42
how does carbon move from the air into the oceans
the c02 is taken by cold oceans trapping the air in and the warmer air releasing it
43
what air the greenhouse affect
It’s a layer of gases that let light come through into the Earths atmosphere but they don’t let heat escape so the light travels back up to the gases and some go into space but most bounces from the gases.keeping the heat inside the earths atmosphere
44
how are humans causing global warming
In the greenhouse effect with the extra heat produced by the feuls,the world has too much heat in the atmosphere from the light and fuel
45
how have c02 levels risen
