Question

The best solution to combat the greenhouse effect is?
A. To use diesel vehicles
B. To stop infra-red from entering the earth
C. Afforestation and grow abundant plants
D. All of the above

Answer 1

Greenhouse effect is a phenomenon of greenhouses, in which greenhouse gases trap the heat in the atmosphere of the Earth and results in the increase in the temperature, which have many adverse effects on the human and others survival.

Complete answer:
Greenhouses were made to increase the crop productivity and to have more profit from the crop. But due to its adverse effects on the environment, a phenomenon called the “greenhouse effect” has been generated. This is caused by an increasing amount of greenhouse gases like $C{O_2}$ in the atmosphere. These gases cover our planet just like a blanket and do not allow the heat to escape which leads to increase in the temperature of the atmosphere and makes it difficult to the survival of life.
Main greenhouse gas is $C{O_2}$ and the amount of $C{O_2}$ can be reduced if consumption of $C{O_2}$ is increased. Now, only plants are the organisms which use $C{O_2}$ and release the ${O_2}$. Thus, if tree plantation is increased then, we can save our precious planet from global warming.
Thus, we can conclude that, among the available options, the best option to reduce the effect of greenhouse gases is afforestation which means tree plantation by natural and artificial methods and growing abundant plants.

So, option ‘C’ is the correct option.

Note: Greenhouse gases also generate naturally but they maintain the temperature, which is required for survival but human activities like burning of fossil fuels, factories, etc. increasing the amount of these gases and causing global warming.
