Mostly the greenhouse effect. Its kinda like when you leave a car outside for a long time, the sun lets in heat in the car but the windows block the heat from coming out. So the car gets really hot in the sun. A greenhouse is a room with huge windows to grow plants. It lets the sun in and traps the suns heat to grow the plants. The earth lets in the suns energy, the energy goes to the plants and us and stuff, and then when it is realeased, CO2(Carbon Dioxide) works as the window from letting it escape. Kindof as a blanket to our world. So the heat and energy is trapped-causing our world to warm. So the more CO2 we release, the more we cause globle warming. CO2 is released when we burn things like oil, coal and gas. THATS why we try not to drive as much and are protesting against power plants and are trying to save energy. Because the more of thoughs things that are used cause our world to became a dangerouse place to live in. And yes, the gas prices rising have to do a lot with globle warming, as well. Infact probly 70% of what you hear on the news will be able to relate to globle warming.
