Lesson12
Most greenhouses look like a small glass house. Greenhouses are used to grow
plants, especially in winter. Greenhouses work by trapping heat from the sun. The
glass panels of the greenhouse let in light but keep heat from escaping. This
causes the greenhouse to heat up, much like the inside of a car parked in sunlight,
and keeps the plants warm enough to live in winter.
The Greenhouse effect is the rise in temperature that the Earth experiences because certain
gases in the atmosphere (water vapour, carbon dioxide, and others) trap energy from the sun.
Without these gases the temperature drops.
The Greenhouse effect is important. Without the greenhouse effect, the Earth
would not be warm enough for humans to live. But if the greenhouse effect
becomes stronger, it could make the Earth warmer than usual. Even a little extra
warming may cause problems for humans, plants, and animals. That is called
GLOBAL WARMING.
