1. The GREENHOUSE EFFECT is the warming of earth’s atmosphere due to the build-up of heat-
trapping gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane.
2. The GLOBAL WARMING is the gradual increase in the overall temperature of earth’s atmosphere
due to the greenhouse effects. This effect is caused by increased levels of greenhouse gases
such as CARBON DIOXIDE, chlorofluorocarbons, methane, and other gases in the air, many of
them released by human activity.
3. CLIMATE CANGE is any substantial change in earth’s climate that last for an extended period. It
brings drastic effects to people, plants, and animals.
4. The EL NIÑO phenomena happens when the temperature in the eastern Pacific Ocean rises
above normal.
5. The LA NIÑA phenomena occurs when the temperature in eastern Pacific Ocean decreases
below normal.
