Combustion of Fossil Fuels- STUDY GUIDE WITH
COMPLETE VERIFIED SOLUTIONS
Greenhouse Gases - ✔✔Gases that trap heat in Earth's atmosphere.
Greenhouse Effect - ✔✔Process where gases prevent heat escape.
Earth's Average Temperature - ✔✔Determined by balance of incoming and outgoing
energy.
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) - ✔✔Significant greenhouse gas increasing due to human
activity.
Fossil Fuels - ✔✔Natural gas, petroleum, and coal used for energy.
Global Warming - ✔✔Increase in Earth's average temperature from greenhouse
gases.
Temperature Increase Since 1860 - ✔✔Atmospheric CO2 levels risen by 38%.
Temperature Rise - ✔✔Earth's average temperature increased by 1.6 °F.
