Climate Change - CO₂ Feedback mechanisms

• other trace gases like N₂O, CH₄, and CFCs are also increasing - these are also greenhouse gases

• increased temps will enhance evaporation from oceans -> increased water vapor in atmosphere -> enhanced greenhouse effect

• increased temps will enhance evaporation -> increase amount of low clouds -> increase earth's albedo

• CO₂ will dissolve into the oceans

• Vegetation will remove CO₂ and grow more vigorously
