GRADE LEVEL PASSAGE RATING SHEET Prompt: Have you ever seen a greenhouse? How do gases affect the temperature? Read and find out.

The Greenhouse Effect

For 10,000 years, the Earths surface temperature remained steady at 14C with 3% carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) in the atmosphere. This produced greenhouse gas and water vapor. Today, greenhouse gases trap heat, keeping Earth warm with water vapor, CO 2 , methane and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). People contribute to make temperature warm. Their increased electric consumption has resulted to 25% CO 2 in atmosphere; allowing more water vapor that multiplies the increase in temperature. Scientists think that the Earth would grow warmer by 4-9% by 2050, resulting to drought that might wipe out some animal species.
