The greenhouse effect is a process where thermal radiation from a planetary surface is absorbed by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and re-radiated in all directions Since part of this re-radiation is directed towards the surface, energy is transferred to the surface and the lower atmosphere As a result, the temperature there is higher than it would be if direct heating by solar radiation were the only warming mechanism.
In 1827, Joseph Fourier recognized the significance of the greenhouse effect on Earth's climate He highlighted that the atmosphere is relatively transparent to solar radiation but highly absorptive to thermal radiation This preferential trapping is responsible for raising the temperature of Earth's surface.
The greenhouse effect refers to the process by which short-wave energy from the sun is absorbed by the Earth's surface and re-radiated as long-wave infrared radiation This effect is influenced by greenhouse gases, which trap and emit long-wave radiation, leading to an increase in atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases (GHGs) The resulting warming of the lower atmosphere and Earth's surface is essential for the survival of most living organisms The greenhouse effect stabilizes the temperature of the biosphere and filters harmful radiation, thus protecting the ecological system However, human activities have increased greenhouse gas emissions, enhancing the greenhouse effect and contributing to climate change Indicators of climate change include global temperature rise, sea level increase, changes in precipitation patterns, and the rise of extreme weather events.

Climate change refers to a significant alteration in the state of the climate that can be identified through statistical tests, indicating changes in the mean and variability of climate properties This phenomenon persists over extended periods, typically decades or longer, and encompasses any change in climate over time, regardless of the cause.
The change in climate attributed to human activity significantly alters the composition of the global atmosphere and contributes to natural climate variability observed over comparable time periods.

The increase in sea level is closely related to the warming of the Earth Recent years have shown a clearer trend in sea level rise, with a global average increase of 3.1 mm per year from 1993 to 2003, which is higher than the 1.8 mm per year observed from 1961 to 2003 This rise is primarily attributed to thermal expansion of the oceans (57%), along with decreases in glaciers and ice caps (28%) and losses from polar ice sheets (15%).
The decrease in snow and ice is closely related to the warming of the Earth The annual average sea ice in Antarctica has declined by approximately 2.7% per decade, with a more significant reduction of 7.4% per decade observed during the summer months Glaciers and snow in mountains across both hemispheres have also experienced a decline Additionally, the extent of frozen ground in the Northern Hemisphere has decreased by about 7% since the last assessment.

The climate is changing, leading to severe weather patterns The temperature during the beginning months of winter decreases, while it increases towards the end of the season Seasonal rainfall diminishes in July and August but rises in September, October, and November Sea levels have risen at an average rate of about 2.5 to 3 cm per decade Storms, floods, and droughts have become more frequent in recent years Due to climate change, the sea water level in Vietnam is projected to rise by 33 cm by 2050 and 45 cm by 2070 If the sea level increases to 90 cm by 2100, significant areas in the Red River Delta, northern central coastal regions, and the Mekong Delta will be submerged underwater.

Stage 3 – Aet0genesis: The products from aet0genesis serve as substrates for other microorganisms In this process, homo-aet0genesis constantly converts exergonic H2 and CO2 to aetate, aiding in the next step according to the following reaction: CO2 + 4H2 = C4H300H + H2O.
Stage 4 – Methanogenic Phase: This final step of the anaerobic digestion process involves methanogenic microorganisms converting products from the third stage into methane, carbon dioxide, and water This phase effectively generates energy and takes place under the stringent anaerobic environmental conditions The microorganisms in this stage are obligate anaerobes and are highly sensitive to environmental changes.
