This has been dubbed "the greenhouse effect" (even though it is not related to how a greenhouse operates). The greenhouse effect is your friend - this would be a cold, dead planet otherwise. Of course, you get global warming if you introduce higher quantities of gasses that are better at "greenhousing" than the atmosphere you're adding them to.
