Which of the following phenomenon is considered responsible for Global Warming?

A. Greenhouse effect

B. Fire in coal mines

C. Dry farming

D. Monsoon

E. Trade winds

Answer: Option A

Solution(By Examveda Team)

The Greenhouse effect is the main thing that causes global warming.
It's like a blanket around the Earth.
Certain gases in the atmosphere (like carbon dioxide) trap heat from the sun.
Normally, some of this heat would escape back into space.
But, when we burn too much fuel (like coal, oil, and gas), we release more of these gases.
This makes the "blanket" thicker, trapping more heat and warming the planet.

Let's look at why the other options are wrong:

B) Fire in coal mines: While coal mine fires are bad for the environment, they don't cause global warming directly on a global scale like the greenhouse effect.

C) Dry farming: Dry farming is a method of farming in dry areas. It can have environmental impacts, but it's not a direct cause of global warming.

D) Monsoon: Monsoon are seasonal winds and rain. They are part of the Earth's climate system, but they don't cause global warming itself. In fact, climate change and global warming can affect monsoon patterns.

E) Trade winds: Trade winds are constant winds in the tropics. Like monsoon, they are part of Earth's climate, not a cause of global warming.

So, the greenhouse effect is the most important thing to understand when talking about global warming!

    The answer for this Q related to global warming is wrong .
    'Green house effect' is nothing but a phenomena. It is not in itself a cause of global warming.
    The answer would be correct if it was ' green house gases'
    Please see to it.
