  1. Man's burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) which releases long-hidden carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
  2. Man's deforestation. The great forests of the world used to absorb and store much of the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

The extra CO2 is turning the natural greenhouse effect into an accelerated greenhouse effect, causing global warming.

What are the two main greenhouse gases causing global warming?

The two main greenhouse gases causing global warming are carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). These gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to an increase in global temperatures and contributing to climate change.


What does global warming do to the ozone layer?

The ozone hole has little if nothing to do with global warming. The ozone hole is the thinning of the ozone layer, particularly over the south pole, where the extreme cold causes extreme thinning. Global warming is the rising temperature of the earth's atmosphere caused by human deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels.


How are fossil fuels and forrests linked to the greenhouse effect?

when you burn fossil fuels you get greenhouse gasses but that causes global warming so that causes two damages to the earth and enviorment.


Is greenhouse effect is the other name of global warming?

Strictly speaking there is no other name for global warming."The whole earth heating up" might be another name.Global warming is causing climate change, so many people think they are both the same, so they say:"Climate change is another name for global warming", but they are not really the same.

How will global warming get wors?

Global warming will get worse if we, firstly, increase in pollution and secondly, the increase in deforestation. Trees take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide (CO2). When they get destroyed, there is nothing to take in oxygen, but it keeps releasing CO2 which enhances the grennhouse effect and thereafter causes global warming. I am sure there are many other things which may cause global warming, but theses two are the only ones I am able to think of. Sorry for any inconvenience.
