Description

Abstract:    
     The greenhouse effect is a crucial natural phenomenon that controls the temperature of the Earth and makes it possible for life to exist. Carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and water vapor are all greenhouse gases (GHGs) that contribute to this process by trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere. Because of these gases, sunlight can freely enter the atmosphere, where it is absorbed by the Earth's surface and re-emitted as heat in the form of infrared radiation. This infrared radiation is absorbed by greenhouse gases, which then re-radiate it in all directions, including back toward the Earth's surface, warming the planet. Despite the fact that the greenhouse effect is necessary for sustaining a climate that is suitable for human use, human activities have significantly increased the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases, resulting in an enhanced greenhouse effect and warming of the planet. The use of fossil fuels, deforestation, industrial processes, and agricultural practices are all major contributors to this rise. The resultant climb in worldwide temperatures significantly affects normal biological systems and human social orders, appearing in additional successive and serious climate occasions, rising ocean levels, and disturbances to food and water supplies. The mechanisms of the greenhouse effect, its role in climate regulation, and the effects of its intensification due to human activities are examined in this abstract. Strategies for mitigating and adapting to the effects of climate change require an understanding of these dynamics. While adaptation involves preparing for and managing the unavoidable effects of a changing climate, effective mitigation requires reducing greenhouse gas emissions through sustainable practices, the adoption of renewable energy, and conservation efforts. In the face of the growing climate crisis, this dual approach is essential for preserving environmental stability and human well-being
