संक्षेप में उत्तर
उत्तर
Global warming is caused by the greenhouse effect:-
- The heating of the Earth’s atmosphere due to trapped infrared rays reflected from the Earth’s surface by atmospheric gases is called the greenhouse effect.
- An increase in the amount of carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere retains the heat energy of the Sun and increases the Earth’s temperature. This results in global warming.
