Question

An increase in the levels of CO₂ in the atmosphere increases the temperature of Earth.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Levels of Carbon dioxide

1. The carbon dioxide(CO₂) and other gases that are present in the atmosphere perform a blanketing effect in which all the gases cover the atmosphere.
2. After the covering of the atmosphere the sun's energy that is present in the atmosphere does not go back into space resulting in an increase in the temperature of the Earth.
3. Thus, the increase in the levels of CO₂ in the atmosphere increases the temperature of Earth.

Final answer: The given statement is true.
