What is meant by the term greenhouse effect listing the three most significant greenhouse gases?

The term "greenhouse effect" is made up of two different effects: "Natural and Man-made". There is a "natural" greenhouse effect that keeps the Earth's climate warm and habitable. There is also the "man-made" greenhouse effect, which is the enhancement of Earth's natural greenhouse effect by the addition of greenhouse gases from the burning of fossil fuels (mainly petroleum, coal, and natural gas). The three most significant green houses gases and the amount they contribute are water vapor (80%), carbon dioxide (6%) and methane (1%). Nature produces 99.7% of all green house gas emissions.
