Preservation of our environment is not a liberal or conservative challenge

The react to global warming is in the elimination of private property and production for human need. A socialist world would place a huge priority on alternative energy sources. This is what ecologically-minded socialists have been exploring for quite some time now.

Global warming is when the earth heats up.  It ensues when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) catch heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere, which increases the temperature.  This hurts many people, animals, and plants.  Many cannot take the change, so they breathe the last breath. 

What is the greenhouse effect?

The greenhouse effect is when the temperature increases because the sun’s heat and light is trapped in the earth’s environment.  This is like when heat is trapped in a car. On a very hot day, the car gets hotter when it is out in the parking lot.  This is because the heat and light from the sun can get into the car, by going through the windows, but it can’t get back out.  This is what the greenhouse effect does to the earth.  The heat and light can get through the atmosphere, but it can’t get out.  As a result, the temperature rises.

The greenhouse effect is the process by which absorption and emission of infrared radiation by gases in the atmosphere warm a planet's lower atmosphere and surface. Joseph Fourier in 1824 proposed this situation and first investigated quantitatively by Svante Arrhenius in 1896.

The scribble lines coming from the sun are visible light and the lines and arrows inside the car are infrared light. The sun’s heat can gain entry to the car through the windows but is then trapped.  This makes whatever the place might be an orangery, a car, a building or the earth’s atmosphere, hotter.  

Obviously, naturally taking place of greenhouse gases have a mean warming effect of about 33 °C. 

Greenhouse Gas                                 Cause quantity

Water vapor                            -           36–70 %

Carbon dioxide (CO₂)             -           9–26 %

Methane (CH₄)                        -           4–9 %

Ozone (O₃)                              -           3–7 %

Clouds also affect the radiation balance through cloud forcings similar to greenhouse gases.
