The blanket around Earth
- Earth stays warm enough for life thanks to its atmosphere.
- Certain gases act like a blanket, holding in heat.
- This is the greenhouse effect 温室效应.
- Without it, our planet would be a frozen ball of ice.
地球周围的毯子
- 地球保持足够温暖以支持生命,多亏它的大气。
- 某些气体像一条毯子,把热量保留在内。
- 这是温室效应(greenhouse effect)。
- 没有它,我们的地球会是一个冻结的冰球。
How it works
- Sunlight passes through the atmosphere and warms the ground.
- The warm ground gives off heat as infrared 红外线.
- Greenhouse gases 温室气体 absorb this escaping heat.
- They send some back down, keeping the surface warm.
它如何工作
- 阳光穿过大气并加热地面。
- 温暖的地面以红外线(infrared)的形式放出热量。
- 温室气体(greenhouse gases)吸收这逃逸的热量。
- 它们把一些送回下面,使地表保持温暖。
The greenhouse effect is when gases in the atmosphere… · 温室效应是当大气中的气体……
The greenhouse effect is greenhouse gases trapping heat, keeping Earth warm enough for life. · 温室效应是温室气体困住热量,使地球足够温暖以支持生命。
The natural effect is good
- The natural greenhouse effect is essential for life.
- It keeps Earth about 33 degrees warmer than it would be.
- Water vapour and CO2 have done this for billions of years.
- Without it, the oceans would freeze solid.
自然的效应是好的
- 自然的温室效应对生命是必不可少的。
- 它使地球比原本温暖约33摄氏度。
- 水蒸气和CO2已经这样做了数十亿年。
- 没有它,海洋会冻成固体。
How the greenhouse effect warms Earth · 温室效应如何使地球变暖
Follow sunlight in, and heat trying to escape, as greenhouse gases hold it back. · 跟随阳光进入,以及试图逃逸的热量,温室气体把它挡回来。
The natural greenhouse effect is… · 自然的温室效应是……
The natural greenhouse effect keeps Earth about 33 C warmer — without it, the planet would freeze. · 自然的温室效应使地球温暖约33摄氏度——没有它,地球会冻结。
The main greenhouse gas released by burning fossil fuels is carbon . · 燃烧化石燃料释放的主要温室气体是二氧化。
Carbon · 碳 dioxide (CO2) is the main greenhouse gas humans add by burning fossil fuels. · 二氧化碳(CO2)是人类通过燃烧化石燃料添加的主要温室气体。
The enhanced effect is the problem
- Burning fossil fuels adds extra carbon dioxide 二氧化碳.
- More greenhouse gases trap more heat.
- This "enhanced" greenhouse effect warms the planet too much.
- That extra warming is what drives climate change.
增强的效应是问题
- 燃烧化石燃料添加额外的二氧化碳(carbon dioxide)。
- 更多的温室气体困住更多的热量。
- 这种"增强"的温室效应使地球变暖太多。
- 那额外的变暖就是驱动气候变化的东西。
Adding extra greenhouse gases strengthens the effect and warms the planet more. · 添加额外的温室气体加强这个效应,使地球变暖更多。
More greenhouse gases trap more heat — the "enhanced" greenhouse effect that drives global warming. · 更多的温室气体困住更多的热量——驱动全球变暖的"增强"温室效应。
Select all · 所有 greenhouse gases. · 选出所有温室气体。
CO2, methane, and water vapour all trap heat. Argon does not absorb infrared, so it is not one. · CO2、甲烷和水蒸气都困住热量。氩不吸收红外线,所以它不是。
The greenhouse effect itself is not the problem — it's what makes Earth livable. The problem is the enhanced greenhouse effect: humans adding extra gases (mainly CO2 from fossil fuels) that trap more heat than the natural balance. So don't say "the greenhouse effect is bad" — say the enhanced greenhouse effect from extra emissions is causing the warming.
温室效应本身不是问题——它使地球宜居。问题是增强的温室效应:人类添加额外的气体(主要是来自化石燃料的CO2),困住的热量比自然平衡更多。所以别说"温室效应是坏的"——要说来自额外排放的增强温室效应正在造成变暖。
A car in the sun:
- Sunlight passes through the windows and warms the seats.
- The warm seats give off infrared heat, but the glass traps it inside.
- The car gets far hotter than the air outside.
- Earth's greenhouse gases work like that glass — and adding more is like rolling the windows up tighter.
太阳下的一辆汽车:
- 阳光穿过车窗并加热座椅。
- 温暖的座椅放出红外线热量,但玻璃把它困在里面。
- 汽车变得比外面的空气热得多。
- 地球的温室气体像那块玻璃——添加更多就像把车窗摇得更紧。
The greenhouse effect is atmospheric gases trapping the infrared heat Earth gives off, keeping the planet warm. The natural effect is essential — without it Earth would freeze. The problem is the enhanced effect: burning fossil fuels adds extra carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, trapping more heat and driving climate change.
温室效应是大气气体困住地球放出的红外线热量,使地球保持温暖。自然的效应必不可少——没有它地球会冻结。问题是增强的效应:燃烧化石燃料添加额外的二氧化碳和其他温室气体,困住更多的热量并驱动气候变化。
