increase leading to global warming. Global warming is having several negative impacts on the world, such as our health, natural resources and man’s activities.


Our health largely depends on the climate of the area in which we live. Extreme temperatures may lead to los...
