    his process warms the air and is called the greenhouse e&ect. 't produces a !lanket of

    warm air around the (arth. Without the greenhouse e&ect, the (arth)s surface would !eat a constant *+ degrees. his temperature is not warm enough to sustain life on (arth.

    he greenhouse e&ect is not a negati"e thing. 't is the releasing of more gases due tohuman acti"ities that ha"e many scientists feeling that with more gases, we may changeworld climates. here are many uncertainties, and e"idence of glo!al warming isinterpreted di&erently !y scientists.
