HOTTER THAN

EVER
GREEN HOUSE EFFECT
Scientific
Explanation
Greenhouse effects
• Sunlight enters the Earth's atmosphere, passing
through the blanket of greenhouse gases. As it
reaches the Earth's surface, land, water, and
biosphere absorb the sunlight’s energy. Once
absorbed, this energy is sent back into the
atmosphere. Some of the energy passes back into
space, but much of it remains trapped in the
atmosphere by the greenhouse gases, causing our
world to heat up.
• The greenhouse effect is the rise in
temperature that the Earth experiences
because certain gases in the atmosphere
(water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide,
and methane, for example) trap energy from
the sun.
• The glass panels of the greenhouse let in light
but keep heat from escaping
• if the greenhouse effect becomes stronger, it
could make the Earth warmer than usual. Even
a little extra warming may cause problems for
humans, plants, and animals.

ENGAGE
Why???
• What do you see in the previous picture?
• What do you think after seeing this picture?
Explain the phenomenon regarding the
previous picture.
• What cause this phenomenon to happen?
• What other phenomenon that resemble to
this situation?
• How this situation can be applied in our daily
life?
EMPOWER
Materials:
1 Jar or other see-through container
Data logger with heat sensor
Sunlamp or access to a sunny area
to perform the experiment

Instructions
• 1) Place the both heat sensor in the sunlight for a few minutes to let them
get warm.
• 2) Record the readings of the sensor at the top of the columns of the table
as initial temperature.
• 3) Record the time next to the starting temperatures and place the jar over
the 1 of the sensor. The other sensor was act as control.
• 4) Every minute, record the readings of both thermometers without
disturbing them.
• Continue the experiment for one day to see the changes of temperature in
the jar.
RESULT
DISCUSSION
• What can you monitor about the effect of
temperature in the jar for the whole day?
• What can you conclude about the pattern of
both graph?
• How do you explain the purpose of this
experiment? How they relate to each other?
ENHANCE

phenomenon to
happen?
2. How this
phenomenon could
be stopped?
