How is air pollution linked to green house effect and global warming?

with burning fossil fuels in industry and automobiles there is a great accumulation of carbon dioxide,which forms a layer over the earth's surface.
the earth absorbs the sun rays during the day and gets heated up, then at night this heat is reflected back into space.the carbon dioxide absorbs the heat more and hinders the heat to reflect back into space. in this way it adds more heat to the earth. this is called global warming.
now this is similar to what the green house does ,where the plants are kept who need light aswell as heat to grow. the glass allows the heat to enter the green house but doesn't allow it to escape back.
