Hey guys, Alex Renaud from Feenix Gear here bringing you some more cool points on some environmental facts. Today I have decided to blog about "the Green House effect". This to some people means nothing, hopefully after reading this you'll be a little more cautious.
The Greenhouse gas's effect of our planet, they are something that we should be aware of and also should be trying to do something to prevent it from getting any worse. If you are completely unaware of what the "Green House effect" is, its basically our atmosphere trapping in the heat energy from the sun that then heats up our atmosphere.
If you want to make things a little easier. Picture a Green House, the ones with glass panels forming its walls and roof. These small houses work because they trap the heat from the sun inside. The glass panels let in the sun light while also keeping the warmth inside, this allows the greenhouse to heat up much like a black car parked under the sun, the heat allows us to grow plants, especially in the winter time.
Now move away from the greenhouses and think of our planet. Our air, soil, tree's everything around us. Greenhouse gas's are similar to the glass panels on the greenhouses. As sunlight enters our atmosphere it pass's through a blanket of greenhouse gas's, eventually it reaches the earths surface and is absorbed. Once absorbed the sunlight energy is pitched back into our atmosphere, some of the energy emits itself back into the universe but most of it remains trapped in our atmosphere because of the greenhouse gas blanket. It has become a great problem because now our planet is heating up bit by bit each day. Without these gas's the earth would be able to maintain its normal temperature of 60 degree's F.
This energy entrapment is a direct result of many of the things that are happening around the world today. Many of our glaciers up North are disappearing rapidly, along with many other global issues such as the massive amount of hurricane's in the United States. Greenhouse gas's are now an every day problem that still need a solution. Greenhouse gas's are real and we do need to watch how we treat our planet.
Take a look at the picture up top... those mountains used to be completely covered in snow.... take a good look at how much snow remains...
