The Earth’s average global temperature is 1.2 degrees Celsius (around 2.2 degrees Fahrenheit) hotter than in preindustrial times, causing shifts in weather patterns and more frequent and severe ...

Think of a greenhouse. It’s a structure with glass walls that lets light in and traps heat, all for the benefit of the plants inside. As for how it works, that’s elementary! It’s all down to the ...

Scientists have found a way to turn carbon dioxide and methane, the two most notorious greenhouse gases, into useful ...

For the first time, a team of researchers has simulated what would happen if trapped greenhouse gases in the Earth’s atmosphere trigger a snowball effect, causing a dramatic rise in the planet’s ...

Catalytic dry reforming of methane (DRM) offers a promising strategy for the sustainable utilization of greenhouse gases, CH4 ...

So much focus and debate on global warming keeps greenhouse gases as a hot topic recently. Initially it may seem that because of this the greenhouse effect has a negative impact on our planet. However ...

The greenhouse effect is the process in which the emission of infrared radiation by the atmosphere warms a planet's surface. The name comes from an analogy with the warming of air inside a greenhouse ...

Greenhouses gases aren’t the boogeyman they’re sometimes made out to be. In fact, we desperately need some in Earth’s atmosphere to survive. Without any naturally occurring greenhouse gases, Earth ...

The Trump administration is preparing to upend a foundational scientific determination about the harms of greenhouse gases ...

The climate-changing greenhouse effect exists and has been directly measured in the United States, a new study reports. The results confirm what scientists had already proved through models and ...

The year was 1827 when French scientist Jean-Baptiste Fourier indicated the similarity between what happens under the glass of a greenhouse and how heat is absorbed in the atmosphere. This led to the ...
