Nitrogen is not a greenhouse gas because it does not absorb infrared radiation.

The burning of fossil fuels releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which trap heat and cause the Earth's temperature to rise.

Coal is the most carbon-intensive fossil fuel, meaning that it releases the most carbon dioxide when burned.

The greenhouse effect is the process by which the Earth's atmosphere traps heat from the sun, causing the Earth's temperature to rise.

Natural gas is a fossil fuel, which is not a renewable energy source.

Global warming is the term for the increase in the Earth's average temperature due to the greenhouse effect.

Climate change is generally associated with negative consequences, such as rising sea levels, more extreme weather events, and loss of biodiversity. Improved air quality is not a consequence of climate change.

Conduction is the process by which the Earth's surface absorbs and releases heat through direct contact with the air or other objects.

Oxygen is not a greenhouse gas because it does not absorb infrared radiation.

Convection is the process by which the Earth's atmosphere circulates heat through the movement of air masses.

Nuclear energy is not a renewable energy source because it relies on the use of uranium, which is a finite resource.

Radiation is the process by which the Earth's atmosphere absorbs and releases heat through the emission and absorption of electromagnetic waves.

Climate change is generally associated with negative consequences, such as rising sea levels, more extreme weather events, and loss of biodiversity. Increased agricultural productivity is not a consequence of climate change.

Evaporation is the process by which the Earth's surface absorbs and releases heat through the conversion of water from a liquid to a gas.

Geothermal energy is not a renewable energy source because it relies on the use of heat from the Earth's interior, which is a finite resource.
