Carbon dioxide (CO2), if you mean the enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming. This carbon is released by the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity.
there are various greenhouse gases in earth atmosphere. the most common of them all is CO2 and methane. these gases lock up the heat energy came from the solar radiation and increases the temperature of the earth atmosphere.
CO2 is also greenhouse gases. CO2 stands for Carbon Oxygen 2
One carbon element and 2 oxyen elements!
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
CO2, H2O, methane.
A greenhouse gas is a gas that absorbs infrared radiation, traps heat in the atmosphere, and contributes to the greenhouse effect. Carbon dioxide, methane and chlorofluorocarbons are examples of greenhouse gases.
Nitrous Oxide is the third greenhouse gas.........
No, Ammonia is not considered a greenhouse gas.
Water vapour is a greenhouse gas that traps heat rising from the surface of the earth. In doing so it contributes to the natural greenhouse effect.
if you're asking why are the collective gases that are damaging the atmosphere called greenhouse gases the answer iswhen sun rays enter the earth to warm it up, when they try to leave the greenhouse gases reflect them back again stopping them from leavingthe earth is slowly heating up from this (global warming) and so people blame the greenhouse gases (which mainly humans are causing)we have called them greenhouse gases because the process of blocking the sun rays from leaving is the same technique that greenhouses use.
Carbon monoxide is not usually called a greenhouse gas. It does absorb infrared radiation and trap heat in the atmosphere, which is the definition of a greenhouse gas, but carbon monoxide is very reactive and soluble, so its molecules do not remain in the atmosphere for any significant time.Carbon Dioxide is a serious greenhouse gas, not Carbon Monoxide.
It is called global warming because of greenhouse effect.and greenhouse effect happens when there is too much greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. Greenhouse gas is used for trapping some of the sun's heat for the earth's warmth.And when there are too much Greenhouse gas, all of the sun's heat gets trapped inside the earth, causing the earth's temperature to rise. Greenhouse effect is normally caused by human activities such as burning fossil fuels.

Yes, gas is a noun. Greenhouse here is an adjective describing 'gas'. Together they make a noun phrase, 'Greenhouse gas'.

Natural gas is a greenhouse gas, methane, and when it is burnt it releases the other greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide.
Methane. It's also called natural gas.
greenhouse gas
Yes, ozone is a greenhouse gas. Any gas with three or more atoms in their molecule are greenhouse gases.
carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.
