Energy from the Sun 1 ________ the Earth as heat. Some of this heat
energy is 2____________ radiated into space, while some of it is
trapped by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and reflected back to Earth.
This is a natural process, but in recent 3______, human activities have
4_______ an increase in the 5________ of greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere which is now trapping too much 6______.

One of the main greenhouse gases is carbon dioxide, and extra quantities of
this are 7__________ into the atmosphere8 ___________burning
fossil fuels as a source of energy in power stations, factories and homes.
Exhaust gases from cars and lorries 9__________ further emissions of
10____________.

Plants serve to remove some of the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
byabsorbing it through their leaves. However, as large areas of forest have
been 11_______ in the Amazon and elsewhere, 12______ carbon
dioxide is removed in this way.

Direction: Arrange the following step by step on how greenhouse effect
works (1-6).

_______1. This is trapping extra heat, and causing the Earth's

temperature to rise.
_______2. Human activities such as burning fossil fuels, agriculture and
land clearing are increasing the amount of greenhouse gases released into
the atmosphere.
_______3. Some of this heat is trapped by greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere, keeping the Earth warm enough to sustain life.
_______4. The rest of the sun's energy is absorbed by the land and the
oceans, heating the Earth.
_______5. Solar radiation reaches the Earth's atmosphere - some of this is
reflected back into space.
_______6. Heat radiates from Earth towards space.
