The greenhouse effect is the way certain gases in the atmosphere trap heat rising from the surface of the earth. This warming keeps the earth comfortably warm enough for life. Since the Industrial Revolution, 200 years ago, we have been adding extra gases which are now producing an enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
They don't help with global warming naturally but the large buildup of greenhouse gases does assist with global warming.
The natural greenhouse effect (helped by carbon dioxide) keeps the earth warm. This is not harmful.The enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect (from too much carbon dioxide) is causing global warming. This is harmful as it is causing climate change, meaning stronger storms, droughts and flooding.

Greenhouse gasses are the cause of Global Warming.
Greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and methane, mostly) cause global warming by increasing their levels in the atmosphere. This turns the benign greenhouse effect into an accelerated greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
Greenhouse gases cause global warming on earth. This global warming can cause ozone depletion.
Warming that results when solar radiation is trapped by the atmosphere

Global Warming and Heat
Greenhouse gases keep the earth warm.Too much greenhouse gas is causing global warming.
Greenhouse gas hurts the environment by warming up the atmosphere. When Greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane are released, they warm up the temperatures, which aids in global warming.
The name given to warming of the earth due to increased levels of carbon dioxide is global warming. This is a result of the greenhouse effect, where carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to a rise in temperature.
