The Silestone countertop I purchased is actually a composite of natural and man-made materials as opposed to granite which is strictly a natural stone product.
A greenhouse gas (GHG) is any gas in the atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation in the thermal infrared range. These are the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect, which results in increased temperatures on Earth. The greenhouse effect occurs as the gases reach Earthâs surface. As the short wave energy heats the surface, some of the longer wave energy radiates back into the atmosphere and back into space. Greenhouse gases absorb some of the energy and trap it in the lower atmosphere.
The cause of global warming is human activity, specifically the burning of fossil fuels which releases millions of tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year.As the amount of carbon dioxide increases in the atmosphere, more of the sun's radiant energy is trapped as heat, causing global warming.Other activities that are contributing to global warming include massive deforestation projects and the emission of methane and several other air pollutants.he cause of global warming is human activity, specifically the burning of fossil fuels which releases millions of tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere every year.
