Global warming is linked to the atmosphere on multiple fronts:

Solar Radiation: The sun warms the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Atmospheric Composition: The composition of the atmosphere determines the severity of the greenhouse effect. Since the Industrial Revolution we have been releasing more and more carbon dioxide by burning fossil fuel (300 million-year-old carbon). This extra carbon is causing the accelerated greenhouse effect.

Global warming is the result of increases in what?

Global warming is the result of increases in greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere, which trap heat and lead to a warming trend in global temperatures. Other factors such as deforestation and industrial activities also contribute to global warming by releasing additional greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.


What traps heat in the atmosphere, leading to the phenomenon of global warming?

Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, causing global warming.

No Globalisation is to do with world communication and connection and global warming is an increase in the temperature of Earth's atmosphere.


Does the Ozone layer in atmosphere prevents the global warming?

Yes, it does. Global warming and ozone depletion are connected with each other.


Can volcanoes cause global warming?

Yes, volcanoes can contribute to global warming by releasing greenhouse gases and aerosols into the atmosphere.


Is there a link between tornadoes and global warming?

So far no conclusive link has been found between tornadoes and global warming. Extra heat in the atmosphere is a form of energy, and energy drives tornadoes. Scientists predict that global warming will cause more frequent and more severe "weather events". Climate, however, takes time to change so it is unclear yet what is happening.
