Question
What is the reason behind the rising temperature inside a greenhouse?
Short Note
Solution
The temperature in a greenhouse rises because heat enters the house through the glass but cannot escape out, because the glass reflects the heat back to the inside of the house. This makes the glasshouse warmer than the outside environment.
