The phenomenon that naturally warms Earth's lower atmosphere and surface is known as the greenhouse effect. This process occurs when certain gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor, trap heat from the sun, preventing it from escaping back into space. This trapped heat maintains a temperature conducive to life on Earth, creating a stable climate. Without the greenhouse effect, the planet would be too cold to support most forms of life.
