I WONDER - How Dangerous Are Greenhouse Gases?

The video explains how greenhouse gases are produced through burning fossil fuels and deforestation, leading to global warming. This warming causes ice caps to melt and increases forest fire risks. Additionally, these gases can damage the ozone layer, reducing our protection from the sun.

What are the primary sources of greenhouse gases mentioned in the video?

• Volcanic eruptions and ocean currents

• Burning fossil fuels and deforestation

• Animal respiration and plant photosynthesis

• Solar flares and wind patterns

What is the process called when greenhouse gases trap heat from the sun?

• Ozone depletion

• Global warming

• Acid rain

• Photosynthesis

Which of the following is a potential effect of global warming?

• Increased snowfall

• Expansion of deserts

• Decreased sea levels

• Melting of ice caps

How can greenhouse gases affect the ozone layer?

• By creating a bigger hole

• By turning it into a greenhouse gas

• By making it more reflective

• By strengthening it

What risk is increased due to the rise in global temperatures?

• Earthquakes

• Hurricanes

• Forest fires

• Flooding
