As more fossil fuels are burned for energy, carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere increase. This leads to the enhanced greenhouse effect, trapping more heat and causing global temperatures to rise. This can result in climate change, with impacts such as more frequent and severe weather events, rising sea levels, and disruptions to ecosystems.

Can all of the earths energy find its way out of earths atmosphere?

No. Most of Earth's stored energy is within matter and it will not "find its way out of earths atmosphere" on it's own. The only energy that leaves Earth is radiant energy (some heat, light, radio energy, etc) or matter that is thrown out of the atmosphere by cosmic collisions. Some particles and element (e.g. hydrogen) may also be lost to space as Earth orbits our sun.
