Across
- 4. 85 percent of the greenhouse effect is by this
- 6. non toxic, non flammable chemicals that contain carbon, chlorine, fluorine
- 11. coldest atmospheric layer
- 13. reflects absorbed heat in all directions of the earth
- 16. the lightest atmospheric gases such as hydrogen and helium exist in this layer
- 20. released by humans not natural
- 21. caused by burning of fossil fuels and growth of animal agriculture
- 22. occurs in the process of photosynthesis
- 23. 90% of the ozone layer is found here
- 25. a set of layers of gases surrounding the earth. It is set in place by gravity
- 26. a source of greenhouse emissions
Down
- 1. longest lasting greenhouse gasses emitted by human activities
- 2. natural gas that comes from sources such as wetlands,and thermogenic sources such as oil and gas production
- 3. chemical equation for carbon dioxide
- 5. 0.93 percent of the earth's atmosphere is composed of this
- 7. Occurs when population increases, which causes more carbon dioxide to release
- 8. largest amount of gas in the atmosphere
- 9. the atmospheric layers are based on this
- 10. occurs when the planet absorbs more energy from the sun than it can radiate back to space
- 12. the hottest layer in the atmosphere
- 14. chemical equation for methane
- 15. carbon travels from the atmosphere into organisms and the earth and back into the atmosphere
- 17. enters the atmosphere from the ocean
- 18. forms during the burning of fossil fuels
- 19. this layer grows and shrinks depending on the energy it absorbs from the sun
- 24. densest atmospheric layer
