Natural vs. Enhanced Answer Key

Students complete a comparison chart showing the differences between the natural greenhouse effect and the enhanced greenhouse effect. They fill in key features such as definitions, causes, roles in climate, examples of gases, impacts on life, and temperature effects. This activity helps students analyze how human activities intensify natural processes and contribute to climate change. By organizing ideas side-by-side, learners deepen understanding of atmospheric balance and environmental changes over time.
