This study experimentally investigates and determines the heat flow in and out of the earth surface, and the impact of greenhouse effect on the heat transfer. A high voltage electric bulb was placed between two bottles; an empty bottle containing only air and the other bottle containing a mixture of baking soda and vinegar, evolving CO<sub>2</sub>. </span><span>We observed that the vinegar and baking soda in the filled bottle reacted and produced carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>). This CO<sub>2</sub> absorbs and retains more heat from the high voltage bulb than the empty bottle of normal air.
