Answer 1

We can essentially rule out the sun as a cause of global warming over the past few decades because while the temperature of the earth has increased over the period, the amount of incoming sunlight has substantially decreased.

The more prevalent causes can be pollution simultaneously resulting in the depletion of ozone layer in the stratosphere. The gases emitted from cars, air conditioners, refrigerators, industries, etc. are greenhouse gases, that prevent the heat from the earth's surface to escape out, thus trapping it inside.

This process is what we call greenhouse effect, resulting into global warming and rise in the temperature of the earth's atmosphere.
