How much cooler in degrees Fahrenheit would the earth be right now if there were no greenhouse gases?

"Greenhouse gases" include carbon dioxide, and it is likely the Earth would be much cooler without the comparatively tiny percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere. It would also be devoid of almost all current lifeforms, since plants in the biosphere require CO2 to survive.
NASA estimates that natural global warming (not influenced by the manmade additional warmng) keeps the average surface temperature of the planet at 288K (15°C or 59°F). Without this greenhouse effect, the average surface temperature would be 255°K (-18°C or 0°F) -- in effect, all water on Earth would freeze, the oceans would turn into ice, and life as we know it would not exist.

Without greenhouse gases would the Earth's surface be frozen over?
Yes-- without the Green House Effect, Earth's avg temperature would be 60 degrees F cooler, and our oceans would be frozen. You would freeze. The earth would be pretty well frozen over. The average surface temperature would be about -4 degrees Fahrenheit if there were no greenhouse effect.
How does the temperature of Venus compare to the temperature of Earth?
Venus is much hotter than Earth due to the greenhouse effect. Temperatures on Venus can get as high as 860 degrees Fahrenheit.
If there was no greenhouse effect would you burn or freeze?
You would freeze. The earth would be pretty well frozen over. The average surface temperature would be about -4 degrees Fahrenheit if there were no greenhouse effect.
What is this trapping of heat called?
The trapping of heat by the atmosphere of Venus is called the greenhouse effect, just as it is on Earth. Venus is the second closest planet to the sun and the temperature on the planet reaches 870 degrees Fahrenheit.
What would be the average temperature on earth without the natural greenhouse effect?
Climate scientists estimate that the average temperature on Earth would be colder by approximately 30 degrees Celsius (54 degrees Fahrenheit). With our existing mix of gases in the atmosphere the average temperature on Earth is about 13C. The Earth's temperature without greenhouse gases would be -17C. There would be no life on Earth
What temperature is the mantle in Fahrenheit?
In Fahrenheit the Earth's mantle is ranged from 1400 degrees to 1600 degrees Fahrenheit.
If the earth was 33 degrees Celsius cooler how cool is that in Fahrenheit?
Start by taking the number in Celsius and multiply it by 9. Then divide that number by 5, and then add 32. This is how you convert Celsius to Fahrenheit or use the equation F = (9/5)C + 32In this case, the answer is about 91.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is the average temperature of Earth in Fahrenheit?
58.3 degrees fahrenheit
What would be the temperature on the earth with greenhouse gases?
The earth's overall temperature with greenhouse gases is 76442 degrees F.
What is the temperature in the mantle?
In Fahrenheit the Earth's mantle is ranged from 1400 degrees to 1600 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is the temperature of the lower mantle in Fahrenheit?
1000-1500 degrees Celsius
What is the temperature of earth's core right now and in Fahrenheit?
The earth's core is about 4,300 degrees Celsius. That would equate to 7,700 degrees Fahrenheit.
