When heat from the sun enters a greenhouse through the glass most of the heat is captured inside and this is the exact same effect that is causing global warming on Earth. However, contrary to a normal greenhouse, the Earth does not have any glass surrounding it. Instead, the atmosphere consists of several “greenhouse gases” (Natural greenhouse gases include: carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide) that cause the same effect as the glass does in a normal greenhouse.
Methane is the result of decomposition of organic waste in landfills. Nitrous oxide is emitted from most types of industry, agriculture and from combustion of solid wa...
