The earth's atmosphere can cause global warming because molecules in the atmosphere are warmed by radiation from Earth and retain that heat.
The extremely quick rise in the planet's average surface temperature over the past century is known as global warming, and it is mostly caused by greenhouse gases that are emitted when people burn fossil fuels.Greenhouse gas emissions are the cause of global warming. Carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, and nitrous oxide together account for 72% of all greenhouse gas emissions (NOx). Therefore, carbon dioxide emissions are the main contributor to global warming. Fuels such as oil, natural gas, diesel, organic-diesel, gasoline, organic-petrol, and ethanol must be burned in order to release CO2. Within the previous 50 years, CO2 emissions have substantially grown and continue to rise by about 3% year.
