Greenhouses • Also called Glasshouses • They are buildings where plants are grown. They vary in sizes from small sheds to very large buildings • Miniature greenhouses are known as Cold Frames
The process of the Greenhouse • Heats up!(glass is transparent) Warm up the house in cold days!
USES OF THE GREENHOUSE! • protect crops from too much heat or cold • shield plants from dust storms and blizzards • help to keep out pests
The greenhouse Effect! :D • A process by which thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by atmospheric greenhouse gases, and is re-radiated in all directions
Greenhouse Gases! • Gases in the atmosphere that absorb and emit radiations within the thermal infrared range.
The most important greenhouse gases in Earth’s atmosphere are:
The atmosphere as a greenhouse! Warm up the earth on cold days!
Greenhouse Gases have a great affect on the temperature of the Earth; without them, Earth's surface would be on average about 34 °C (59 °F) colder
Greenhouse effect on Canada • Northern regions are expected to be particularly hard hit. The Canadian Arctic is already experiencing warmer weather, shorter winters, melting permafrost, wildlife impacts and disruptions of traditional Inuit lifestyles.
