The greenhouse effect causes the earth's atmosphere to hold in more heat radiation than it should. It is caused by envirormentally harmful chemicals entering the atmosphere, like carbon dioxcide. This ,in turn, causes the global temperature to increase global warming.

Does carbon dioxide affect the earths atmosphere?

Carbon dioxide (CO2) from the burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, adds to the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This extra CO2 makes an enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming .
