The greenhouse effect is natural
in origin. Greenhouse gases naturally existing in the troposphere
allow a majority of solar radiation to pass through to the surface
of the Earth, |
| |
but prevent most of the
infrared radiation from escaping the Earth. This raises the average
temperature of the Earth about thirty-three degrees Celsius, making
it habitable for humans and other living organisms. |
