'Locked Up Carbon': Carbon trapped in the atmosphere
Longer wavelengths cannot penetrate through greenhouse gases as they trap heat.
Greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere
Why do greenhouse gases increase?
Deforestation as trees absorb Carbondioxide, Burning Fossil fuels e.g. power stations, Methane: Landfills - Materials rotting, Cattle - Give off gas, rice fields
Greenhouse gases: Water Vapour, Carbon Dioxide, Methane
Greenhouse Effect: (Visible Light or Ultraviolet) Short Wavelengths absorbed by the earth is re-raidiated back out to the earths atmosphere as longer waves (Infra red).
Increase in temperature: Melting Ice caps, increased flooding, more frequent storms.
