What is happening at #1?

• Earth's surface absorbs energy, heats up

• Surface gives off energy as infrared (IR) radiation (heat) in long wavelengths

•   Short (high energy) wavelengths pass through atmosphere without being absorbed

• Some IR escapes; Some absorbed by greenhouse gases and heats atmosphere
