- Synopsis
- This page shows a diagram showing how the greenhouse effect works. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left, when the image is the correct way up. The image is surrounded by an image border. The sun is in the top left of the diagram. It shines down on the Earth and warms the soil shown by heavy arrows. To the right heat rises but most is trapped and reflected back to earth. At the top centre of the diagram two arrows show some heat escaping. In the bottom centre of the diagram is a factory. It has two windows and a tall chimney with smoke coming out. The smoke joins the clouds. To the right is a side view of a car producing smoke as its engine burns fossil fuel. The smoke adds to the clouds which are getting thicker. On the right of the diagram heat is rising again but the greenhouse gases have trapped even more heat so the Earth warms up even more.
