The greenhouse effect, caused by gases like carbon dioxide and methane trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere, is primarily responsible for the warming of the surface and lower atmosphere of Earth. This enhanced greenhouse effect is largely due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation.
Carbon dioxide is the primary gas responsible for warming the lower atmosphere through the greenhouse effect, where it traps heat from the Earth's surface. Other greenhouse gases like methane, water vapor, and nitrous oxide also contribute to this warming effect.
Global warming
The primary factor responsible for warming the Earth's climate is the increase in greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, in the atmosphere. These gases trap heat from the sun, causing the Earth's temperature to rise. This phenomenon is known as global warming.
An unnatural warming of the atmosphere near Earth's surface is called global warming or anthropogenic climate change. This phenomenon is primarily caused by human activities that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, trapping heat and leading to a rise in global temperatures.

Greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere absorb infrared radiation emitted by the Earth's surface. This absorption traps heat in the atmosphere, leading to the warming of the Earth's surface. This process is known as the greenhouse effect.

Warming of the surface.
The visible light and infrared radiation from the Sun are primarily responsible for heating Earth's surface. Visible light is absorbed by the Earth's surface, warming it up, while infrared radiation is absorbed by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, trapping heat and contributing to the greenhouse effect.
The process most responsible for temperature changes is the greenhouse effect, where certain gases in the Earth's atmosphere trap heat from the sun and prevent it from escaping back into space, leading to a warming of the Earth's surface.
An unnatural warming of the atmosphere near Earth's surface is called global warming or anthropogenic climate change. This phenomenon is primarily caused by human activities that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, trapping heat and leading to a rise in global temperatures.

greenhouse effect
There are several gases responsible for global warming, but the main ones are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). These greenhouse gases trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to the warming of the Earth's surface.
