The three (3) primary heat absorbing gases in the atmosphere are (CHOOSE THREE):

• Carbon dioxide

• Water vapor

• Nitrogen

• Hydrogen

• Methane

What do greenhouse gases do in our atmosphere?

• They absorb radiation given off by the Earth

• They keep all the air within the Earth

• They block harmful radiation from reaching the Earth

• They make the Earth cooler

How does the change in carbon dioxide over the last two hundred (200) years impact the climate on Earth.

• Carbon dioxide has no impact on climate.

• An increase in carbon dioxide leads to greater absorption of energy from the Earth, warming the atmosphere.

• An increase in carbon dioxide leads to greater reflection of energy from the Sun, cooling the atmosphere.
