Yes, the heat for global warming comes initially from the sun.
They don't prevent global warming, they play a small part in reducing global warming. Energy efficient lightbulbs need less energy to produce the same amount of light, as older bulbs also produced heat, which was wasted. Any way of using less energy is useful, especially if everyone does it.
Low-energy light bulbs are a guaranteed way to help the global warming issue, like fluorescent bulbs or LED bulbs.
The sun provides light; the light also keeps the planet warm (too warm, if global warming continues), and enables plants to perform photosynthesis, thereby creating chemical energy as well.

we save electricity, somehow helps global warming, and global warming results in climate change
In nearly everything that we do we are the cause of global warming such as driving a car, turning on a light, or even the smoke from factories.
Wasting energy contributes to global warming, because greenhouse gases are emitted by the generation of that energy whether or not you use it wisely. Turn off appliances that are not in use; replace incandescent light globes by high efficiency ones, use the air conditioning less, or raise the temperature by one or two degrees in summer.
A good rule of thumb is that household appliances consume electricity and therefore contribute to global warming in proportion to the amount of heat they produce. Incandescent light globes work by heating a wire filament until it glows white hot, so they are obviously very heavy users of electricity. Replacing these by modern high-efficiency, low energy lights uses a fraction of the electricity and therefore contributes only a fraction of the carbon emissions that lead to global warming.
When you turn off a light you are helping slow global warming by using less electricity. Most electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This burning releases carbon dioxide, which is causing global warming.
Ice melt is a consequence of global warming, not a cause of it. Though ice reflects light quite well, and as it melts, earth's albedo decreases, resulting in a feedback mechanism which further increases global warming.
A:Global warming is a very big issue in the world today. Global warming is when the earth's temperature rises. The cause of global warming is when greenhouse gases trap heat and light from the sun [in the atmosphere of the earth] causing the earth to heat up. Global warming affects animals and our environment, such as rise in sea levels which will cause extinction for more than a thousand species.
Infra Red Light: Global warming is associated with Infra-Red rays that the earth emits to the atmosphere, where it is absorbed by the greenhouse gases of Carbon Dioxide and water vapor.
