Guide Questions:
1. What have you observed on the difference between incoming and outgoing energy at the
top of the Atmosphere? Did it achieve equilibrium, that is the incoming energy equals the
outgoing energy? If yes, why? If not, why?
2. What have you observed on the difference between incoming and outgoing energy at the
Atmosphere? Did it achieve equilibrium, that is the incoming energy equals the outgoing
energy? If yes, why? If not, why?
3. What have you observed on the difference between incoming and outgoing energy at the
Earth's Surface? Did it achieve equilibrium, that is the incoming energy equals the
outgoing energy? If yes, why? If not, why?
4. If this difference between incoming and outgoing energy continues, what do you think
will be the effect of this in the future?
